The Blackbox Debate
Thu, 2 Nov 2006, 07:24 pmI write regarding the closure and censorship of the below thread - Blackbox Management: Good or Bad?
http://www.theatre.asn.au/node/5973
I recently had a young actress write to me and ask a question about her agency, so I sent her this link. It is a tradgic shame that dozens of people's comments have been censored, but I respect Theatre Australia for having posted that these messages were deleted as a result of one John W. of Blackbox Management. It is made clear to everyone what is really going on.
This young actress was, suffice it to say, not happy in her current situation. Will you delete my post for saying that?
The way to avoid being sued
Mon, 6 Nov 2006, 08:03 amThe way to avoid being sued (because defamation and libel are civil actions) is to tell only what can be supported by evidence as truth. Stated opinion is another issue. It is theoetically a defence to use the term "alleged" or "in my opinion" thereby removing the claim to fact. I do not believe that many of the posts on the BMA thread were defamatory as many of them simply repeated what we all say. Do your homework.
Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing.
