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.
