This is shaping up to be a fun one. I can't give details until I get permission from the higher-ups to make a stink, but ANOTHER of my blogs (on a different site) has managed to cause a ruckus. I must be doing something right!
Received a very poorly spelled cease and desist letter from a rehabilitation facility after I linked in a blog post to someone on a well-known forum claiming to have been mistreated at said facility. Despite that it is an exact quote, sourced properly, and I also presented the other side (the facility is generally highly regarded, and found a person from the same forum with a GOOD experience there to quote as well), and that it is NOT an opinion piece but merely a news piece covering an interesting perspective on a major news story, this facility feels they have the right to sic their lawyers on me if I don't pull the post down.
Awesome Boss Lady says that I should not only ignore their request, but also publish it and make a big stink about them being bullies. Cool Boss Man is considering ABL's proposal.
Will you guys visit me in jail if it comes to it?
