“you can add the Orlando Sentinel to the list of media organizations exposed to damages from defamation. “

Yeah,,, but doesn’t GZ have to prove “willful” intent? The Sentinal will prevaricate, and say they were relying on other news reports, I would think,,,,,

Since George is a private citizen, not a public figure, I think he only has to prove that they were careless, not intentionally trying to hurt him. (Note: I am not an attorney, and I don't play one on TV. )
