Blogging and Privacy Protection
Doug anonymously posts a defamatory statement about Bob on a
popular website called CampusTrashMouths.com.
CampusTrashMouths.com acts, in essence, as a blog site open to
anonymous posters at all times. Bob does not know, however,
that Doug is the person who posted the statements about him
because CampusTrashMouth.com does not identify the names of
posters next to their comments. CampusTrashMouth.com, in
fact, does not edit or otherwise exercise any control over the
comments posted by others. Bob files a motion and subpoena to
compel CampusTrashMouth.com to reveal the identity of the
person who made the defamatory comments about him.
· Is it possible for Bob to compel CampusTrashMouth.com to
reveal Doug’s identity? Explain.
· If Bob instead sues CampusTrashMouth.com for defamation
for posting Doug’s comments, what is the primary reason Bob
will lose?
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support
your claims with examples from the assigned and/or
recommended resources, and properly cite any references.

Howard Cunningham Is Being Appointed for Office!
In 1968 Howard Cunningham was charged in Daytona Beach,
Florida, with having sex with a minor. Howard was a senior at
the University of Tennessee enjoying a spring break when he
had a brief fling with a young woman who, he said, told him she
was a junior at the University of Michigan, also on spring
break. Actually, she was a 15-year-old sophomore at Daytona
Beach High School. Because the girl was a minor, the court
hearing was held behind closed doors (This was possible in
1968). The judge ruled that Howard had technically violated the
law and found him guilty. But because the evidence regarding
what Howard actually knew or thought he knew about the girl's
age was ambiguous at best, the judge sentenced Howard to one-
year probation, which he could serve back in Tennessee. The
court record was never sealed, but stored in a file in a back
room at the courthouse.
Today Howard is a prominent Houston businessman who owns a
giant software company. He is active in community affairs and
the Republican Party. The White House announced in April that
Howard was being considered for appointment to the President's
Task Force on Interactive Media Services.
The Houston Sun received a package from Florida containing
the court file from the 1968 case. With the file was a letter from
the woman with whom Howard had sex in 1968. In the letter she
said she believed Howard had taken advantage of her, that she
had told him she was only 15 at the time, but that he forced
himself on her. Her family feared the publicity and refused to
let her fully prosecute the matter. She said she had followed
Howard's career and was appalled that he might be named to an
important government committee. She said it was time the truth
was told. She got the file, she said, from the courthouse. While
theoretically it had been open since it was filed, no one ever
looked at it because few people even knew it existed.
The Sun tried to contact Cunningham, but he refused to have
anything to do with the newspaper, which he said, was a “liberal
rag.” The paper sent a photographer to his house for a photo,
but he could not even reach the door of the gated property. He
instead waited on a public street outside the gate and took a
picture of Howard while he practiced putting a golf ball on the
front lawn. They used this photo with a story about the 1968
incident.
Howard sued the newspaper for invasion of privacy. He said the
Florida incident was ancient history, unknown to any of his
family members, business associates, and friends. He argued
that the publication of the story was clearly a publication of
private facts. When the photographer took his picture while he
was on his private property relaxing on his front lawn, this was
an intrusion upon his seclusion.
· What will Howard have to prove to win his private facts case?
Will he win the case? Explain your answer.
· What will Howard have to prove to win his intrusion case?
Will he win the case? Explain your answer.
· Would this case be decided differently if Howard was not a
public figure? Why or why not?
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support
your claims with examples from the assigned and/or
recommended resources, and properly cite any references.
Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.

CampusTrashMouths.com acts, in essence, as a blog site open to anonymous posters at all times. Bob does not know, however, that Doug is the person who posted the statements about him because CampusTrashMouth.com does not identify the names of posters next to their comments. CampusTrashMouth.com, in fact, does not edit or otherwise exercise any control over the comments posted by others. Bob files a motion and subpoena to compel CampusTrashMouth.com to reveal the identity of the person who made the defamatory comments about him. · Is it possible for Bob to compel CampusTrashMouth.com to reveal Doug’s identity? Explain. · If Bob instead sues CampusTrashMouth.com for defamation for posting Doug’s comments, what is the primary reason Bob will lose? Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length.

In 1968 Howard Cunningham was charged in Daytona Beach, Florida, with having sex with a minor. Howard was a senior at the University of Tennessee enjoying a spring break when he had a brief fling with a young woman who, he said, told him she was a junior at the University of Michigan, also on spring break. Actually, she was a 15-year-old sophomore at Daytona Beach High School. Because the girl was a minor, the court hearing was held behind closed doors (This was possible in 1968). The judge ruled that Howard had technically violated the law and found him guilty. But because the evidence regarding what Howard actually knew or thought he knew about the girl's age was ambiguous at best, the judge sentenced Howard to one- year probation, which he could serve back in Tennessee. The court record was never sealed, but stored in a file in a back room at the courthouse. Today Howard is a prominent Houston businessman who owns a giant software company. He is active in community affairs and the Republican Party. The White House announced in April that Howard was being considered for appointment to the President's Task Force on Interactive Media Services.
  • 4. The Houston Sun received a package from Florida containing the court file from the 1968 case. With the file was a letter from the woman with whom Howard had sex in 1968. In the letter she said she believed Howard had taken advantage of her, that she had told him she was only 15 at the time, but that he forced himself on her. Her family feared the publicity and refused to let her fully prosecute the matter. She said she had followed Howard's career and was appalled that he might be named to an important government committee. She said it was time the truth was told. She got the file, she said, from the courthouse. While theoretically it had been open since it was filed, no one ever looked at it because few people even knew it existed. The Sun tried to contact Cunningham, but he refused to have anything to do with the newspaper, which he said, was a “liberal rag.” The paper sent a photographer to his house for a photo, but he could not even reach the door of the gated property. He instead waited on a public street outside the gate and took a picture of Howard while he practiced putting a golf ball on the front lawn. They used this photo with a story about the 1968 incident. Howard sued the newspaper for invasion of privacy. He said the Florida incident was ancient history, unknown to any of his family members, business associates, and friends. He argued that the publication of the story was clearly a publication of private facts. When the photographer took his picture while he was on his private property relaxing on his front lawn, this was an intrusion upon his seclusion. · What will Howard have to prove to win his private facts case? Will he win the case? Explain your answer. · What will Howard have to prove to win his intrusion case? Will he win the case? Explain your answer. · Would this case be decided differently if Howard was not a public figure? Why or why not?
