2. The parties' assertion and judgment criteria
A. The parties' assertion
The plaintiff asserts that the defendant newspaper company and the defendant newspaper company, who is the media organization, and the reporters belonging thereto, published and distributed false facts about the harm to the plaintiff as articles, thereby impairing the plaintiff's reputation by allowing ○○○, Jeon○, and Park Park to keep the plaintiff's reputation as a de facto political person in bad faith to its readers and voters. Thus, the defendant newspaper company and the plaintiff asserted that the defendant newspaper company should jointly pay consolation money in accordance with defamation and the defendant newspaper company should publish a correction report, such as the contents of the claim for correction.
As to this, the Defendants asserted that among the articles of this case, Articles 3 and 4 are merely an expression of opinion without a specific statement of fact, and therefore, defamation is not established, and even if the remaining articles damage original reputation, they did not distort the Plaintiff with a false representation, but reported only true facts for the public interest for the sake of the public interest. Even if not, the Defendants asserted to the effect that there is considerable reason to believe that it is true, such as confirming the content from news source, etc.
B. Criteria for judgment
(1) Whether defamation is defamation
(A) Whether a certain article of the press constitutes a tort by impairing another person’s reputation should be determined on the basis of the overall appearance of the article, comprehensively taking into account the objective contents of the article, the ordinary meaning of the used words, the connection method of phrases, etc. under the premise that the general readers contact the article, under the premise that the article’s overall purport is related to the article’s overall purport. Moreover, the relevant article’s expression should also be considered in light of the social trend that served as the background of the article (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2000Da37524, 37531, Jan. 22, 2002).
(B) Defamation, which is a tort under the Civil Act, refers to an act infringing upon an objective evaluation of a human character, such as a person’s character, virtue, reputation, and credit, and as long as such an objective evaluation is infringed, it may be established even through an expression of opinion or comment. However, mere expression of opinion or comment alone cannot be said to undermine the other party’s social evaluation. Thus, in the case of pure opinion or comment that is not premised on a statement of fact, liability for damages caused by defamation is not established. Meanwhile, the expression of opinion or comment is not limited to cases where a fact is directly expressed, and even based on an indirect and roundive expression, it does not refer to cases where a statement of fact is not limited to cases where a fact is directly expressed, and if it is based on an indirect or roundive expression, it indicates the existence of such fact, and thereby, it is sufficiently sufficient to the extent that it is likely to infringe on a person’s social value or assessment (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 9Da20360, Jul. 28, 2000).
(2) Whether illegality is denied
Even in a case where an act of damaging another person’s reputation is committed under the civil law, if it is a matter of public interest and its purpose is solely for the public interest, such act is not unlawful if it is proved to be true, and if there is considerable reason to believe that the content of the report is true even if it is not proven, it shall be deemed unlawful. However, in the case of defamation through the news report by the media, whether there is considerable reason to believe that the content of the report is true shall be determined in light of the following: (a) whether the actor conducted an adequate and sufficient investigation to verify the authenticity of the report by comprehensively taking into account all the various circumstances, such as the contents of the publicly alleged fact, the evidence believed to be true, the reliability and credibility of the report, the easiness of verifying the fact, the degree of damage to the victim caused by the news, etc.; and (b) whether the truth is supported by objective and reasonable materials or grounds (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 200Da50213, May 10, 2002).
3. Determination as to the first engineer of this case
A. The plaintiff's assertion
The plaintiff demanded the list of the residents' autonomous council members and the heads of Tong/Bans in relation to public official elections and election campaign which require the revision (in order for the head of Tong/Ban to carry out an election campaign, he shall resign 90 days prior to the election). The plaintiff's purpose is to grasp the actual state of the residents' autonomous council members retired prior to the local election, the residents' autonomous council members of Tong/Ban and the head of Tong/Ban who are reinstated after the local election, and the head of Tong/Ban. However, the defendant Do governor argued that the defendant Do governor damaged the plaintiff's reputation by reporting maliciously, which seems to use the materials of the public office for private election without reporting ○○ public officials and the plaintiff.
B. Whether defamation is defamation
The contents of the article 1 of this case are as follows: (a) the Plaintiff, as a whole, before 50 days of local elections, demanded the Si/Gun/Gu office of the Dong/Si/Gun to submit a list clearly stating the positions, names, resident registration numbers, addresses, telephone numbers, occupations, major career, etc. of the head of Dong/Si/Gun/Gu and the residents' autonomous council members to the Gu/Si/Gun office of 00 days of local elections without undergoing the official procedures of the National Assembly; and (b) the Plaintiff’s statement of such facts was given to the Plaintiff, who abused the position of the National Assembly members and intended to use materials of public offices for private election, thereby infringing upon the objective evaluation that the Plaintiff, a member of the National Assembly, received from society
C. Whether the illegality is denied
(1) Facts of recognition
The following facts can be acknowledged by considering the following facts: Gap evidence Nos. 40, 44, 46, Gap evidence No. 43-1, 2, Eul evidence No. 7 and the fact inquiry results to ○○ Metropolitan City Mayor of the court of first instance.
(A) On March 29, 2002, the Plaintiff sent a letter to ○○○○○○○○○○, who is scheduled to leave the local election on June 13, 2002, to identify and submit 16 of the heads of Tong/Kun offices, the names of residents’ autonomous council members, and the current status of government subsidies organizations, etc. on March 29, 2002, and the Plaintiff’s assistants demanded the competent authority to submit data on the details of the report and change of the property of the chairman of the ○○○○○○○○○○, who is scheduled to leave the election without the head of the Gu.
(B) Defendant ○○ who was in charge of the ○○○○-gu and the ○○-gu as an journalist belonging to the Defendant newspaper company, was informed of the above from the public officials in the region where he was in charge of ordinary political affairs around April 2002 and the persons related to political affairs, and it is thought that it is difficult to view that the active member’s demand for submission of the above materials cannot be deemed as a normal parliamentary activity. The Defendant ○○-○, who was in charge of the ○○-gu and the ○○-gu and the ○○-gu, who was in charge of the ○○-gu and the ○○-gu, and the members of the National Assembly Committee on Administrative Autonomy, and the Plaintiff’s assistant.
(다 ) 이 사건 제1기사가 보도된 날, 원고의 보좌관인 심○○는 “개인신상자료가 담긴 구체적인 자료를 보내라고 요청한 사실은 없으나, 요청한 자료 중 일부가 선거에 이용될 수 있다는 오해의 소지가 있음을 인정하고, 구청에서 제출한 자료 일체를 사과 공문과 함께 해당 구로 반송하였다” 는 취지의 보도관련 참고자료를 피고 손○○에게 보냈고, 피고 손○○은 그러한 원고측 소명서의 내용을 담은 후속 기사를 작성하였으 며, 피고 신문사는 2002. 4. 23. ㅇㅇㅇㅇ' 제35면에 이를 게재하였다.
(2) Determination
(A) Public nature
In accordance with the above facts, the first engineer of this case, as a member of the National Assembly at the time before 50 days from the election of the head of local government, requested the list, etc. of the head of Tong and the residents' autonomous council members to 16 Gu/Si/Gun offices in 00 regions, and raised a suspicion that the plaintiff can use the list unfairly, and the purpose of the first engineer of this case was for the public interest in promoting the fairness of the election.
(b)originality and reasonableness;
Of the contents of the article No. 1 of this case, it is not clear that it is difficult for a public official in charge of ○○○ City, who received data from the plaintiff about the list of the heads of Tongs and Bans, to keep materials and deliver personal information (the result of fact inquiry about the ○○○ Metropolitan City Mayor in the first instance court). However, according to the fact inquiry about the ○○○○ City Mayor, the public official in charge of receiving a request for data from the plaintiff is too excessive to keep the amount of data, and it is recognized that the public official consulted with the plaintiff's assistant officer on duties). Whether ordinary articles are true or not is true or not is a fact that is consistent with the objective fact when examining the overall purport of the contents, even if there is a little difference from the truth or somewhat exaggerated expression, the contents of the first article of this case are about 50 local elections, and in this respect, it is not clear that the head of the 16 Gu/Si/Gun office and the head of the 16 Gu/Si office, who is a member of Busan area, demanded the plaintiff to submit the list of the objective facts and the ○○○ Council.
나아가, 앞서 본 바와 같이, 피고 손○○은 현역 국회의원이 지방자치단체장 선거를 앞두고 위와 같은 자료를 요구한 것을 정상적인 의정활동으로 보기 어렵다는 생각을 가지고, 제보내용의 진위를 확인하기 위해 원고로부터 자료제출을 요구받은 ○○시청 과 일선 구청 관계자, 박○○, 국회 행정자치위원회 직원 및 원고 보좌관 등을 상대로 자료제출을 요구한 사실의 진위 및 그 경위, 용도, 그에 대한 취재원들의 의견을 취재 하는 등 가능한 범위 내에서 적절하고도 충분한 조사를 통해 합리적이고 객관적인 자 료들을 취재하여 그 취재결과를 바탕으로 이 사건 제1기사를 작성하였고, 이 사건 제1 기사를 보도한 후 원고 측도 명단 등의 자료를 요구한 것이 오해의 여지가 있음을 인 정하고 스스로 해당 구청에 자료를 반송한 점 등에 비추어 볼 때, 보도기관인 피고 손 ㅇㅇ이나 피고 신문사로서는 이 사건 제1기사가 진실이라고 믿을 만한 상당한 이유가 있었다고 할 것이다.
C. Sub-committee
Therefore, since the first engineer of this case is not illegal, the plaintiff's assertion of defamation based on the illegality of the first engineer of this case is without merit.
4. Determination as to the second engineer of this case
A. Whether defamation is defamation
(1) According to the contents of the article 2 of this case, the defendant newspaper company and the defendant Jeon Soo-○ did not directly indicate the plaintiff's name in the contents of the article 2 of this case. However, considering the whole purport of the arguments in the article 3, No. 9, No. 10-1, No. 2 of this case, the defendant newspaper company's 16th National Assembly member's term of office, first half of June 13, 2001, the defendant newspaper company's 16th National Assembly member's term of office, first of the article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's article 2 of this case's 2 of this case's 200th National Assembly member's term of office, the plaintiff's 2 of this case's first National Assembly member.
(2) In addition, among the part concerning the plaintiff of the article 2 of this case, the part concerning the plaintiff of the article 2 of this case, "this member was unaware of previous opinion due to parliamentary activities that he did not distinguish public and private areas," and the part "a member revealed that he did not make efforts to develop parliamentary activities and local areas as a member of the National Assembly for private reasons," and the part concerning the plaintiff of the article 2 of this case, "a member revealed that he did not actually reveal the present address of a member of the political person selected by "self-fagrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgs". However, this part concerning the plaintiff among the article 2 of this case, since the plaintiff's second article of this case reported that he was not responsible for the plaintiff's refusal of the special member of the National Assembly for private reasons, it is recognized that the plaintiff was subject to objective evaluation by the article 2 of this case.
B. Whether illegality is denied
(1) Facts of recognition
The following facts may be acknowledged by adding up the whole purport of the pleadings to each entry of evidence Nos. 9-1, 2, 12-5, 6, 8 through 10.
(A) Around June 2001, the Plaintiff asked whether ○○○○ was a member of the National Assembly who was a member of the National Assembly at the time of ○○○○○○○ was willing to be in charge of a member of the budget and settlement special member, on the grounds of the National Assembly’s standing committee and the inspection of the state administration, and the doctor’s degree thesis examination of ○○○○○ University.
(B) To confirm this, the reporters of the Defendant newspaper company visited the Plaintiff’s office several times at the beginning of June, 2201, but around that time, the Plaintiff did not directly talk with the Plaintiff, and the Plaintiff’s assistant ○○○○○ in charge of budget and settlement of accounts cannot be assigned to the special member of the budget and settlement of accounts due to preparation for doctor’s degree thesis, and the Plaintiff’s refusal of the special member of the National Assembly’s budget and settlement of accounts on the very personal ground of the text of doctor’s degree at the ○○ University University. The Plaintiff posted it as an article on June 13, 201.
(다 ) 이러한 기사가 보도된 후 2003. 4. 15. 이 사건 제2기사가 게재되기까지 원 고 측에서 위 노ㅇㅇ의 기사에 대해 피고 신문사를 상대로 정정보도를 청구하거나 해 명서를 보낸 바는 없다.
(라 ) 한편, 피고 신문사 정치부에서는 2003년 4월 무렵 제17대 국회의원 선거를 1년 앞두고 , 국민들의 정치개혁 요구에 부응하고, ○○지역 정치권에서 1988년 이후 김 ㅇㅇ 전 대통령의 소속정당이었던 ○○당, ○○○○당, ○○○당, ○○○당에 의해 그 지역구 국회의원 전 의석이 독점되어 온 지역주의의 틀을 변화시키고자 “지역정치 틀 바꾸자”라는 제목 아래 000당 관련 기사를 2회에 걸쳐 작성하기로 하고, 다선(多選) 중진 국회의원들과 초·재선 국회의원들에 대한 여러 가지 비판여론을 전달하기 위하여 000당 제○○대 초선 국회의원들의 비판사례로서 노○○이 작성한 위 2001년도 기 사 내용을 인용하기로 하고 피고 전○○가 이 사건 제2기사를 작성하였다.
(2) Determination
(A) Public nature
According to the above facts, the article 2 of this case reforms local politics at the time of the 17th election of National Assembly members in front of 1 year, and intends to communicate critical public opinion on criticism of the National Assembly members in Busan area belonging to ○○○○○ Party, it can be deemed that the contents of the plaintiff's parliamentary activities, etc. as a member of the active duty service, which was a public figure, were for the purpose of public interest.
(b)the truth;
The article 2 emphasizes that, considering the overall context, purport of the preparation, etc. of the article 2, it is necessary to emphasize that the OO of the National Assembly, which has affected the political power of ○○ area, should be changed by putting the public opinion on criticism of the plaintiff and the first and second generations, rather than the article for the specific person. However, it is recognized that the plaintiff did not seek to assign a special member of the National Assembly budget and settlement of accounts, which appears important from the viewpoint of the ○○ area for private reasons such as preparing for doctor's degree, but it is consistent with the important part of the statement of fact [However, the article 2 should be in charge of the preliminary member, but it is difficult to conclude the article 2, which is published by the plaintiff in the article 2, and it is insufficient to recognize the authenticity of the part that the plaintiff actually posted the phrase "I are not many other persons?" but it is insufficient to recognize the authenticity of the part that the plaintiff actually made the news report in this case to attract the public interest. However, even if the plaintiff did not know the above fact or simple relation as part that the plaintiff actually made it.
C. Sub-committee
Therefore, since the second engineer of this case is not illegal, the plaintiff's assertion of defamation based on the above legal nature of the second engineer of this case is without merit.
5. Determination as to the third and fourth engineers of this case
A. The plaintiff's assertion
원고는, 2002년도 구청장 선거에서 자신이 박○○를 ㅇㅇㅇ당 후보로 추천하지 않은 사실은 있으나 후보공천에서 탈락시킨 사실이 없음에도 원고가 개인적인 감정으 로 그를 공천하지 않은 것처럼 기사화하였을 뿐만 아니라, 우수한 국회의원으로 여러 번 선정된 바 있음에도 “원고의 의정활동이나 지역발전에 대한 기여도가 기대에 미치 지 못하는 데다가 2002년도 대선을 거치면서 한계를 드러냈기 때문이라는 분석을 내놓 고 있다”, “지역정가에선 원고만 아니면 정당을 가리지 않고 누가 되어도 상관없다는 얘기가 나온다" 라는 등의 간접적이고 우회적인 표현으로 허위의 사실을 적시하여 원고 의 명예를 훼손하였다고 주장한다 .
B. Determination
Of the articles 3 and 4 of this case, there is a lack of direct evidence to acknowledge that the part of the Plaintiff’s ○○○○○○○○ at the time of the election of local government in 2002 was true. However, in full view of the purport of the entire pleadings in the statement in Eul evidence No. 6, in the local government election in 2002, the public authority of the head of ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ was actually exercised at the time of the election of local government in 2002, and it is recognized that the Plaintiff was not recommended as a candidate for 00 days. In light of the fact that Park○○○○’s ○○○○○○○ was actually dismissed from the candidate candidate for 0000,000, and therefore, it is consistent with the truth in the important part of the statement in fact.
In addition, among the article 3 of this case, the part of the article, "It is hard to see as a statement of specific facts that may impair the plaintiff's reputation even if based on the overall context or expression of article 3 and 4 of this case itself, it is hard to see as a statement of fact that the plaintiff's parliamentary activities in the local district of the head of the Gu, following the presidential election of the head of the Gu, have been carried out an analysis that there was a limit due to the lack of the presidential election, following the presidential election of the head of the Gu, and the presidential election of the head of the Gu." and the article 4 of this case, "in the case of ○○ and ○○ region on the local election of the head of the Gu, it is hard to see as a statement of fact that there is no sufficient local parliamentary activities in the local district of the plaintiff by taking advantage of the expression of local circumstances."
In addition, in the election of the 17th National Assembly member of the National Assembly in 2004, the article 3 and 4 of this case are the fact that the OOO is the base of the locked candidate, and the relation between the plaintiff and potential candidates including the plaintiff, and only the fact that the head of YOOO, who was deprived from the Gongcheon-cheon, was elected by going to his office without charge, cannot be deemed to have infringed upon the objective evaluation that the plaintiff received from the society.

(2) The part concerning the fact of default
갑 제25호증의 1, 2, 갑 제26호증의 1, 2, 을 제2호증의 각 기재에 의하면, 원 고의 배우자인 이○○은 납부기한이 2000. 4. 30.인 종합소득세 1,466,320원을 2000. 5. 2 . 납부한 사실이 있는데, 피고 신문사 소속 기자인 피고 박○○은 제17대 국회의원 선 거 직전인 2004. 4. 3. 중앙선거관리위원회로부터 정보를 받아 ㅇㅇ ㅇㅇ 지역구의 입 후보자들에 대한 정보를 비교하는 내용의 이 사건 제5기사를 보도하면서, 후보자 가족 전체의 “최근 5년간 납세 · 체납 실적란에 체납액 누계와 현 체납액을 구별하지 아니 하고 체납액이라고만 표시하고는 원고 가족 전체의 최근 5년간 체납액이 1,455,000원이 라고 적시한 사실이 인정되는바, 이로 인해 국회의원 선거에 출마하는 원고의 공직자 로서의 자질인 준법성, 성실성, 도덕성에 대하여 원고가 사회로부터 받는 객관적인 평 가가 침해되었다 할 것이다.
