If you’ve ever felt the urge to complain about your boss/landlord/etc. on Twitter, you might want to think again. A woman in Chicago is being sued for defamation based on a Tweet she wrote. The Plaintiff is asking for $50,000 plus court costs. Marian Wang of the Chicago Bar-Tender is one of a growing number of bloggers who are following the case. Her post also includes a link to the complaint that was filed in Cook County Circuit Court.

This case is just one of the many examples we highlight in our popular Public Sleuthing on Social Networks. Our next class coming up in August is full but keep your eyes open for class dates this fall!
