That might save FR, but it doesn't save the posters. It says opinions. It would be up to the courts to prove otherwise. It's on every page. Every FReeper can see it.
I'm posting opinions - just like it says. How about you?

I don't know about you, but I would rather buy Christmas presents for my children then cough up the cash to defend myself against the ACLU and Felos.

I just couldn't stay out of the fray.
It says opinions.
It may say that, but that doesn't save a post that is clearly an assertion of fact. Such a post might hypothetically be, e.g., "I know for a fact that Michael Schiavo has lied about abusing Terri Schiavo." By making that hypothetical post a poster would be making an assertion of fact.
It would be up to the courts to prove otherwise.
Actually it would be up the plaintiff in such a suit to prove libel.
