> Ohio is once again, frontier country. The Ohio Supreme Court handed down an opinion on June 9 finding that Ohio 
> businesses can sue in their home state for defamation posted on the internet if it can be shown that anyone in that 
> state saw it. This decision overturned the lower court's ruling that a Virginia man could not be sued in Ohio by an 
> Ohio business for the defamatory comments he allegedly published on various websites. [SNIP]
