Heard the news?? Some scholar was sued for an article he put on his blog.. 11:10 PM • Friday, May 06, 2005
The true meaning of blog to me: An outlet to vent frustrations and to update what's going on around me. But now, this freedom is gone, you can be sued for putting what others think as an incorrect article or phrase.
A blog is supposed to be personal, so everyone can expect one sided stories, but just because he said something that the agency that sponsored his scholarship thinks is inaccurate and believes that it tarnishes their reputation, doesnt mean that he is correct. His side of the story maybe incorrect but like I said, a blog is a personal outlet, if that's what he think, he will write them down is it??
Isn't our country suppose to be a democratic country with the freedom of speech. But now, apparently, people can sue us of what we write on our blogs. We had lost this freedom fellow bloggers. I am disappointed, seriously. I thought a blog was somewhat like a personal diary, and I came to have one because I don't want to waste money to buy more diaries to write my daily entries. Poor me, I must mind what I say in future...
