What is the name of your state? Nevada.
If I post somthing online and within the post awknowledge the post to be fictional, can I still end up loosing a libel case. Lets say I know a girl named Jane Doe. An on a forum I post.
"Jane Doe is a filthy whore with various sexually transmitied diseases.
This is a fictional post and only to be taken for entertainment value."
What if I make fun of a company, I seem to see on telivision alot of shows who make fun of buisnesses and individuals in ways which are obviously untrue. If I were to write that a hamster was the leader of a major corporation could I be sued for libel. Or would the absurdness of the statement be proof enough that it was intended as fiction.
Again the main question I have is:
Is it considered libel if the information is presented as fictional, and not to be taken as true in any way.
