"Burger" from Sex in the City Ron Livingston has filed a lawsuit against an anonymous Wikipedia editor for repeatedly altering his entry on the free encyclopedia to claim Livingston is gay.
Livingston’s lawsuit against “John Doe” will likely give him the power to subpoena Wikipedia and Facebook to find out the real perpetrator or perpetrators.
Ben Sheffner, a Hollywood copyright attorney says "It’s a very interesting issue; Obviously many people don’t like being falsely called gay, but some gay rights activists argue that to permit a defamation action for a false accusation of homosexuality perpetuates the harmful notion that there is something wrong, or shameful, about being gay. Indeed, a New York federal court recently ruled that a false accusation of homosexuality is not defamatory per se."
Are you telling me that this is the worst thing he has been called, get a sense of hummor Livingston.
