Tip of the Day While solving the DI and QA sections, easy questions but with tedious calculations require prior attention. Do not leave them towards the end. Last year's Question of the day (30-Dec-10) The term "malice" was not newly invented for this case, but came from existing libel law. In many jurisdictions, including Alabama (where the case arose), proof of "actual malice" (actual knowledge of falsity, or reckless disregard for the truth) was required in order for punitive damages to be awarded, or for other increased penalties. Since proof of the writer's malicious intentions is hard to provide, proof that the writer knowingly published a falsehood was generally accepted as proof of malice, under the assumption that only a malicious person would knowingly publish a falsehood. In Hoeppner v. Dunkirk Printing Co., 254 N.Y. 95 (1930), similarly, the court said: "The plaintiff alleges that this criticism of him and of his work was not fair and was not honest; it was published with actual malice, ill will and spite. If he establishes this allegation, he has made out a cause of action. No comment or criticism, otherwise libelous, is a fair or just comment on a matter of public interest if it be made through actual ill will and malice."
According to the passage, a criticism can be called "libelous" only if:
| OPTIONS | | | | 1) | It is published after the work in question is consumed completely – a book, movie or a CD. | | 2) | It is published without any reason for legal action. | | 3) | The creator of the work in question is a renowned person with considerable power. | | 4) | It was published with actual malice. | | 5) | It was published without actual malice. |
