Golfer Sues Over Vandalized Wikipedia Entry 267
coondoggie writes "Pro golfer Fuzzy Zoeller is suing to track down the author of what Zoeller says is a defamatory paragraph about him on the Wikipedia site. In an Associated Press story Zoeller's attorney, Scott Sheftall, said he filed a lawsuit against a Miami firm last week because the law won't allow him to sue Wikipedia."

Is that the one that says the number of lawsuits he's filing against Wikipedia has tripled in the last six months?
Well, his name is Fuzzy. (Score:2, Funny)

Unprecedented in the 759 years of American History. When Wikipedia was formed at the Magna Carta Summit I'm sure they never thought this would happen.

He's suing the correct person for (if the accusations are true - and you've seen Wikipedia troll edits, they probably are) a legitimate reason. So the story is that he's not an idiot suing Wikipedia like the rest of the idiots would?
I'm guessing you're from somewhere in the United States of America?

Hmm. Someone tells lies about you that might damage your reputation or livelihood. You want them to stop. Do you
a.) send someone to break their kneecaps
b.) smear shit all over their car
c.) call them lies back and sleep with their sister
d.) follow the legal remedy that has been established for centuries and appeal for relief against the harmful action?
Oh that's right. Except in America, the right thing to do is (b).
Depends on how hot their sister is, otherwise it's poo time.
