Netflix sued by chess icon over a line in The Queen's Gambit
Netflix has been decked by a $5 million lawsuit for defamation involving one line in the finale of The Queen’s Gambit. The suit has been filed by chess extraordinaire Nona Gaprindashvili, who claims Netflix knowingly said falsehoods about her in the show.www.avclub.com
Idk, I tend to think she has no grounds to sue because it's a fictional account, but, I also think Netflix should have just used a fictional name.
Yeah, I hadn't really thought about how fictional accounts of real people would be considered in a court of law. But I'm just wondering how she shows she suffered damages from the line.Come on Dave. A real person can’t use a fictional character to make defamatory statements and avoid liability. If Ziggy said “DaveXA molests children” it’s not like Ziggy actually said that. The Ziggy writer said that.
i’m not sure it’s actually defamatory to say that she never played chess against men in competition but she’s a real person and the characterization of her in the show is potentially grounds for defamation if the statements meet the elements of defamation. It doesn’t really matter that it’s a fictional account - she’s real and the statement was about her.
Apparently she knew about it during production and told them she objected to it.
Wasn't luck bud, that was a good line and I miscalculated. After the exchange, I wanted to reposition but realized you had an excellent attack and I had no time to save it. I had to accept those forced trades and hope I can make it to a draw position. I'm not sure if it was enough. This is a tough one to play out.My last match with JRazza, he beat the New Zealand Mountain Goat mess out of me. It was no contest in VERY short order. I was actually embarrassed. It was like, I'd never seen a chess board. But this current game I got extremely lucky with a forced tempo after an exchange and I ended up 1 piece. I managed to exchange all of the way down but even up a whole piece, dude still made the game difficult. It STILL might be a draw.
