Both the United States and Colorado Supreme Courts also recognize that, in order to be
actionable, a statement must be capable of being proven true or false. “[A] statement of opinion
relating to matters of public concern which does not contain a provably false factual connotation,
or which cannot reasonably [be] interpreted as stating actual facts about an individual, continues
to receive full constitutional protection.” Keohane v. Stewart, 882 P.2d 1293, 1299 (Colo. 1994)
(quoting Milkovich v. Lorain Journal Co., 497 U.S. 1, 18, 20 (1990)) (internal quotes and citations
omitted).
In Keohane, the Colorado Supreme Court identified a two-step inquiry to determine
whether a statement is protected. The first is whether the statement is “sufficiently factual to be
susceptible of being proved true or false.”
translation: powell is claiming that she cant be sued for defamation, because her statements are mere opinion, and cant be proven true or false. ok, so the package of evidence she presented, and subsequently presented in actual court cases in several states, cant be verified factually, and are just opinions for people to draw their own conclusions from.
her words, not mine.
