Please cite the case(s) on which you are relying for your conclusion that Fluke was a Limited Public Figure for purposes of application of the U.S. v. Sullivan 'actual malice' standard.

Or are you just reading the words I quoted from other cases and winging it?

You are wasting your breath hyperventilating over the “public figure” question.

As I pointed out, the viability of her claim is problematic because

1. It is quite unlikely that she would sue for being called a “slut” because that would open up the factual question as to whether and to what extent she is what might be considered promiscuous.

2. As to having falsely attributed to her the claim that she herself took birth control pills and paid for them, she doesn’t have a sound basis on which to argue reputational harm, which is a necessary element of a defamation claim in these circumstances.

Did you even read my post to you? I made these points to you before.
