FAQ
A claim for slander includes the elements for defamation, which are: “(1) a false and defamatory statement, (2) unprivileged publication to a third person, (3) fault, amounting to at least negligence, and (4) actual or presumed damages.” Additionally, the defamatory statement must be made orally.
The most common defenses to defamation are: 1) truth; 2) consent; 3) privilege; and 4) the statute of limitations. Perhaps the most distinct aspect of the defamation cause of action is that falsity is required. In other words, the statement publicized about the plaintiff must be false in order to prove defamation.
Stay Calm : Don't react impulsively. Gather Information : Understand the details of the gossip or slander. Maintain Professionalism : Keep your composure and avoid retaliating. Address the Source : If appropriate, consider speaking directly to the person spreading the rumors.
Slander can be hard to prove, as the complainant must show the slanderer was driven by malice and knew their claims were false. Slander is different from libel, which are false statements made through print or broadcast.
Second, libel is actionable per se (i.e. without proof of damage) whereas slander, subject to exceptions (see below), is actionable only upon proof of 'special' damage (actual damage is probably a less misleading and therefore better phrase to use though)
