GUEST,lawrence resident BS: Pamela Greenbaum Sues Blogger Orthomom (86* d) RE: BS: Pamela Greenbaum Sues Blogger Orthomom 06 Mar 07


This suit is ridiculous. Orthomom did not call Greenbaum any of the names mentioned in the suit. In addition, no one AT ALL called Greenbaum "anti-semitic"(Greenbaum curiously claims that orthomom "implied" she was an anti-semite rather than saying she actually called her one outright. Does that mean I can't "imply" GWB is a warmongering fascist?). An anonymous commenter called Greenbaum a "bigot", and did so in response to a quote of Ms. Greenbaum's as reported in a newspaper. The quote was in regards to her positions on aid to private school students (she came out unequivocally against it). Also, the comment thread Ms. Greenbaum refers to in her complaint has more than a hundred comments that run the gamut from supportive of Greenbaum, abusive of Orthomom, etc. It is clear that the comment calling Ms. Greenbaum a bigot holds no more water than a comment calling other board members names (which exist in the same thread). To my eyes, and I am a local, it seems that greenbaum is not intending to file a libel suit at all (she has no case) but simply trying to unmask Orthomom or at least silence her criticism.
