This is an issue of intermediary liability. I am not sure we have laws that place an obligation on intermediaries, but maybe Victor Kapiyo, a lister with legal background can respond on this one.

This is a real life scenario, a client of mine's been bugging me for a solution. 

Disgruntled someone (unknown at this point) quits an organization, goes to blogger / other google hosted service and unleashes a Dossier entirely intended for maximum PR damage, hiding under the anonymity of the same, goes on to promote the same on twitter as "breaking news", There is no one to serve, Is there a way of dealing with this issue in regard to the same? sue google?
