Blogging Lawsuit

I just read an interesting entry over at Andy MacIsaac’s blog First Maine Forward. Apparently, a blogger in the State of Maine is getting sued by the Maine Department of Tourism due to criticism he posted on his blog about Maine’s latest ad campaign proposal. As Andy points out, this seems rather ludicrous and basically opens the blogosphere to litigation. What if I absolutely hate a book on the Civil War and rip it to shreds? Am I then subject to a lawsuit? What a crazy world we live in.
