Defamation Law Suit
Rolling Stone Defamation Litigation
Case Details
Who: Our firm represented Rolling Stone in one of the most closely watched defamation lawsuits involving a national media publication. The case arose from a widely circulated investigative article and raised complex legal questions surrounding First Amendment protections, journalistic standards, and reputational harm.
What Happened: We served as lead trial attorneys for Rolling Stone LLC, Jann Wenner and Wenner Media LLC, legendary global media companies defending a $25 million defamation lawsuit filed against them arising out of an article Rolling Stone published on the subject of sexual assaults at college fraternities. Our work uncovered numerous legal and factual flaws in the allegations against Rolling Stone.
Why this case Matters: High-profile defamation cases involving national media organizations test the limits of constitutional protections and carry significant reputational and legal risk. This matter reflects our firm’s experience handling complex, high-stakes litigation under intense public scrutiny, even when outcomes are uncertain.
