In the following, note that the reporters lost their suit...they are not
considered "whistle blowers" unless they are reporting something illegal.
It is perfectly legal to report false news.
That's what I learned. Our University Legal Council said that the false
accusations made against me last year would be a fruitless suit - the
reporter would just say she was reporting what others told her, which gives her a
free pass. I talked to several of those quoted, and they were apologetic,
said that their words were taken out of context, etc. So much for truth
in reporting.
