Joan is intent on getting the City of Westview to build more bike lanes. She has written many letters to the local paper, been a

guest on local radio talk shows, appeared numerous times before the city council, and even paid for a billboard urging her cause. One day a local radio station talk show host says that two years ago Joan ran her car into a bicyclist who was riding in a bike lane. Joan says the story is false and sues the station (and the show host) for libel. What level of fault will Joan have to prove, and why?

Answer:

actual malice, because Joan is a limited-purpose public figure as she voluntarily thrust herself into a public controversy

Explanation:

In law, actual malice is simply a requirement that is imposed on a particular person who claims her image is being tarnished by someone when filing a lawsuit for slander or libel. This will be found in a case where the defendant actually publishes a false statement (libel) or communicates it (slander), knowing fully well that the information is false and disregard for what such information can cause. Joan is actually a limited-purpose figure and decided to go public by making efforts to get her voice out there in a quest to build more bike lanes.

antoniya [11.8K]

After his graduation Chris the neighborhood where he grown up and he discovered that his father had continued an affair with his first wife even after starting a relationship and having children with Billie. Chris did not tell anyone but he had negative feelings about it. I think he should have forgive his father because in that way he would have been able to leave aside those negative feelings that made him a  resentful man.

When an inspection is conducted in your workplace, you have certain rights. What are these rights?
Katena32 [7]
Your rights are to remain silent if anything they find rises question to them and they do question you , and you can also not comply to a search but that would make you look suspicious so if you don't have anything to hide don't be making it hard on everyone for no reason but if you do you reserve the right to say no. The only time you don't have a say in it is like if there was a crime and it happened in the work place since it is not owned by you you just work there if whomever owns it says they can search anything thing then you have no say because it is not your property i hoped this helped :)
