A journalist who wanted to buy a car from me has posted my phone and email conversations with him verbatim in a magazine article in Mens Journal. He has used my name and information about me. My conversations are verbatim whilst his are paraphrased which has embarrased me and made me look bad.
I am extremely angry about this however being from the UK originally I am unsure of where I stand in the US legally and my ability to take action.
I am in NY the 'journalist' live in RI
Can I sue this guy for defamation / hurt distress ?
