Defamation is considered to be a false statement that injures someone's reputation and exposes him or her to public contempt, hatred, ridicule, or condemnation. In case the false statement is published in print or through broadcast media, such as radio or TV, it is libel and if it is spoken, it is called slander. Defamation is a form of personal injury that does no physical harm but can be extremely harmful to a person's reputation or character.
