Free Speech Wins!

In 2010 Tom Chandler published a short article about San Francisco Chronicle Outdoor Writer Tom Stienstra’s arrest in the Trout Underground. Despite the fact the story was almost identical to the articles published in many of the state’s largest newspapers, Stienstra wanted it taken down, and filed a defamation lawsuit in order to try and make that happen.

Apparently Stienestra had been partaking in a little to much of the product he was arrested for growing when he filed the suit because a judge has ruled in favor of Chandler and the Underground.

Way to go TC!
