If a correction is demanded as provided in NRS 41.336 and is not published or broadcast within 20 days in substantially as conspicuous a manner in the newspaper or by the broadcaster as the statements claimed to be libelous or slanderous, the plaintiff may plead and prove such demand and failure to correct and may recover general and special damages. In addition, the plaintiff may recover exemplary damages if the plaintiff can prove that the defendant published or broadcast the statement with actual malice. Actual malice shall not be presumed or inferred from the publication or broadcast.
