In the 1995 case of Sylvester Jones v. ABC-TV et al., Sylvester Jones, a private individual, sued American Broadcasting Companies (ABC) and others for defamation. The lawsuit was based on an episode of "20/20," a television news magazine program produced by ABC, which featured him as part of a story about fraudulent televangelists. Jones claimed that he was falsely portrayed as a criminal in the broadcast and that his reputation had been damaged as a result. However, the court ruled in favor of ABC-TV and its co-defendants stating that they were protected under First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and press since they did not act with actual malice or reckless disregard for truth when producing their report on televangelism frauds.
