    In a federal lawsuit filed on Tuesday, a Turkish advocacy group
    accuses the University of Minnesota of defamation and of violating
    the organization's due-process and freedom-of-speech rights, The
    Minnesota Daily reported. The dispute stems from a listing on the Web
    page of the university's Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies
    that described the Turkish Coalition of America's Web site as an
    "unreliable" source of information about the mass killing of Armenians
    a century ago and advised students not to use it. The center removed
    the list in mid-November. The university says that the allegations
    are unfounded and that it will seek to have them dismissed.
