Skanks in New York – Liskula Cohen – Libel, Defamation or Internet Playground Politics?
Get Social!
Jewish-Canadian model Liskula Cohen is demanding that Google reveal the identity of the Blogger.com user whose Skanks in NYC blog is totally and entirely dedicated to calling her a ’skank’ an ‘old hag’ and other flattering descriptions.
According to the New York Daily News, the 36-year-old model has filed a defamation suit in New York’s Manhattan Supreme Court with the hope that she can find out exactly who believes she’s a:
“…psychotic, lying, whoring, still going to clubs at her age, skank”.
and
“Don’t you guys think she should grow and an get on with her life? I mean really, 40 year old women (or in her case that look 40) shouldn’t be out at night looking and acting like ho’s.”
Cohen said the blog is, “…petty, it’s stupid and it’s pathetic. And when I do find out who did this, at least I’ll know who my enemies are.” And then added:
“I’m tall, I’m blond, I’ve been modeling for many years, and people get jealous. If I had to deal with everyone who is jealous, I wouldn’t have time to do anything else.”
Cohen previously appeared on the cover of Vogue, as well as for both Armani and Versace. In 2007, she claimed her modelling career was prematurely ended by an horrific incident in which a Manhattan doorman hit her in the face with a champagne bottle.
Google is keeping quiet about the case and refuses to issue a statement.
Unfortunately, malware marketing snakes have poisoned Google with the term ’skanks in nyc,’ with links that push Antivirus 2009,” warned Alex Eckelberry, CEO of Sunbelt Software, in a blog post on Tuesday.
Hey... Great to see you back!
She needs to get a life. Her career is over and she is now looking for someway to stay in the limelight. About time people like this took criticisms and moved on, I would like her to tell me she has never called anyone a “Skank”.
Who said there is nothing like bad publicity eh!
