Being Jonathan Marshall: Part II

Ahh, it justs gets better. The site put together to give online tabloid sleaze-merchant Jonathan Marshall a bit of stick has been handed a 'cease and desist' order from Marshall's lawyers, and has thus taken all its (very amusing) content offline pending further advice. It's all very ironic, considering Marshall is doing exactly the same thing over at his tabloid site, and is avoiding legal strife (so far) by hiding behind the vague nature of defamation laws with regards to offshore sites (which, incidentally, the owners of this site could do as well, hosted as it is by the US-based Angelfire.com). As the 'Being Jonathan Marshall' editor points out...

It appears that Jonathan Marshall's sense of humour and belief in freedom of the press does not extend to anything mentioning himself.

Maybe the 'Being Jonathan Marshall' site owners should have registered the site using a false Nepalese address as well?
