Slander, as defined by law, generally refers words falsely spoken or recorded, that damage the reputation of another person. When words are written down and published, in media such as newspaper, in print (such as a book) or more recently, on the world-wide web, it is referred to as "Libel" and as such, may be actionable. Lawyers get questions about about slander and libel frequently, and if you feel that remarks made on Facebook, MySpace or a personal blog have injured your reputation or caused you to lose business, you may have a claim against the person making them. However, you should realize that, depending on your local and state laws, if it can be shown the remarks merely represent an "opinion", then they might not rise to the level of "libel" because they lack malicious intent. Your best bet, in any case, is to seek the counsel of a lawyer who can review the situation and give you advice based on his or her findings.
