If I remember right there were a number of suits regarding this issue. The ruling was that the administrator / owner of a website could only be held liable for information posted on his or her site if:
The administrator continued to keep it posted after being informed by injured party that the posted information was untrue.
the ruling came down within the last two years or so I am pretty sure it made it to the Supreme Court and was affirmed
