Couldn't moderation be construed as endorsement?

I wish I could remember the parallel I'm thinking of. I think it had to do 
with copyright issues and public forums. If you're going to moderate any 
of the forum posts, you're responsible for all the content whether you 
moderated it or not. I realize that's kinda sketchy, but it was a number 
of years since I read it. I think the context I saw it in was in terms of 
an ISP that offers webhosting with their accounts.

slander is verbal, libel is in print.

liable is a legal obligation.
