Do the rights of the owners of the private web service trump the 1st?

Very likely, yes.
Journalists are known to edit interviews and such. The problem becomes one
of who owns the forum versus misrepresenting someone’s views. I’d say that
it might be actionable if someone’s views are savagely distorted and have
the tendency to defame. And I don’t mean plain old name calling, or
interpretting direct quotes -- I am talking about heavily editing or
rewriting such quotes. It could get pretty weird.

I read a “Misanthropic Bitch” article once in which she wrote an article for
the school paper--the paper’s editor edited her article to the point where it
stated the opposite of her intent. Maybe I’ll try to dig it up.

Ah, but that’s different. If the material is published externally and editing
causes it to seriously misrepresent what was said by another, that’s certainly
actionable... it’s somewhere in the slander/libel/defamation of character area
depending on circumstances.
relatedly, the 1st allows me to slander you or libel you, (false statements of
alleged fact being libel, character smears being slander) on my own nickel, but
it in and of itself provides no shield for me if you turn around and sue me for
damages I caused.
I read that strip too!!! ... but there’s only one section of the forums I view
much of (and I ain’t there for the articles, nudge nudge, wink wink... ryu knows
how to pick his pictures) so I missed that particular incident. I found it
interesting that Sohmer was able to successfully transition to a new artist who
has a fairly radically different drawing style but still maintain the feel of
the strip.
Sometime I might post the webcomics I follow...
