What Is Truth?: True Suspects And False Defamation, Peter B. Kutner Oct 2008

What Is Truth?: True Suspects And False Defamation, Peter B. Kutner

Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal

A television station reports that an individual is a suspect in a murder case. A newspaper reports that a business or charity is under investigation to determine whether it has provided funding to terrorists or terrorist organizations.
