OK, it is "libel"; regardless, then both GV and myself are wrong.
"it's" is a contraction for "it is". Look it up for us professor.
when I'm wrong I admit it folks.
: What's worse than someone misspelling easy words on this board? Someone who corrects that person's spelling with even more misspelled words and poor grammar!!
: Keith, the word is LIBEL, not lible! *A false publication, as in writing, print, signs, or pictures, that damages a person's reputation.* Slander, basically.
: The word LIABLE means *Legally obligated; responsible* but not specifically for being guilty of negligence; it's a much broader term.
: Finally, the word "its" is the possessive form of "it," not the contraction of "it is" (it's) as you attempted to use it in your post.
: Before you criticize others for their spelling and grammar, make sure you're not ignorant either!
: Of course, the sad fact is neither you nor Ken nor any of the PFS reps caught it because NONE of you seem to be able to write better than my 10-year-old daughter!
: "Education will set you free! FIGHT IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY!"

: : TO:GV
: : By the way, its "lible" not "liable". Liable is what you are when guilty of negligence.
: : Oh, and the defense--"the truth shall set you free"...
