Those media outlets just opened themselves to a lawsuit, team salvado can and SHOULD sue them, get money from them in damages, then force them to make a public apology article.

Why can team salvado sue them? Because globally, FALSE defamatory statements are against the law.

Were these false defamatory news articles? Yes.
Were damages incurred from these news articles? Yes.

Good, that's grounds enough to get sued.

As much as I'd love these yellow journalist to get what's comming to them, these types of cases are very hard to win. Mostly, they have to prove that either the parents or the Sun reported with full knowledge that what they were doing was false. That is hard to do, esspecially with how stupid some journalists are.

This isn't hard at all to win, the false statements were made, they were spread out, injury was caused, there's nothing else in between.

Proof of the false statements? Google is full of them.
Proof of the injury caused? Team Salvato has it.


Am I missing something? It doesn't matter how stupid journalists are, law is law.

yeah, you have to prove they made the statements with the knowledge they were fake or that they did it with the intention of harming team salvato. that IS what the law states, I think. They, Salvato, also has to prove that the statements where damaging.

The statements were damaging enough since nearly every news outlet was talking about it, however they got the game wrong.

Pretty sure that the "did it with intention" only applies to the severity of the punishment that's going to be given afterwards, as in, 100% severity for "with intention" and 50% (I don't know exactly how these go) for "no intention", however it's quite clear that their intention is to shame the company, and they don't seem to care about it.

While you're searching, in my country every time there's talk about a car killing a pedestrian (jaywalkers) the verdict is always "without intent", in this case the punishment is lessened by a lot, for example one of my classmates when I was in university had killed a person on the crosswalk, that person sprinted on the crosswalk where the speed limit was 100km/h, needless to say he died on the spot, and my classmate, the only punishment he was given was that his driver's license was taken away for 2 years + a hefty fine (no jail time for "accidentally" killing a person, well in this case the biggest fault was the pedestrian's)
