After Kennedy concluded his address, Kennedy School Professor Glenn Loury provided a disperse, theoretical response to Jacobs.
In his lengthy brief to the Appeals Court, Lakian argues that Superior Court Judge George Jacobs made a mistake last August 12 when he entered judgment for the newspaper after a jury found that three paragraphs in an article about Lakian were false, defamatory and published recklessly.
Using a special verdict slip prepared by Judge Jacobs, the jury found that three out of 52 paragraphs were false, defamatory and published with"knowledge of its falsity or while having seriousdoubts about its truth."
The jurors went on to award Lakian zero damagesfor his "actual injury," which Jacobs had definedas an essential of libel.
On appeal, Lakian argues that Jacobs made alegal error by declaring that the Globe had won.
