I may be wearing the foil hat a bit too tight right about now, but earlier today, I just had this eerie feeling that a war over the right to free speech was about to erupt. First we have The Enlightened and Exalted Eminent Emancipator and Supreme Benev…

Now, anyone researching JL Kirk on the web will find out about it. They’ve probably done more damage with this than her original post did. In other news, don’t send bloggers stuff that makes you look like an asshat. They tend to blog about it.

Don’t pick a fight with someone who can harvest all the fully recyclable electrons they want with open source blogging software, or something like that. We need an analogy for the olde “ink by the barrel” saying.

“Your title in contrast to what she actually wrote brings up a good point. In order for them to find her liable for defamation they would have to prove that she did in fact, as I paraphrase what you wrote, ‘call them asshats’.” … and etc.

I completely misread the intent of your headline.

I didn’t think you meant “is it ok for this other blogger to call these guys asshats?”

I thought you meant “These guys are asshats. Is it ok for me to say so?”

I guess I was wrong, huh?

Wikipedia articles tend to be highly favored in Google searches, and it would also bring some more attention to their actions.

But if they did metulj, Andy Axel, and Randy Neal would most probably take the side of JL Kirk & Associates and tell Kat Coble she was wrong and to take the posts off her blog.

Some people don’t get it.

JL Kirk & Associates could easily have lost several hundred thousand dollars today in lost commissions.

Is there any doubt by this time tomorrow “Kirk” and “Kirked” will be new Internet verbs?

I think they just Kirked themselves.

That’s it. I rest my case. Once again I am found to be inconfident. doh!

competent

I’m such an asshat.

…But she didn’t. She was very careful in how she wrote how she THOUGHT they were “asshats”. I believe this is probably enough of a semantic distinction to provide her an ‘out’ instead of actually having to prove in court that they were not, in fact, actual head-wear of the ass or regions there about.

…But then again, they could try to prove her confident enough to make that distinction: between ‘asshats’ and employees of an employment agency, thereby concluding that her intentions were, indeed, defamatory.

I dunno.

But who is “Trustworthy” enough to do so?
