I want you to remember this as well (in case you were thinking of this sort of defense):

"A repeat of a libel is a libel"

If you repeat a libelous statement, you can be held liable,
even though it is attributed. Disclaimers such as "it is alleged"
or "it is reported" won't save you.


Private citizens enjoy a different standard than public officials or public figures. They must prove only negligence or carelessness to successfully sue for libel.
