Rosemary Port is the name of the blogger whose name was made public by Google after she called model Liskula Cohen a skank on her Blogger.com blog. The model is now suing Rosemary Port for damages and it appears Port is now suing Google for $15 million for not maintaining her anonymity.
The blogger who penned the now-infamous “skank” hatchet job on model Liskula Cohen is demanding $15 million in damages from Google, accusing thecompany of, in the words of her attorney, “breaching its fiduciary duty to protect her expectation of anonymity.” The blogger, Rosemary Port, told the New York Daily News in an interview over the weekend that Cohen actually “defamed herself” and that Port’s right to an opinion should be protected. To review: Port attacked Cohen on the “Skanks of New York” blog last year, posting suggestive pictures of Cohen and adding comments that called Cohen a “skank,” a “ho” and other unsavory terms. Cohen, a Vogue model, sued Google in January to obtain Port’s identity. Google’s role in the case is that it owns Blogger.com, the service on which the “Skanks” blog was hosted before it was taken down in March. Last week, a judge ruled in Cohen’s favor, ordering Google to give up Port’s identity. In response, Port told the Daily News that she plans to file a $15 million federal lawsuit against Google
