    Yeah? The comments are based on published, publicly available claims made by others that she has not sued the original author over. Plus, disclosure could be fun. Go for it.

      in legalese, that’s the “find out” from the latin “Fuck around and find out”

    What the fuck is this “on notice” bullshit?

    He got a cease and desist, or lawsuit threat.

    Am I just getting old and I can’t understand the news anymore?

      i think it is to some extent up to us to regulate this, which is good and bad. I would also be interested in other news instances, but it seems like all of them have some amount of garbage linked sources. I just try to call it out in the comments so other people will double check on the validity of the headline as well. Community moderation may be better than a single moderator with the power of ‘censoring’ the whole instance. Also, by writing really long paragraphs like this maybe we can draw peoples eyes to the fact that our up/down votes also regulate what links/sources get traction and that catchy headlines may not be enough to warrant a vote up.
