Twitter is refusing to identify an anonymous user who accused Academy Award-nominated actor James Woods of being a ?cocaine addict.?
Woods filed a $10-million defamation lawsuit July 30 against the Twitter user, who was using the handle ?Abe List,? claiming he has ?never done cocaine.? His legal team then asked Twitter to reveal the identity of the anonymous tweeter.
Twitter, however, refused, noting that Woods? lawsuit did not appear to outline the basics of a defamation action and that the tweets appeared to be more opinion than statements of fact.
