New York Times Co. v. Sullivan  was a landmark decision enacted by the US Supreme Court in 1964. It stated that, a press report or publication would be <u>considered libel</u> (defamatory printed communications) <u>if the "actual malice" standard or principle is met. </u>

Actual malice is defined as the requirement that public officials need to prove in order to suit for libel, if they want to have a chance to suceed in a lawsuit. Public officials and public personalities are subject to tougher standards than ordinary people, who are not known for the general public.

Gekata [30.6K]
In order to maximize profits ,many businessmen in the 19th century resorted to unethical business practices and thus earned the name robber barons. They did not physically rob people but they stole control over natural resources, paid unfairly low wages and pushed out their competition using questionable business practices . While their practices weren't viewed as ethical, most of the 19th century robber barons didn't commit any illegal acts, though through their actions, new laws were enacted to prevent others from following their actions.

Please help giving brainliest and 30 points!!
Nookie1986 [14]
Causes of US failure in Vietnam include b) The United States supported corrupt leaders in Vietnam and d) Only a few US soldiers fought with honor. 

One of the biggest issues of the Vietnamese war was that the United States went in because of anti-communism above all other reasons because of the Truman Doctrine. The South Vietnamese leaders were not well liked and were overall corrupt. The knowledge of this back home created a lot of public tension and actually caused soldiers to feel they weren't fighting for a good cause, or even commit war crimes as seen in the My Lai Massacre.
