Good, newspapers that don’t exhibit any signs of journalism and instead are actually activist corporations that print pamplets, then they should be open to libel.
I don’t think the courts would stand for it.
The courts have long held that public figures have to prove malice to be libeled. Of course this rule appears in no law passed by the Congress or any legislature, nor in the Constitution.
They have felt it necessary in order to allow such things as political cartoons, late night monologues, etc.
