The United States Supreme Court has declined to hear a case brought by Steve Wynn, which sought to challenge the 1964 New York Times v. Sullivan decision that requires public figures to prove "actual malice" in defamation lawsuits. Wynn's case aimed to lower the threshold for public figures to pursue defamation claims, potentially altering media law, but the court's decision leaves the existing standard intact. This decision highlights the ongoing influence of the Sullivan ruling in protecting news organizations under the First Amendment, despite some calls to revisit the precedent.
