1) Discuss the meaning of the phrase "actual malice". I'm looking for your own independent thoughts on the topic rather than simply reiteration of the textbook's definition. Explain how "actual malice" impacts the ease with which a "public official" (like the President) or a "public figure" (like celebrities or professional athletes) might prevail on a lawsuit for defamation? Do those people have an easier or a more difficult time of winning? 2) Give your reasoned opinion as to whether society as a whole (as opposed to a particular individual) benefits from the "actual malice" requirement? Why does the "actual malice" requirement exist? Is it consistent with the freedom of speech guaranteed by the First Amendment? Why or why not
