• What Newspapers Have Done for Us

[...] from where I sit, here is what mainstream media has done in the last 45 years on behalf of the public: * It has trained thousands of people to gather, interpret and disseminate information to the public. * It has fought for narrowing libel law so that our elected officials couldn't shut the press - or anyone else - up just for writing critical stories. Since New York Times v. Sullivan in 1964, public officials who have been defamed have to prove the mistake was made intentionally or recklessly. * It led the battle for state and federal open meetings and open records laws.

• A Newsworthiness Privilege for Republished Defamation of Public Figures

When the media knowingly republish defamation of public figures, the media are subject to possible libel actions by the defamed parties to the same extent as the original defamingparties, even when the defamatory statements are themselves newsworthy in context. This is the dilemma created by the Supreme Court's decision in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, in which the Court went to great lengths to protect the media 's ability to report the news-even news that is false-so long as the republication is not done with a reckless disregard for the truth. What, then, should be done about information that is known to be false but is nonetheless necessary to inform public discourse? This Note suggests allowing republication based on the newsworthiness of the defamatory statements, i.e., when it ...

He rose through the ranks of the U.S. military to become a four-star general and the nation's youngest and first Black Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the leader of the U.S. military and its No. 1 soldier who successfully led the nation in the first Gulf War.
