Libelous used in a sentence

Libelous in a sentence as an adjective

This borders on libelous, in my opinion. If all Lish passwords had been stored in the clear, I think they would have said that.

I would go further and say libelous. The video game companies really need to start suing.

Saying that the filtering is a conspiracy to help Facebook make money may well be libelous.

What if it's not a frustrated customer but a libelous, frustrated competitor instead?

Except that those are not the words on a libelous, frustrated competitor. I've seen these claims validated over and over again both by posts on HN but also people I trust that have worked with MongoDB under load.

It's like saying "because we can't erase every single physical record in the world you can't demand to take down that libelous billboard in Times Square". Not that I think Google is that billboard, it's just indexing what's already there.

The most it could be is slanderous/libelous. A similar video about Jesus or any other individual, involved with a religion or not, would be the same.

Courts have routinely ruled that the freedom of speech doesn't extend to libelous material, and I'm pretty sure they would conclude likewise about copyrighted material.

Most of those who propose measures to limit anonymous comment try to clearly define the scope of their intentions -- for example, it might only apply to misstatements of fact, or potentially libelous remarks. This one simply makes it a requirement that comments be removed on request -- and it doesn't describe the standing of the requester or the basis of the request.

A person who has committed a criminal act but has not been tried for it, or has been tried and exonerated, is not a criminal, and for anyone to call him a criminal is libelous. It therefore follows that, within the American justice system, committing a crime and getting away with it is substantially identical to not committing a crime at all.

I'm also having a hard time drumming up sympathy for Gawker - they have consistently and repeatedly proven themselves to be complete unprofessionals, have zero journalistic integrity or credibility, and have some of the worst, borderline libelous "reporting" I've seen on any major blogs.
