Plaintiff sued for defamation, alleging that defendants falsely told several reporters that plaintiff had provided explicit nude photographs of Bezos to the National Enquirer as part of a conspiracy to damage Bezos. On defendants’ Anti-SLAPP motion, plaintiff’s only evidence was his declaration stating that several news reporters had told him that Bezos told them plaintiff had given the photos to the National Enquirer. This decision holds that the trial court properly excluded those portions of plaintiff’s declaration as hearsay. He offered the reporters’ statements for the truth of what they said they (not plaintiff) had heard from defendants. Sweetwater Union High School Dist. v. Gilbane Building Co. (2019) 6 Cal.5th 931 does not allow in all inadmissible testimony in opposition to an Anti-SLAPP motion, but only statements in affidavits or testimony in prior proceedings made under penalty of perjury. The reporters’ statements weren’t of that sort.
