What is defamation?

Answer:
Defamation is a form of harassment usually defined as spreading false information about an entity.

Defamation can be verbal or written,
but is usually verbal.  Defamation is punishable in most countries.  It usually is performed by disgruntled employees or angry citizens and can be damaging to a person's credibility or notoriety.

Defamation as a crime is punishable in civil courts and sometimes in criminal courts, but mostly the court orders the individual to cease and desist the defamation.
