I'm not sure if/how this affects us here at CUF, but given that a lot of news from the Cougs comes from the Trib, and there have been articles linked, I figured I would bring it to attention.

As another FYI, here is a list of some of the blogs that have been sued by RightHaven in regards to articles linked by the Las Vegas Journal. The Trib has recently hired RightHaven, so I wouldn't be shocked to see some out of court suits shortly.
