In a significant ruling, a US judge has determined that Netflix's series 'Baby Reindeer' was incorrectly promoted as a 'true story,' allowing Fiona Harvey, the real-life individual depicted in the series, to proceed with her defamation lawsuit against the streaming giant. The court found that the portrayal of Harvey was potentially libelous, leading to a favorable ruling for her case, which could seek damages totaling up to $170 million. This ruling marks a notable defeat for Netflix, as the judge denied the company's attempts to dismiss the lawsuit, stating that the termination of its claim was not justified. As the case moves forward, it highlights the ongoing legal challenges faced by Netflix over the interpretation of its content.
