I read on a case about this before, John Doe vs. Patrick Cahill.
The federal court found in favor for the anonymous blogger, saying that since there are millions of posts a day and most posts would obviously imply that it is a single person's opinion or views, they are not a source of facts or data upon a reasonable person would rely.
Further they went to say that it depends on the credibility of the blog site, if a reasonable person would not view a specific blog post as researched or factual information, then the statements made are incapable of having a defamatory meaning.
