Please contact a lawyer for advice on how to approach this. WordPress.com will not remove a post, nor will other web hosts, under the DMCA laws which cover copyright not defamation or libel. You need criminal advice for help in this area.

Please contact the author of the site in question first, then their host if it is a self-hosted version of WordPress (I’m assuming you found out they are using WordPress). If they are using WordPress.com (VERY different from a self-hosted version of WordPress as explained in the article), you will need to contact WordPress.com with evidence. Slander and defamation is a legal issue and you should immediately take legal action to pursue this. The lawyer will know what to do. WordPress.org and WordPress.com are not liable nor responsible beyond the scope of their terms of service. Even then, you may still need a legal action to pursue this further. Good luck but do not ask publicly on blogs. Bloggers can’t help you.

I have looked over the terms of service and found:

You must not describe or assign keywords to your blog in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others

This abuse is affecting my husbands personal and business reputation. Can anyone help??

Digital Millennium Copyright Act Notice — Automattic. I know some people who blog as a jerk, serious jerks, but that is their persona not their real character. It’s a job. Either way, I cannot help you. Inflammatory content is not a reason to close a site down. You will have to find legal reasons. There are bozos promoting hate all over the place, as well as bozos promoting peace and love. You still need legal reasons to complain legally.
