Getty Image Settlement Demand Letter: Scam or For Real?
« on: April 27, 2012, 11:21:29 PM »
Just wanted to share this info found while Google searching. I have not seen this one before so I thought that I would share. I particularly enjoyed reading quite a few of the comments below the article. Comments are still on going. Last entry date April 24th, 2012.

Enjoy!

I read through most of the comments.  Fairly typical stuff. Outrage, anger, disgust, and the gambit of emotions and reactions we seen here on the ELI Forums.

Lahle Wolfe has done a great job with her take on About.com articles and she does occasionally engage her audience unlike some Canadian lawyer blogger I know of who just collects comments for kicks and giggles. We also appreciate she mentions us in another article she wrote about the Extortion Letters. I respect that she is doing her part in fighting this using the About.com platform. I'd like to do an interview of her sometime.
I'm a non-lawyer but not legally ignorant either. Under the 1st Amendment, I have the right to post facts & opinions using rhetorical hyperbole, colloquialisms, metaphors, parody, snark, or epithets. Under Section 230 of CDA, I'm only responsible for posts I write, not what others write.
