Cartoonists Lawyer Responds To FunnyJunk: The Oatmeal Will Not Cave

The Oatmeal wrote a blog post complaining about his content being made available on FunnyJunk. There is no dispute that large quantities of his content were indeed available viaFunnyJunk. To the extent FunnyJunk wishes to make clear that it has removed The Oatmeals content and that it should not be held responsible for the availability of this content on its site, it has an easy avenue to do so: FunnyJunk can publish a statement or a blog post to this effect.This would be the appropriate and First Amendment-friendly course of action for a website (that presumably shares the free speech concerns of the internet at large). In any event, FunnyJunks claims are meritless, and The Oatmeal will prevail in any litigation involving FunnyJunks threatened claims.To be clear, The Oatmeal will not cave in to FunnyJunks attempts to censor him through legal threats and bullying.
