Question:

Case Problem with Sample Answer—Libel and Invasion of Privacy. The Northwest Herald, a newspaper, received regular e-mail reports from police departments about criminal arrests. When it received a report that Caroline Eubanks had been charged with theft, the Herald published the information. Later, the police sent an e-mail that retracted the report about Eubanks. The Herald published a correction.

Eubanks filed a suit against the paper for libel and invasion of privacy. Does Eubanks have a good case for either tort? Why or why not? [Eubanks v. Northwest Herald Newspapers, 397 Ill.
App.3d 746, 922 N.E.2d 1196 (2010)] (See pages 102–104.)
