• predicting that Kentucky would follow single publication rule and that republication is a narrow exception to that rule
• explaining that a hyperlink does not amount to a republication because it is missing “the critical feature of republication,” which is “that the original text of the article was changed or the contents of the article presented directly to a new audience”
• website articles that referenced original defamatory article did not fall within republication exception because they merely called existence of article to attention of new audience and did not present defamatory content of article to audience
• a hyperlink is merely a“‘new means for accessing the referenced article.”
