Good Post on US Libel Law and Blogging (w/ ref to comments)

Mindy McAdams has written a useful round-up of current case law (US) and thinking around bloggers' legal responsibility for libelous comments posted on their blogs.

The situation - and defamation law - is much different in the UK where there have been a number of libel cases lodged against blogs and their publishers over the past few weeks.
