C.J. Laity is a liar who is not afraid to commit acts of libel

If you have ever visited Chicagopoetry.com, you will notice one thing: the owner of the website, CJ LAITY, does everything he can to exploit those around him. He is a liar, a person who is not afraid to commit acts of libel, and somebody who likes to post youtube videos of himself doing "serious" poetry, which actually is something a person could laugh about when they see for hours. It's pretentious hogwash.
I recently became a victim of CJ Laity and Chicagopoetry.com. This person pretended to message me as somebody interested in my publishing services. I am the owner of a small publishing company who sometimes gets mistaken for being a vanity publisher, which I'm not, as I do not make any money off the books I've put out and all monies collected from services I offer, services that are optional, go right back into keeping my company afloat. Anyways, CJ sent me a poem and told me he was being courted by another publishing house, to which he asked for a fast response. He said he was more than happy to spend money and had a budget of $5000 dollars and when I asked if he had a problem with paying, he said in so many words that it wasn't a problem but he needed to know right away about the money. So I obliged. A few hours after I did this, he then put a huge article about my company on his site in which he hugely bloated the facts about our communication with each other and not only that, put up extremely false information, most of which is technically libelous under the current laws about libel today.
So why didn't I pursue anything? Well, I realized after doing some research on this person that he does this kind of thing to everyone around him. I'm not his first victim. He does all this under the banner of "free speech" and owning a website that specializes in tearing down others. He is of course entitled to his opinion, but he went above and beyond to paint my company in the darkest light possible and all of what he said can be easily refuted. For example, he claims that I have a 600% markup on charging people to make websites because he claims that I use free website building sites and don't actually do any work. I have more than enough proof that I spend hours coding and doing work and often at a rate that is well below what most programmers charge.
What's worse, when I asked him to put my rebuttal on his site, he antagonized me in emails and then filed a rip off report about my company and I've lost business because of him. And to be honest, I don't have a clue as to what I did to him to make him actually go to the lengths of deceiving me and spending a considerable amount of time to write an article about me!
Please, if you have any kind of dealings at all with this CJ, be careful. I have heard from people close to him that he is the type of individual who backstabs and has absolutely nothing to show for his success in life except Chicagopoetry.com, which has become a forum for CJ to bash people and get away with it. Please I caution anyone who has ever visited the website to see it for what it really is... A podium for a very upset individual who obviously hates his life so much he takes it out on everyone else. If you don't believe me, just watch one of his youtube poetry readings... Tell me that isn't the somebody who doesn't realize what a joke he actually is??? Do not deal with this person at all. He will not let anything go.
