Opinion
DiPENTIMA, J.
In this appeal from the judgment rendered in a defamation action, we address the privilege of fair reporting. The plaintiff, Nancy Burton, appeals from the judgment of the trial court rendered on the granting of the motion for summary judgment filed by the defendants, American Lawyer Media, Inc., its affiliates, the New York Law Journal and the Connecticut Law Tribune, LLC, and a reporter, Mark Hamblett. On appeal, the plaintiff claims that it was improper for the court to grant the defendants’ motion for summary judgment. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
