Cops sue to get names of bloggers
July 29, 2008 - 12:11pm — mdoneil
The head of the Memphis police department has sued to find out the names of bloggers who post information critical of his department.
The City has asked that AOL turn over the identities of AOL addresses that have posted to the blog noted the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
The First Amendment allows us the freedom to express our opinion about our government officials, what possible reason could the City have for needing the identities of the bloggers?
