Description
Plaintiff, The Living Will Center, appeals the summary judgment dismissing its complaint against defendants, NBC Subsidiary (KCNC-TV), Inc., and one of its reporters - Suzanne McCarroll. Plaintiffs complaint included claims of libel, violation of the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, disparagement of plaintiffs business products and services, and tortious interference with a prospective economic advantage and business opportunity. Plaintiff contends the trial court erred in dismissing the complaint on the basis that statements in two television broadcasts referring to the sale of plaintiffs products as a "scam" and to its customers as being "taken" were mere hyperbole and that the broadcasts were constitutionally protected. We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
