[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m going with the Cambridge and Oxford Dictionaries over Wikipedia. [/quote] PP wasn’t citing the Oxford English Dictionary. It’s was google AI’s “Oxford Languages” dictionary, which is found at https://languages.oup.com/google-dictionary-en/ Regardless, I don’t think a judge is going to let definition of the word smear campaign determine the outcome of this case. It’s going to hinge on whether the actions taken by the defendants amount to retaliation. And retaliation does not require spreading falsehoods. Nor is it limited to firing, negative reviews, being passed over for a promotion or any of the more egregious examples provided by an early poster. I feel like there are too many posters commenting who repeatedly attempt to refine legal terms. As PP mentioned, getting a jury to agree with less direct forms of SH and retaliation will be a heavier lift, but that is common across multiple areas of litigation. [/quote]
