- Embed this noticeYou're 100% correct on defamation. It's an economic tort, not an emotional tort. Even the classic case of calling a woman unchaste is about her subsequent inability to get married, e.g. an economic injury, and not her emotions.
I find it even stranger that you can stick defamation on a guy that most people think is ridiculous. He doesn't have the authority of Tom Brokaw, and if he did, he could defame and hide behind being a "legitimate journalist." I was defamed by Hobo Harry!
