Model Says Blogger is Female Acquaintance

A magazine model said she finally confronted an anonymous female blogger who called her offensive names on a Google Web site.

Liskula Cohen, who successfully sued Google to unmask the blogger, told "Good Morning America" that she called her tormentor and said she forgives her.

Cohen did not reveal the blogger's name but said she was an acquaintance whom Cohen saw at parties and restaurants.

The Vogue cover girl says she has not ruled out suing the blogger.

"Why should anybody let it go? If somebody attacks somebody on the street, you're not going to let it go," Cohen told "Good Morning America" Wednesday. "I couldn't find one reason to ignore it."

The anonymous remarks targeting Cohen's hygiene and sexual habits were posted on Google's Blogger.com. The blogger wrote the words "skanky," "ho," and "whoring" under pictures of the model, Cohen said.

Google refused to release the name of the blogger until Cohen took the company to court.

The blogger's lawyer, Anne Salisbury, had argued that although the comments may have been disgusting they were opinions and protected as free speech.
