1Opinion of the CourtJustice Erickson
We granted certiorari to review Keohane v. Wilkerson, 859 P.2d 291 (Colo.App.1993), in which the court of appeals held that the plaintiffs defamation claim against a newspaper and the author of two articles was not actionable but that the defamation claim against Stephen Stewart, a city councilman, was actionable.
