Defamation in print (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

libel

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">defamation in print</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for libel that I've seen before include "Written defamation" , "Calumnious writing" , "Offence" , "Damaging publication" , "Defame in writing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, The Times, the L.A. Times Daily, the Universal, the USA Today and the Newsday.com.
