The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 2 that publishers can be held liable for damages due to negligently misinterpreting court decisions in a libel suit by Mary Alice Firestone against Time magazine. Five justices sent the $100,000 judgment back to Florida to determine if Time was negligent in reporting a divorce on adultery grounds. The decision narrows press protection since 1964. Firestone did not become a public figure merely by marrying into the Firestone fortune or suing for divorce. The Court also ruled state prosecutors immune from civil damages under federal rights law for false testimony and rejected a bid to have the Court of Claims decide back pay for an improper job classification. Other items include local notices and ads.
