Police Director Sues AOL For Critical Blogger's Name

Posted by samzenpus on from the tell-us-everything dept.

Pippin writes "Memphis Police Director, Larry Godwin, is suing AOL for the names of the authors of the Enforcer 2.0 blog. The blog is rumored to be authored by a Memphis police officer, and is critical of the department, Godwin, and some procedures. Godwin is actually using taxpayer dollars for this and, interestingly, the complaint is sealed".

    Now your just being moronic. If you would have been paying attention to the feds recently, you will know that they have stepped in at several time in several areas. Zanesville Ohio, comes to mind, there has been more in other areas too.

    Only if the thread is irrational

    What discussion thread isn't? The empty thread?

    One where no girls are involved.

    I would say I am going to be modded down for this, but considering there are 0 females on Slashdot, I'm not too worried.
