    I read through it but defamation per se still talks about false statements. The difference is that you don’t have to prove damages.
    But while reading up on it, turns out the first comment was indeed right. Publication of a Private Fact can be punishable even if the statement is true.

    It’s very questionable wether the statement fulfills the requirements. It’s already publicly known that FOX employees require vaccinations and it’s doubtful disclosing this fact is offensive to a reasonable person but there is at least some potential here.
