A Case of Free Speech Boundaries
A Case of Free Speech Boundaries (Wired)
A pending libel suit in New York now stands to test -- and
potentially redraw -- some of the boundaries of journalistic free
speech on the Internet.
The case concerns Roberto Hernandez Ramirez, general director and
majority owner of the National Bank of Mexico, also known as Banamex.
In 1997, this prominent Mexican billionaire and Salinista investor
was the subject of a series of 15 investigative reports in the
Merida, Mexico daily newspaper Por Esto that fingered him as a major
narcotics trafficker between Colombia and the United States.
