A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit Wednesday against the founder of a political gossip Web site who reprinted sexually explicit material about the sex lives of two Senate aides. Ana Marie Cox, the founder of Wonkette.com, commented on and linked to Jessica Cutler's Web blog, which discussed several men, including Robert Steinbuch. Cox argued that blogs can't be held liable for material they reprint. But U.S. District Judge Paul L. Friedman didn't address that issue because he said Steinbuch sued too late.
