Hopfully it will make teens or others slow down attacking others using public access sites. Your right about it being wiki's weak point, but until it was brought up, it would have been taken as truth. Go Fuzzy - from a non golfer but recognize his name and would also have assumed it as truth as published.

He may survive the special test required by law to be prosecutable, but he will not be spared the cost and time associated with defending his slander in a court of law. It is ironic that justice has to be meted out in such a secondary manner to this gossip monger who did not feel any concern for the family or lies he was fomenting. Zoeller wins on two fronts from this action: (1) He inflicts a financial penalty on the author of these lies, and this should give other gossip mongers pause for thought about their irresponsible actions; (2) His personal and family reputation will be restored. BTW, I suspect he can financially afford the subsequent legal action far better than the slanderer. This is probably a cost that the author of these lies never considered when he tried to destroy this good man. I am wondering just how much justice this teller of lies can really afford.

Wikipedia can remove the entry, but it is already cached in Google. It can't be erased. If people want to say crappy untrue things about others, let them stand up and announce who they are instead of hiding behind Wiki's skirts. I hope Fuzzy sues the pants off of them.
