Would that be slander or libel?
Which one is it where you're innocent if you're comment is true?
Defamation is only relevant if the communication is false.
Slander is defamation spoken and heard.
Libel is defamation that is seen, although media (which is seen and/or heard) is treated as libel.
Thanks, I got it now. If they go to court they don't have much of a case then. MacDonald's claim can be shown to be fact.
It probably doesn't matter. When you read the whole affidavit they're just doing that "Boo hoo, me such a victim", taggiya thing, right now. Basically they're just rubbing the imaginary tears from their eyes, pointing at MacDonald and demanding mamma spank. They haven't actually sued yet.
Ooh...the interview was with Sun. Gotta tune into Sun to hear their take.
