It's considered a SLAPP suit, many states have anti-SLAPP statutes that allows someone that has been targeted by a SLAPP to sue back.
And to be honest, it never looks good on the companies part to sue an investor or possible investor. From a financial standpoint, its not worth the time or money of the company to go after an individual because while it may be easy to prove an individual said something, its very hard to prove what damages were caused because of it. A company that is public has to understand that things are going to be said beyond their control, come on do you really believe 99% of what is said on any message board.
