Court denies jury trial for Stepin Fetchit defamation suit
The Supreme Court refused to grant a jury trial to Lincoln Perry known as Stepin Fetchit in a defamation suit against CBS Xerox and WISH TV over a documentary that labeled his on screen persona as lazy stupid and reckless. Lower courts ruled Perry a public figure and not entitled to a private trial. The case cites the documentary Black History Lost Strayed and Cosby remarks from 1968.
