Be a limited public figure

Reporters are no, Columnists are public figures:

A fairly high threshold of public activity is necessary to elevate people to public figure status. Typically, they must either be:

a public figure, either a public official or any other person pervasively involved in public affairs, or
a limited purpose public figure, meaning those who have “thrust themselves to the forefront of particular public controversies in order to influence the resolution of the issues involved.” A “particularized determination” is required to decide whether a person is a limited purpose public figure, which can be variously interpreted:[2]

A person can become an “involuntary public figure” as the result of publicity, even though that person did not want or invite the public attention. For example, people accused of high profile crimes may be unable to pursue actions for defamation even after their innocence is established…

A person can also become a “limited public figure” by engaging in actions which generate publicity within a narrow area of interest. For example, [jokes about]… Terry Rakolta [an activist who spearheaded a boycott of the show Married With Children] were fair comments… within the confines of her public conduct [and] protected by Ms. Rakolta’s status as a “limited public figure”.

Sourced

A public figure can push the envelope on what that person is entitled to say in the fray and what is said in respect to positions they have. These are open for more privacy concerns for activies, and can become dogged.

October jazz, 10 days to community media day …

Have a communicative month…

👀💭

Ten day count down

Community Media Day is October 20th 2023, an initiative to celebrate free speech and community in it’s outlets for free speech.

In a nutshell mediums are available for people to give their message with only the constraints of malice, untruth held with knowledge of it being untrue, libel and slander.

Propaganda is information without rebuttal or balancing information and often without genuine facts, it is a scourge to communities.

So, for the countdown, watch for communication vehicles and reserve your trust in the credible, but make aware the views of the incredible.

Messaging is often a challenge and sometimes toxic, however necessary.

Great Day, Thank you for being yourself.
