What about the damages from whisper campaigns?

Thanks to Carolyn Elefant at Legal Blog Watch for pointing out the USA Today story on an $11 million verdict rendered in an internet defamation case.

It's unfortunate that similar damages from whisper campaigns are harder to prove.

[UPDATE: corrected reference to another blogger defamation case here]

  • There is a great deal of competition for media attention. Whisper campaigns can be helpful in cutting through the noise. While many campaigns are geared toward talking up a company or product, it will be interesting to see if examples will be made of negative campaigns.
