EXPERTS DOWNPLAY GREENE’SODDS OF WINNING LIBEL SUIT
FIRST AMENDMENT Press is well-protected when it comes to public figures
by Jose Pagliery, DBR. SeveralSouth Florida attorneys withFirst Amendment expertise agreechances are slim that billionaireJeff Greene will find success suingtwo newspapers he blames for
derailing his U.S. Senate cam-paign.They say the odds are stacked
against him based on vast protec-tions afforded to journalists bythe U.S. Supreme Court.
Greene, who accuses the
St. Petersburg Times and theMiami Herald of orchestrating acampaign to destroy him, mustprove the newspapers knowinglyreported lies and staff membershad a reckless disregard for the
truth. It’s a standard many vet-eran First Amendment lawyersconsider insurmountable.
It will be up to Atlanta attorneyLin Wood and Miami’s StanleyWakshlag to prove otherwise.SEE STORY, PAGE A3
