(TORONTO MEDIA CO-OP) On August 25th, independent journalist, blogger, and activist Dan Kellar was arrested for a blog post. "The post on Kellar's blog peaceculture.org reported a sighting of the man in Toronto, and spoke about in a derogatory fashion. It also named a woman widely believed in activist circles as having been an undercover police infiltrator. In the blog post Kellar put both names in quotes and preceeed them with the term "so-called," implicating these were not their legal names. The post was removed from the site as a condition of Kellar's release. He is also to stay at least 500 metres away from the two people who were named in his post." http://toronto.mediacoop.ca/story/blogger-arrested-naming-infiltrator/8047
