ブロガーも名誉毀損責任保険が必要に?

OJRの記事によると、個人のブログに書かれた内容であっても、名誉毀損で訴えられる可能性があるということです。

Just ask Ton Cremers. He operated a Web site and listserv devoted to museum security and stolen art. Cremers received an e-mail from a man named Robert Smith, who identified himself as a building contractor in North Carolina. Smith told Cremers that he overheard a client, Ellen J. Batzel, state that she was the granddaughter of Nazi Gestapo chief Heinrich Himmler. Smith concluded that numerous works of art in Batzel's home had been stolen during World War II.

Cremers posted Smith's e-mail, with some minor wording changes, to the Museum Security Network Web site ..... Batzel sued Smith, Cremers and the Museum Security Network for defamation.
