Some of you may or may not have read the Adventures of Johnny Northside, which is written by blogger John Hoff a.k.a. Johnny Northside. For those unfamiliar, Hoff writes about his version of life on the Northside of Minneapolis. Recently his claims of journalistic integrity have fallen on deaf ears; local attorney Jill Clark representing Jerry Moore had Mr. Hoff served with a summons. Clark believes that the freedom of the press protections should not be extended to bloggers with a personal agenda hiding behind the U.S. Constitution. Anyone interested in the quagmire of north Minneapolis politics will want to check out the summons.
History of how this came about will be followed up with a story soon from the MPLS Mirror.
The juicy stuff starts on page 2, and below is the link to John Hoffs site that is also attached to the summons along with the comments in the article:
