About

University of Buffalo School of Law Professor Samantha Barbas discusses the roots of the U.S. Supreme Court's New York Times v. Sullivan decision which created the "actual malice" standard that a public figure must prove in a successful suit for defamation. Professor Barbas's lecture focuses on describing the origins of the New York Times v. Sullivan decision in the context of the 1960s Civil Rights Movement.
