Kudo's to TMMI taking action against the malicious
Post# of 1084
IHUB is continuing with it's appalling censorship of responses to "Smitty's" cheap shot at management for taking this action. I for one applaud TMMI for taking action against these creeps and hope TMMI gets justice for the damages caused.
"Smitty" thinks that the first amendment and free speech allows one to spread false and misleading information. He apparently is oblivious to the legal ramifications of Defamation ...
defamation
Defamation is a statement that injures a third party's reputation. The tort of defamation includes both libel (written statements) and slander (spoken statements).
To win a defamation case, a plaintiff must show four things: 1) a false statement purporting to be fact; 2) publication or communication of that statement to a third person; 3) fault; and 4) damages, or some harm caused to the person or entity who is the subject of the statement.
