There's a story doing the rounds about the Harry's place blog being dropped by its ISP following a libel complaint from one Jenna Delich. (Apparently the fact that the article in question referred directly to a post made by Ms Delich on the UCU activist list is irrelevant.)
The offending post was one drawing attention to a post by Ms Delich, linking in a positive fashion to a piece on David Duke's site. (For those unfamiliar, David Duke is a former Grand Wizard of the knights of the Ku Klux Klan and general all round tosser.)
Ms Delich followed the link with the comment
"No comment necessary. The facts are speaking for themselves"
which any reasonable person would agree is an endorsement of the article to which she was linking.
Harry's place have thankfully been able to find a more robust ISP, and will hopefully be able to continue operating free from harrasment. It is however a sad indictment of the hard left that when presented with a situation like this, the first instinct is not to appologise for the mistake (If it was such) but to attempt to shut down the site which embarressed them and to maliciously accuse their opponents.
