公众人物名誉权限制

Restrictions on the Reputation Right of Public Figures

在不同权利冲突中选择限制公众人物名誉权,不仅满足公众知情权,也保障了公共利益和舆论监督。由于我国关于公众人物名誉侵权方面立法的缺失,造成司法实践过度保护公众人物名誉权现象。明确界定公众人物概念,合理使用国外相关原则,完善侵权抗辩体系,对改变现状和限制保护公众人物名誉权有一定积极意义。

In the conflict of different rights, we choose to limit the reputation right of public figures, not only to satisfy the public ＇s right to know, but also to the public interest and supervision of public opinion. Due to the lack of legislat ion on the reputation infringement of public figures in China, judic ial practices have excessively protected the reputation rights of public figures. Clearly def ining the concept of public figures, rationally using relevant foreign principles, and perfecting the infringement defense system have positive implications for changing the status quo and restricting the protection of the reputation rights of public figures.
