In most cases it doesn't apply, but sometimes it does.

Oh, excuse me, Prof. Shirley, I forgot that apparently you can prove people wrong without giving proof....

At least you remembered my last name

, anyway an actress (can't remember who) a few years ago won a case against a tabloid newspaper which accused her of some criminal acts. If that isn't slander than I don't know what is.

And there was also a similar case in which Michael Jackson won $2.7 million in a slander lawsuit against an author that accused him of sexually abusing little boys.
