Why don't you go back to third grade and redevelop reading comprehension skills? My point has been about libel not defamation. Thamel's article was false, there is not now nor was there on the date of publication an NCAA investigation. He was assisted in publishing the libel which touched Orange Pride, the hostesses, and The University of Tennessee by an agent within the NCAA. Thamel, the NYTimes, the agent personally, and the NCAA employing the agent can be sued for libel, it was a complete falsehood published. I'll let the the courts decide what the damages are and the amount to be awarded. You sound like somebody forgot to lead you off the short bus at the end of the day.
Hey Remy, do you have a J.D.? No? Ok, then please stop acting like you know the law and its limitations, much less its ramifications. Running around using legal terminology doesn't make you a legal advocate, and definitely doesn't put you in a position to speak like you know what the elements of a libel case are. Are we talking libel per se, or libel per quod? Stop spouting off your garbage like you know what you're talking about, you're making yourself look ridiculous.
P.S. - There is a difference between "libel" and "liable." One is written defamation, the other means that you are at risk or causally responsible for a legal wrong. Please post responsibly.
