hateblog

Online grievance journal

A hateblog is a blog devoted to attacking, criticizing, or expressing hostility toward a particular person, group, or cause.

The term emerged in the early 2000s as personal blogs proliferated, some becoming platforms for sustained grievance or vendetta: She discovered someone had started a hateblog dedicated to trashing her business.

The word can also function as a verb: He spent years hateblogging his former employer.
