But you need a person to be named in an allegation, and only then it becomes defamation? Lawyer pedes pls help out. Is there a case if bunch of anons are called criminals?
No, not much of a case. Because our group is so large and mostly anonymous, false accusations don't really implicate any one of us. The "intensity of the suspicion" isn't very strong. As long as Fox doesn't go after the individual, or give details that might lead readers to figure out who the individual is, there's not much of a case.
