If you host or moderate a blog with public access, you may want to read this Sack Goldblatt Mitchell article , from which “ … The defendants were not alleged to have been the authors of the defamatory posts, but rather moderators who had the ability to publish or delete the allegedly defamatory comments.”
As usual, for us, it’s not a question of who wins or loses – but the resources expended in making or denying these sorts of claims.
If you are a moderator, be aware of your responsibilities.
Especially if, like me, you have the ability to publish or delete comments.
