Other examples include Max Baer in Cinderella Man and Freddy Mecury's lover/manager in Bohemian Rhapsody. This one seems particularly egregious since the AJC was found to only have published the truth. A decision that went all the way to the Georgia Supreme Court and the US SC refused to hear it. Everyone wanted a name, and the FBI leaker gave Scruggs the name.
