¶59 The City contends that the statements made at the February 14 council meeting were privileged and constitutionally protected and that the City, therefore, cannot be held liable for those statements. In this connection, the City relies on Skinner v. Pistoria, 194 Mont. 257, 633 P.2d 672 (1981), the statutory privilege contained in § 27-1-804, MCA, and New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254, 84 S. Ct. 710 (1964).
