A court convicted the editor in chief of the Russian edition of Forbes magazine of slander Wednesday after his magazine published an article on the real estate and construction business of the wife of the mayor of Moscow. In a sweeping interpretation of law that is likely to have a chilling effect on journalism here, the court ruled against the editor, not for the contents of the article, but rather for commenting publicly on the dispute surrounding its publication.
