HOWARD v. SAVANNAH COLLEGE OF ART DESIGN, INC

WELTNER, Justice.

A newspaper reporter refused to answer certain questions propounded to her during a deposition taken in the course of civil litigation. Her refusal was based upon her assertion of a purported "qualified reporter's privilege."

The trial court held: "Georgia has no statutory qualified reporter's privilege. . . . [She] has no qualified reporter's privilege under the law of this state."

This holding was correct. Vaughn v. State, 259 Ga. 325 ( 381 S.E.2d 30) (1989).

Judgment affirmed. All the Justices concur.
