Macrons Files Defamation Lawsuit Against Candace Owens in Delaware
ÎLE-DE-FRANCE, FRANCE, JUL 23 – The Macrons accuse Owens of knowingly spreading false claims about Brigitte Macron's gender and conspiracy theories, seeking damages in a rare defamation case involving a world leader.
- President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte have filed a defamation lawsuit against right-wing influencer Candace Owens, who claims that France's first lady was born male.
- The Macrons said in a lawsuit filed in Delaware Superior Court that Ms Owens has waged a lie-filled "campaign of global humiliation" to promote her podcast and expand her "frenzied" fan base.
- To prevail in US defamation cases, public figures must show defendants engaged in "actual malice," a tough legal standard requiring proof the defendants knew what they published was false or had reckless disregard for its truth.
