That's a tricky one. At common law, truth was a defense to a charge of libel (written) or slander (spoken). States have rewritten the law, so something called "disparagement" may not be subject to a defense of truth. As corporations dominate our legislatures and congress, disparagement frequently turns not on truth but on whether you intended to hurt the person or business. (And succeeded, since harm is usually still a requirement).

What are some examples of a conditional statement?
A simple example of a conditional statement is: If a function is differentiable, then it is continuous. An example of a converse is: Original Statement: If a number is even, then it is divisible by 2. Converse Statement: If a number is divisible by 2, then it is even. Keep in mind though, that the converse of a statement is not always true! For example: Original Statement: A triangle is a polygon. Converse Statement: A polygon is a triangle. (Clearly this last statement is not true, for example a square is a polygon, but it is certainly not a triangle!)
