Dan Hunter posts on (confused) threats he’s received from the proprietor of an online game whose press releases Dan had the temerity to suggest might be slightly inflated.
As one of the commentators to his post noted, sending this sort of threat to a tenured law professor and/or his Dean, is “like playing chicken with a freight train.”
(Incidentally, guys, oral defamation is slander, written defamation is libel. Get your threats right.)
