Defamation in the Wild West of Online Reviews
Brian O’Reilly, senior partner at BPO’Reilly & Co. and member of the Global Justice Network spoke on NewsTalk radio in Dublin on the topic of online social media defamation. In traditional media, there is full editorial control which is charged with the task of regulating reviews and preventing defamatory material from being published. In the “wild west” of internet reviews, social media platforms are less than vigilant when it comes to allowing illegal defamation to be published.
