Ya see, a little more than a week or so back,
rubble rousing attorney Herb S. Moncier, presumably representing current Knox
County GOP chairwoman, Ruthie Kuhlman, sent blogger Brian Hornback a note,
telling him that he needed to correct, retract and say he’s sorry for some of
his blog posts.
(I’m not sure which ones, but they had something
to do with overheard conversations regarding Kuhlman.)
Moncier apparently gave Hornback 10 days to do
this.
Well, the rogue fired back on Friday, with his
own letter, saying he has no intention of doing any such thing.
You can find that bad boy, right smack here.
This could get interesting on a number of
levels. Moncier is not afraid to sue. He probably holds the Death Star record.
Kuhlman is a public figure, so it would be hard for her to win. But, it’s also
interesting on the level of what role a blogger plays, the freedom of speech
thing, the whatever.
Hornback also can be a polarizing figure in the
local political circles, so – no matter what people say – my suspicion
is that a lot of folks will watch this closely, particularly if it goes
further.

Sources are sources, the individuals that overheard the statements still stand behind what they heard. I suspect had I revealed the identity of sources all would be happy.
