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>
