Angered Model Strikes A Pose At Google

(CBS)  Canadian model Liskula Cohen has never shied away from gracing magazine covers or modeling for fashion icons like Armani and Versace. But her successful career is now forcing her to go on the defensive against an anonymous Internet blogger with a serious grudge.

It marks the latest case of cyberbullying to make headlines: former Vogue cover girl vs. Google.

Cohen filed a lawsuit in Manhattan State Supreme Court hoping to reveal the identity of a person who anonymously posted insulting remarks, which she claims are defamatory and malicious, on a blog run by the search engine.

Most of the bloggers comments fixate on Cohen's alleged sexual behavior, often referring to her as a "skank."

Concerned about damage to her reputation Cohen is hoping a court order will force Google, which owns the blog site, to reveal the identity of the person responsible so she can proceed with a defamation lawsuit.

According to Lisa Bloom, a legal analyst for CBS' The Early Show, Cohen has a valid case against Google. "They have been put on notice," Bloom said.

Google responded to the claim by saying they sympathize with victims of cyberbulling but "take great care to respect privacy concerns and will only provide information about a user in response to a subpoena or other court order."

The First Amendment should have forbid any kind of insult, including insulting the Government and fashion models. What were our Founding Fathers thinking?

Whatever, this is such bullcrap grow some thick skin and get over yourself. Not everyones gonna think well of you in a positive way.

And for the person that said imagine if you were a child and you got teased like this. I spent the better part of my youth being teased for being a nerd, but you don''t see me filing suit against those idiots, jesus these rich people need to grow some thick skin and quit acting like big kids hitting babies with their huge sticks.
