OPINION

CHARLES KREGER, Justice.

In this accelerated interlocutory appeal we must determine whether the trial court erred in failing to dismiss a physician's defamation claim and award attorneys' fees to the media defendants under the Texas Citizens Participation Act ("TCPA"). See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. §§ 27.001-.011 (West Supp.2013); see also id. § 27.008(b). We affirm the trial court's order.
