"Florida Supreme Court rejects 'false light' lawsuit"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Florida Supreme Court rejects 'false light' lawsuit": The St. Petersburg Times today contains an article that begins, "In a victory for Florida newspapers and freedom of speech, the Florida Supreme Court on Thursday rejected a lawsuit that penalized a newspaper for publishing a story that was true." The newspaper also contains an editorial entitled "Free speech gets room to breathe."

The Pensacola News Journal reports today that "Supreme Court rejects 'false light' lawsuit; 1998 story at crux of $18 million case." The newspaper also contains an editorial entitled "A win for the truth."

law.com reports that "Fla. Supreme Court Rejects False Light as a Legal Cause of Action."

And The Tallahassee Democrat contains an editorial entitled "Free-press victory: Court is correct in rejecting 'false light.'"

As I first reported in this post from yesterday, the cases in which the Supreme Court of Florida yesterday issued decisions on this subject are Anderson v. Gannett Co. and Jews for Jesus, Inc. v. Rapp.
