Man Sues Creator Of Web Site That Lets Women Dish Dirt On Men
Man Sues Creator Of Web Site That Lets Women Dish Dirt On Men

POSTED: 12:06 pm EDT June 30, 2006

PITTSBURGH -- A city attorney is suing the creator of a Web site that lets women dish dirt on men they claim have wronged them, saying they made defamatory statements about him.

Attorney Todd J. Hollis sued because he contends two Pittsburgh-area women and other anonymous users posted items about him on www.dontdatehimgirl.com in which they claim he is unfaithful, among other things, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Thursday.

Hollis filed the suit Thursday in Allegheny County against Tasha C. Joseph of Miami, who created the site, which bills itself as a "cost-effective weapon in the war on cheating men."

Joseph, 33, a former columnist for the Miami Herald, said any man can post a rebuttal on the site.

Lida Rodriguez-Taseff, an attorney representing Joseph, said the site is no different than the proverbial coffee shop where people go and chitchat."

3. Dumb.
Why isn't he trying to sue the women who wrote the statements? I see a judge laughing this one of court.

9. Googled him. He lives w/ his mommy & practices law out of Mom's kitchen
He's listed on one of those find a lawyer sites, where lawyers who don't work for firms list themselves. Then I googled his "office" address. It's a 1,000 sq. ft., 3 bdrm., 1 bath ranch that his Mom lives in. Sounds like a real winner, ladies!
