CNN faces another defamation lawsuit after appeals court sides with Project Veritas
Fox News
CNN faces another defamation lawsuit after a federal appeals court revived a 2021 complaint that the cable news network may have defamed Project Veritas with "actual malice."
Project Veritas, a controversial undercover journalism organization, vehemently disagreed with Cabrera’s characterization and demanded correction, arguing that Twitter actually banned Project Veritas for violating Twitter’s "publication of private information," or "doxxing," policy.

Project Veritas sued for defamation when CNN refused to issue a retraction. The district court initially granted CNN’s motion to dismiss, but Project Veritas appealed, and the court reversed its decision after a lengthy process.
