Question

It can be hard for a business to win a commercial disparagement tort

because to prevail a business must be able to show
O A. that the company took all reasonable actions to counteract the
libel
O B. that the defendant used unfair competition that resulted in the
loss
O C. that their customer base cannot be recovered
O D. an accurate projection of how much money was lost as a result of
the slander or libel

Answer 1

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The commercial disparagement is a type of 'tort' in which a person makes some derogatory statement against the business or a person causing them harm. It is also known as business disparagement.

Though it can be hard for the plaintiff to prove commercial disparagement yet certain parameters or prerequisites are laid in the law which can be shown as proof. One of the prerequisites is to show financial loss occurred due to the slander or libel. The plaintiff can show his/her financial losses occurred after the libel is traded in the market.

Therefore, option D is correct.
