If intended to simply bring contempt, disrespect, hatred, or ridicule to a person or entity it is likely a civil breach of law. However, if it causes mayhem or breach of peace, it can be a criminal breach of law. Yet, again, if the statement is newsworthy, even if defamatory, proof of benefit to the public is required to avoid criminal complaint.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Law Dictionary: <a href="http://thelawdictionary.org/libel/#ixzz397KZKry9" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://thelawdictionary.org/libel/#ixzz397KZKry9" rel="nofollow">What is LIBEL? definition of LIBEL (Black&#039;s Law Dictionary)</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
