Examples of Sullivan in a Sentence

1. David Gibbs III:

   It is tragically wrong to deny a ministry its day in court when it is publicly maligned, the 1964 Sullivan ruling was intended to protect national media when there was no public internet or social media. This is the perfect moment for the Court to reconsider that legal standard in light of today’s technology. Greater accountability will increase civility and journalistic integrity.

2. Lovely Warren:

   I'm not going to stand here and tell Police Cynthia Herriott-Sullivan that for a 9-year-old to have to be pepper-sprayed is OK. It's not, i don't see that as who we are as a department, and we're going to do the work we have to do to ensure that these kinds of things don't happen.

3. Joanne Lin:

   From the beginning, this administration has sent the message that State John Sullivan will no longer prioritize efforts to hold the global community to account for human rights, reports of the omission of key passages pertaining to sexual and reproductive rights, women's rights and the rights of marginalized populations, combined with the Administration's deference to known human rights violators like the governments of Saudi Arabia and Turkey, make us skeptical that these reports present a full picture of human rights around the world.

4. Carlos Samour:

   Was that a waste of time? he asked. When young Cierra Cowden had the courage to take the stand and talk about how she missed waking up to her dad's singing: was that a waste of time? When Sandy Phillips got up and told the jury about Jessica's enthusiasm for life: was that a waste of time? When Tom Sullivan, a man with a larger than life personality, got up and broke down on the stand talking about his close friendship with his son, was that a waste of time? Samour pointed out that with no appeals in sight, this trial has officially wrapped up in just over 3 years, saying that's record time for a death penalty case. Is prison really a much less severe sentence than death? he asked. Holmes will die in the custody of the department of corrections. Samour told the victims that there are no words to adequately describe what they've gone through. I've been doing criminal law for 2 decades and before this case I'd never seen a police officer or first responder break down on the witness stand.

5. Bucks County Judge Diane Gibbons:

   Evil attracts evil. Evil recognizes evil. And in Jacob Sullivan, you found one of your own, you like rape. You like murder. Thats a fact.
