特朗普告伍德沃德被駁回 近5千萬官司落空




聯邦法官裁定特朗普無法就《怒火》有聲書內容起訴記者鮑勃·伍德沃德

紐約消息——聯邦地方法官保羅·加德菲週五裁定,前美國總統唐納德·特朗普無法就記者鮑勃·伍德沃德將其2020年暢銷書《怒火》(Rage)的採訪錄音製作成有聲書一事,追究近5000萬美元的訴訟。

這項判決對伍德沃德、其出版社賽門·舒斯特(Simon & Schuster)及其前東家派拉蒙環球(Paramount Global)來說是重大勝利。三方辯稱,美國聯邦法律禁止總統將作為官方職務所進行的採訪申請版權,且歷任總統從未要求過就總統採訪獲得版稅。

被告方同時指出,伍德沃德是這些採訪的「唯一策劃者與真正作者」,正如已故新聞巨擘沃爾特·克朗凱特(Walter Cronkite)及芭芭拉·沃爾特斯(Barbara Walters)在與其他總統的採訪中所扮演的角色一樣。

伍德沃德亦主張,這些採訪屬於「經典新聞報導」,有助於向公眾傳遞準確資訊,屬於合理使用範疇。

事實上,伍德沃德於2019年12月至2020年8月間共對特朗普進行了19次採訪,約20%的《怒火》內容均來自這些對話。該書於2020年9月發行,有聲書《特朗普錄音帶》(The Trump Tapes)則於2022年10月推出,包含伍德沃德的評論。

特朗普於2023年1月提起訴訟,聲稱他曾多次告知伍德沃德這些採訪僅用於書籍內容,伍德沃德則否認曾同意這項限制。特朗普律師要求近5000萬美元賠償,計算基於預測有聲書銷量達200萬份,每份售價24.99美元。

值得一提的是,派拉蒙環球於2023年10月將賽門·舒斯特以16.2億美元現金出售給私募股權公司KKR。

該案件編號為特朗普訴賽門·舒斯特等,於美國紐約南區聯邦地方法院審理。

評論與啟示:從新聞自由到版權界限的交鋒

這宗案件核心反映了新聞採訪與版權法之間的微妙平衡。作為前總統,特朗普試圖將官方採訪內容納入個人財產範疇,這在法律上遭遇了嚴格限制,彰顯了公共職務與私人權益的界線不可模糊。

伍德沃德作為資深記者,其「唯一作者」的身份被法院認可,強調了新聞報導在保護公眾知情權方面的獨立性與專業性。此案同時肯定了合理使用原則,讓重要政治資訊能以多元形式廣泛傳播,避免被權力者用版權做為箝制言論的工具。

此判決對香港媒體界亦具啟示意義:面對政治人物或權力機構,媒體如何在尊重法律框架下,維護新聞自由和公眾利益,是一條必須謹慎走穩的路。尤其在數碼時代,有聲書、網絡視頻等新媒介層出不窮,版權與新聞自由的界限將更頻繁遭受考驗。

未來,媒體人不僅要懂得法律規範,還需敏銳洞察政治與社會脈絡,才能在複雜環境中守護真相,推動社會進步。特朗普與伍德沃德的這場法律爭議,正是新聞自由與權力制衡的生動教材。

The same person, the same face, unaltered features. An almost hyperrealistic image with sharp detail, a stylish photograph captures a model standing against a backdrop of pristine white volcanic rocks. The stones are expertly arranged, revealing natural cracks in the beige hue. In a medium-length shot, the balance of luxury and meticulous attention to detail is striking. She wears a carefully tailored white suit: a jacket with a structured fabric, high shoulders, and precise waist trim, a deep V-neck that elegantly reveals the neckline without being contrived, and matching skirts that maintain clean lines and lend the look a classic, understated elegance. The head is covered by a wide-brimmed white straw hat, its high angle pointing forward and adorned with a bouquet of red and white roses resting on the front brim, adding a touch of drama and romance. Green eyes, professional makeup, full lips, and long, sleek blonde hair cascading over her shoulders. Her right hand lifts the brim of the hat as if adjusting it, while her left hand crosses her chest in a confident pose that reflects a strong feminine presence. The fabric's lines and texture are carefully highlighted with a long, graceful touch of movement. The fabric details are delicate and soft, with subtle ripples and hidden seams that enhance the sense of high craftsmanship. Soft lighting from the left creates a long shadow on the wall, giving the image depth and body without compromising the purity of the white. Shades of white blend with a touch of warm gray, and the red roses stand out as a focal point, adding warmth and visual dimension. The stone background creates a calming effect, allowing the fine details of the hat, suit, and roses to stand out. White volcanic stones. Natural fissures.
