How not to understand the Internet
Interesting story.
(since posted, the ad agency has withdrawn their lawsuit. The popularity of blogs directed the media, which directed a politician, which directed a counter-campaign to retract ‘whatever we said’.)
Lance Dutson, a blogger at the Maine Web Report (was) being sued by an ad agency for criticizing an ad developed for the Maine Office of Tourism. They (were) claiming defamation, libel and copyright infringement because Lance placed a copy of this ad on his site, and dared to criticize the fact that instead of the proper Maine tourism number, the ad agency placed a number that rings through to a phone sex line.
