I'm guessing that one thing you might be able to do is petition your congressman, it's a long shot but someone has to start the ball rolling. Somewhere in the future website owners will have to take responsibility if they are going to allow things posted to their sites that can be damaging they should contact the person who it's being said about and get their side of things.If Google can slap you and all your pages disappear from their search engines,Yahoo and MSN I am sure that it can be undone if it's been cached. In which case if the information is bogus it should be eliminated.The big boys created technology that proper gates the problem and they should be responsible enough to clean it up, also requiring a higher standard be used to allow posting anything. The easiest question to ask is...Do you know this to be true from personal stand point? If not They have to state so, and at that point it can be traced and handled through an arbitration stand point. Just saying-any negative information is harmful and I think the big boys need to belly up to the bar on this one and I am sure they will have too in the future. Someone will demand it of them. People forget but its nice to know something is being done in the way of damage control.
