Very likely.
Even if it doesn't state exactly that you are indeed using illicit substances or are 'lazy,' even if it was not his intention to implicate you in this fashion, it is likely that that could be detrimental to your standing with this paper.
And impersonation is usually a pretty good way to get released from an employ in newspapers.
If nothing else, take it up with a supervisor to him, and ask what they think.

If this was published under your name, I think you could probably seek damages.
I would, however, bring this up to your superiors first, to insure that they are aware that you are concerned and likely to take action.
In most cases, the individual would/SHOULD be dismissed immediately from the employ, and if there is a substancial damage to your professional standing, reparition might be in order. This can, legally, be done without much cost to you as long as you keep the case civil.
Look into it. I had a fraternity brother who was the co-editor of the university's newspaper have a similar situation happen, and quickly enough, he became the sole editor, plus a substantial raise from the university to keep him from seeking legal action.

I'm no lawyer, but if there's evidence you didn't write that, she should start updating her resume, at the very least.

I think the obvious question that people are forgetting to ask is: Are you a lazy drug user? I mean that's bound to be the defensive attorney's first question  |

Did she give you enough time for the Right of free reply? Still that should be nall and void considering she reported this under his name. One should not have to reply to something that was written under his name...His response will not fix the damage that is already done and may ultimately hurt his case more by bringing this to an even bigger shoutfest....That is definately libel. |

Yea that is more then lible, that is...crap whats the term called defamation of character with intent of emotional distress...plus you can fight the cause that it not only hurt your career standing, but also your relationship with the public in general. You have a lawsuit on your hands buddy and I strongly encourage you to not let yourself get stepped on. |
