A person may be considered a limited purpose public figure “if he is attempting to have, or realistically can be expected to have, a major impact on the resolution of a specific pub- lie dispute that has foreseeable and substantial ramifications for persons beyond its immediate participants.” Id. at 180-81, 484 A.2d at 80 (quoting Waldbaum v. Fairchild Publications Inc., 201 U.S.App.D.C. 301 , cert. denied, 449 U.S. 898 , 101 S..Ct. 266, 66 L.Ed.2d 128 , 627 F.2d 1287, 1292 (1980)).
