It's quite possible that Miss whoever is the "dumbest" literary agent ever, not just currently. And I'm stating this as an *opinion*, which anyone who has taken my class in Defamation A101 (for idiots) understands is not actionable.

It's very clear to children that calling someone a name is not defamation and it doesn't even matter if you do it using a loudspeaker like Wikipedia. Defamation would involve something like saying "and she embezzled a million dollars from her last job."

That would not be an "opinion", but rather a statement of fact. Then she'd have a case to sue whoever said it for defamation.

Please.
