SLANDER:
type of defamation. Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person's reputation or standing in the community. Because slander is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. If the statement is made via broadcast media -- for example, over the radio or on TV -- it is considered libel, rather than slander, because the statement has the potential to reach a very wide audience.

Sorry to disagree, but you're a bit off on this. If anything, it would be libel, but what I'm saying is true, so it's not either.

But can you PROVE it's true. If not, then he's been wronged, by the letter of law.

Damned shame about MJ, btw...

Yeah, MJ should just rest.

The guy in Shalamar should get some kind of royalties for inventing the moonwalk though. :lol: Just sayin'. It is a fact.
