Realtors and Defamation

Galley Friend B.W. sends us this story about a pair of LA realtors suing CSI for defamation.

I don't know much about defamation law (specifically, how it's different from libel law), but I wonder if realtors who advertise extensively, using images of themselves, count as public figures.

Defamation law consists of libel and slander law.

I hope they have billboards like Paul Rudd's in I Love You, Man.
