Respondents overwhelmingly believed thatmost people who threaten to sue for libel would be satisfied with a retraction orapology from the newspaper, indicating a need for newspapers to pay closerattention to their correction policies and thus defuse potential libel suits.

That prediction has not materialized. The threat of megabuck libel verdicts has not diminished; instead, jury awards to libel plaintiffs are skyrocketing, according to a 1992 report from the Libel Defense Resource Center (Survey: Juries Hiking Libel Penalties). The average libel award made by juries in 1990-91 was $9 million, a record for libel awards and six times higher than the $1.5 million average award to libel plaintiffs during the 1980s. The only bright spots the LDRC study revealed were that the news media fared better beforejudges in the last two years and on appeals than :hey hadin the previous decade. Judges ruled in favor of the media in 66.7 percent of cases, compared to 52.6 percent of cases in the 1980s. On appeal, only 34.7 percent of libel awards were affirmed. Recently, the media have lost several major libel suits before the U.S. Supreme Court, including ones involving publicofficials and opinion (Harte-Hanks v. Connaughton and Milkovich v.Lorain Journal Co.), or the court, in denying certiorari, hasallowed lower court decisions again3t the media to stand.What these decisions and the LDRC study indicate is that the possibility of being saed for libel and being hit with a megabuckverdict 6 continues to be a serious concern for the media. As oneeditor who participated in our study put it: The defenses that seemed rock solid don't seem sosolid now...The courts have poked holes in all of our defenses againstlibel suits...One lawsuit could put you out of business even if you win." PURPOSES OE STUDY The purposes of this study are to examine (1) howpublishers and editors view libel and its impact ontheir newspapers and (2) the role of libel insurance, prepublicationreview of articles by attorneys andcomplaint policies for correcting errors in threatened and actual libel suits against a newspaper. BACKGROUND Since the U.S. Supreme Court constitutionalizedAmerican libel law with its decision in New York Times v.Sullivan in 1964, only a handful of empiricalstudies have examined the impact of libel on newspapers. Thatdecision prohibits apublicofficial from recovering damages for a defamatory falsehoodrelating to his official conduct "unless he proves that thedefamatory statement was made with 'actualmalice'--that is, with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard ofwhether it was false or not." Three years later the U.S. Suprem Courtextended the actual malice standard to public figures

Washington, D.C. 20530 Dear Mr. Attorney General: In March 2001, you asked me to lead a Commission to study security programs within the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Your request came at the urging of FBI Director Louis Freeh, who had concluded that an outside review was critical in light of the then recently discovered espionage by a senior Bureau official. In discharging my duties, I turned to six distinguished citizens as fellow Commissioners and to a staff of highly qualified professionals. I want to acknowledge the diligence with which my colleagues pursued the complex matters within our mandate. The Commission took its responsibilities seriously. It was meticulous in its investigation, vigorous in its discussions, candid in sharing views, and unanimous in its recommendations. When I agreed to chair the Commission, you promised the full cooperation and support of the Department of Justice and the FBI. That promise has been fulfilled. I would like to thank the Department’s Security and Emergency Planning Staff for the expert help they gave us, and I especially commend the cooperation of Director Mueller and FBI personnel at every level, who have all been chastened by treachery from within.

ABORTION AND THE LAWS OF WAR: SUBVERTING HUMANITARIANISM BY EXECUTIVE EDICT SUSAN YOSHIHARA' INTRODUCTION Humanitarian principles are under siege everywhere. From the shooting down of the Malaysian airliner in Ukraine, beheading of Western journalists and aid workers in Syria, murder of Christians in Iraq, and abduction of children as soldiers and sex slaves in the Congo-the headlines are filled with the flouting of international humanitarian law. That law is meant to protect non-combatants from the scourge of war. This essay tells the story of one of those disregarded principles: the prohibition against rape. The story is about why renewed efforts to get warring nations to obey the law could be brought down by a parallel movement to get Western nations to redefine it with a right to abortion.
