Re: Slander is not protected speech
Everen:
Judd has already admitted that he posted using the unpronouncable_cymbal alias and that when he sent email from Yahoo using that alias it came with the name Joseph (Joey) Goodman attached.
Judd has also admitted posting that felonious death threat online under yet another alias. It would be hard to deny in any case as he once posted under that same alias and signed the message with "Judd Bagley".
So spare us all the whining about slander, it is clear that Judd Bagley, now an Overstock employee, has frequently lied, has used many aliases, has sent and posted bugged messages, has posted death threats, has stalked people, has libeled people, has posted Amazon book reviews under a fake name, has ignored Bob O' Brien's self-reviews of Bob's books on Amazon and has generally behaved like someone whose sense of right and wrong stopped developing at the age of 4.
You might find it useful to stop and wonder why Patrick Byrne surrounds himself with people like Bob and Judd.
