A judge has dismissed a professor’s defamation lawsuit against an independent student newspaper at the University of Notre Dame, ruling that the instructor’s claims of defamation against the newspaper related to its reporting on her abortion advocacy did not hold merit.
Sociology professor Tamara Kay last year sued the Irish Rover over reports that depicted her as supportive of expanding access to abortion, with the instructor claiming that the paper misrepresented her on multiple occasions.
Kay filed the suit against the Rover in response to two articles that reported on the professor’s pro-abortion activism, including her alleged efforts to help students obtain both emergency contraception and abortifacients.
In Tamara Kay v. The Irish Rover, Kay said that the newspaper inaccurately described a sign on her university office door that, according to the Rover, offered students assistance with procuring abortion drugs.
