The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has reinstated Project Veritas’ defamation lawsuit against CNN, reversing a lower court’s dismissal. The appeals court noted that the central issue was an incorrect characterization by CNN, which reported that Project Veritas had breached a policy it had not actually violated. “Veritas committed one infraction—it violated a policy regarding the publishing of private information, but CNN falsely accused it of violating a completely different policy—spreading misinformation,” the court commented. “This distinction is not an inconsequential detail.” For further details on the lawsuit’s revival, you can visit the original article.
