An individual should have the right to sue another individual if that other has maliciously harmed him.

A media maggot can print any lie about anyone and get them fired with those lies. so what If someone prints big lies about you that get you fired and ostracized so you can't even make a living. You want to have those reporters above the law and deny us our right to sue.

No one is proposing government censorship but a 2 individuals fighting it out in court as we do in other matters. The government just acts as referee.

you are falsely making this government censorship which i am against which is morons on a government agency deciding what is good speech and what is not. big difference between that which is not free speech to allowing INDIVIDUALS their right to sue.

Yes, that is current law.

Also under current law, the media can be sued what you mention if actual malice can be proven and the person in question was damaged.

So, I'm not sure what your concern is.

We already have those laws. We don’t need more laws.
