A lawsuit that results in enough $$ to buy deluxe versions of those new servers or whatever it is that is needed would be nice; that, and an apology.

This is transparently malicious. It wouldn’t take 5 minutes for them to investigate and realize the FR doesn’t host anything but text and html.

Notice is doesn't say 'alleged'? They make it sound like an unquestionable fact. This is outrageous.

Nail 'em Mr. Robinson.

I hope JR makes Jeff Bercovici prove his allegation in court, and AOL also (where the big money is).

Ironic. AOL chat rooms were notorious hangouts for pedophiles.

Are they referring to back a few years ago when a few libs joined and kept posting porn pics in threads for about a week.

As fast as you could ban one another one posted a nasty pic.

I think this might get you that new bass rig you’ve been wanting. Maybe a whole fleet of ‘em.

“returning to his previous gig with Gawker”

The guy’s only prior experience was writing bon mots about Paris Hilton and Julia Allison party events so he must struggle to actually write articles about real subjects. He is sort of an internet version of Jayson Blair.

Slander might be tough to prove, as he could have written such an article, but the claim of Outrage or False Light would be better.

Call Liberty Counsel, a national Conservative lawyers’ group Hq in Orlando.

They could file in the Rocket Docket so Kristinn could watch the proceedings. :)

Reporter fed up with Yahoo

(snip)

“In one instance, Cook was forced to bowdlerize a quotation from New York Times reporter James Risen; he was told that referring to masturbation, even euphemistically, was unacceptable. On similar grounds, he was prohibited from writing about the conservative website Free Republic hosting child pornography. Most glaringly, he was told that a proposed story on the Obama Administration raising the salary of White House staffers by 9% lacked the necessary balance; it was killed.”

Cook told him: “I really valued being able to write what I think without somebody worrying about whether it will upset somebody, or meets the sort of balancing test that newspapers apply to themselves.”

Andrew Golis, who runs The Upshot, wrote on his blog Wednesday. “John’s a brilliant reporter, but he decided that he prefers the license Gawker gave him to add his opinions into his reporting to the scale and credibility Yahoo! News could offer.”

Cook is heading back to Gawker. The question for Yahoo, AOL and other portals edging their way into the content business is whether other journalists will see them as a liberating leap from the MSM—or large corporations with overzealous editing.

“The Internet giant AOL “

They still exist? I thought they went out of business years ago.

Wonder why they include those neat little mini Frisbees in every magazine anymore?
