Join PNA for a free members-only training, “Data Centers and Defamation Risk: A Discussion of Pennsylvania’s Anti-SLAPP Law Protections.” As proposed data center projects generate increasing public interest and controversy across Pennsylvania, journalists face important legal considerations when reporting about these developments. This session will examine defamation law in Pennsylvania, provide an overview of the Commonwealth’s new anti-SLAPP statute, and discuss how these legal protections apply to reporting on matters of public concern. Attendees will gain practical guidance for minimizing legal risk while continuing to provide robust coverage of issues affecting their communities.

Speakers: Kaitlin Gurney, partner at Ballard Spahr and Melissa Melewsky, PNA Media Law Counsel
