INTRODUCTION On May 8, 1997, the Supreme Court of Washington decided Nelson v. McClatchy Newspapers.1 The Court determined that a state law prohibiting employment discrimination based upon an employee's polit- ical conduct could not be constitutionally applied to newspaper publishers.2 This case presented a conflict between two well-established, but polar principles in First Amendment jurisprudence.3 The plaintiff, for- mer Tacoma News Tribune (hereinafter referred to as "the Tribune") reporter Sandra Nelson, argued that the free press has "no special immu- nity from the application of general laws" and, therefore, is prohibited from engaging in employment discrimination.4 Conversely, the defend- ant, McClatchy Newspapers, maintained that the First Amendment shields newspaper publishers from statutory interference with their con- trol of editorial content.5 1.

Introduction Before the Court is the Debtors’ Motion For an Order Rejecting Asset Purchase Agreement and Related Agreements Between Certain of the Debtors and the McClatchy Company (McClatchy).1 The Motion is opposed. After hearing held November 17, 2009, the Court took the matter under advisement. For the reasons which follow, the Motion will be granted.

The following is established by their pleadings: that the parties entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) in May 2006 (Motion, ¶ 7; Response, ¶ 2); that under the APA the Debtors assumed certain liabilities of McClatchy (Motion ¶ 7, Response ¶ 3); 1The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has filed a Joinder to the Motion. In it, they have included their own proposed form of Order with suggested revisions to the Debtors’ proposed Order. The Court finds the Committee’s Order to be satisfactory and will enter it. that at the time of the sale, McClatchy had workers compensation insurance in place (Motion ¶ 9, Response ¶ 3); that the Debtors assumed liability for pre-existing workers compensation claims on those policies (Motion ¶ 9; Response ¶ 4); that although the Debtors assumed that liability, McClatchy remained listed as the insured on those policies (Id.); that McClatchy has continued to pay those “historical” claims (Id.); and that the Debtors routinely reimbursed McClatchy through the petition date but not thereafter.

20-1063 Berisha V. Lawson (07/02/2021)
Cite as: 594 U. S. ____ (2021) 1 THOMAS, J., dissenting SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES SHKELZEN BERISHA v. GUY LAWSON, ET AL. ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT No. 20–1063. Decided July 2, 2021 The petition for a writ of certiorari is denied. JUSTICE THOMAS, dissenting from the denial of certiorari. In 2015, Guy Lawson published a book detailing the “true story” of how three Miami youngsters became international arms dealers. 973 F. 3d 1304, 1306 (CA11 2020). A central plot point involves the protagonists’ travels to Albania and subsequent run-ins with the “Albanian mafia,” a key figure of which, the book claims, is petitioner Shkelzen Berisha. The book performed well, and Lawson eventually sold the movie rights to Warner Bros., which made the feature film War Dogs. Unhappy with his portrayal, Berisha sued Lawson for defamation under Florida law. According to Berisha, he is not associated with the Albanian mafia—or any dangerous group—and Lawson recklessly relied on flimsy sources to contend that he was. The District Court granted summary judgment in favor of Lawson. Setting aside questions of truth or falsity, the court simply asked whether Berisha is a “public figure.” Why? Because under this Court’s First Amendment juris- prudence, public figures cannot establish libel without proving by clear and convincing evidence that the defend- ant acted with “ ‘actual malice’ ”—that is with knowledge that the published material “was false or with reckless dis- regard of whether it was false.” New York Times Co.
