To the extent FunnyJunk wishes to make clear that it has removed The Oatmeal?s content and that it should not be held responsible for the availability of this content on its site, it has an easy avenue to do so: FunnyJunk can publish a statement or a blog post to this effect.This would be the appropriate and First Amendment-friendly course of action for a website (that presumably shares the free speech concerns of the internet at large). In any event, FunnyJunk?s claims are meritless, and The Oatmeal will prevail in any litigation involving FunnyJunk?s threatened claims. To be clear, The Oatmeal will not cave in to FunnyJunk?s attempts to censor him through legal threats and bullying.
