Greenbelt Cooperative Publishing Association Inc. v. Bresler 398 U.S. 6 (1970) is a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that using the word blackmail in a newspaper article was no more than rhetorical hyperbole and that finding such usage as libel would subvert the most fundamental meaning of a free press guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. The ruling also touched on the plaintiff’s status as a public figure.
