Yes, of course you can sue them! Remember, no one is above the law ☝

‼️ When it comes to suing the media for defamation, you firstly need to ensure:

👉 A journalist or media outlet published something false about you.

👉 That person acted deliberately and negligently.

👉 The false statement injured your reputation.

📚 Published doesn’t only mean the defamatory statement was printed in a newspaper. It can be said on a TV program, on the radio, on a social media platform, in a speech, or on a website.
