Some legal experts think the Washington Post could be liable for the Amber Heard op-ed at the center of Johnny Depp's successful defamation suit against her.

You can now listen to Fox News articles!and legal experts think the Washington Post could be liable for publishing the op-ed at the center of the bombshell trial, but that case may be difficult to make.

"On top of that, they also believed that Amber Heard acted in a punitive way with falsifying these stories. So it's the duty of a newspaper and other media outlets to vet or filter information before they publish it to the world and potentially damage the reputation of somebody irreparably," Claypool added."The Washington Post is not off the hook."

Claypool felt Depp's team should bring legal action against the newspaper owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos to set a precedent for similar cases going forward. Legal Insurrection founder William A. Jacobson, a professor at Cornell Law School, isn’t as convinced that the Post could be held liable, but he doesn’t completely rule it out.

The Washington Post issued a lengthy editor’s note on the 2018 Amber Heard op-ed at the center of Johnny Depp’s defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife.
