Flipboard News Desk<p>More than 60 years ago, New York Times C. v. Sullivan established that, to succeed in defamation cases, public figures must prove that a published statement is false and that publishers acted with "actual malice." "Murder the Truth," a new book by New York Times journalist and editor David Enrich, discusses the movement to overturn Sullivan, accelerated by Trump, his allies and people who are influenced by them. Nieman Lab spoke to Enrich about his investigation, the journalists he spoke to, and more. "The push to overturn Roe was obviously one of the most coordinated assaults on established Supreme Court precedent, probably in history," Enrich says. "This is definitely not like that — but it’s not an accident that these people were getting up and being given platforms on places like Fox News to make these arguments over and over again."</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/AVGQcJ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/AVGQcJ</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USLaw</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Law</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Libel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Libel</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Defamation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Defamation</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Books</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Media</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Journalism</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/MurderTheTruth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MurderTheTruth</span></a></p>
Bruce MacDonald<p>"The columnists were deeply wounded by the newly announced limits and what they portended. We had always been able to assure our readers that no one restricted what we could write. How could we credibly make that claim now? What was the meaning of “personal liberties and free markets?” Without further clarification, we were like dogs that had been fitted with shock collars but had no clue where the invisible fence was situated."<br><a href="https://www.newyorker.com/news/essay/why-ruth-marcus-left-the-washington-post" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">newyorker.com/news/essay/why-r</span><span class="invisible">uth-marcus-left-the-washington-post</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/newspapers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>newspapers</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
