"People hide behind these shields and think they can just post anything," said David Fish, a lawyer for Franklin. "Hopefully, we can put a stop to this."

Carla needs a reality check. :laugh:
If I sued everyone that ever called me a whore I'd be richer than Bill Gates. :zoinks:
...95% of the time it came from other "women" who knew nothing about me, and either didn't approve of the way I dressed or the way that I acted. ::)

I think that Carla Franklin is very fortunate if being called a whore on YouTube is the worst thing that has ever happened to her.
It's particularly ironic that she was quoted in the article as saying:
