Answer:

b. is protected from defamation liability under the opinion/analysis quasi-privilege.

Explanation:

Opinion/analysis privilege gives freedom of speech under the United States First Amendment.

The author is not making an exact statement that James Jackson has robbed a particular amount, using a particular means.

So his statements can be seen as his own opinion based on the $8 billion write-down that Jackson posted.

torisob [31]

Amateurs who cash bad checks because of some financial crisis but have little identification with a criminal subculture are called naive check forger. Forgery is defined by general or common law as the fraudulent execution of a legal document, which entails liability.

The term "naive forgery" was created to describe forgeries carried out by people with no prior criminal history and no prior contact or interaction with offenders. It is intended to exclude forgeries that are committed as a byproduct of other crimes and forgeries that are either the initial or later stages of a criminal career. Forgeries of the kinds that have been eradicated sometimes occur when criminals enter a business office and discover a drawer full of checks, which they frequently — and foolishly — cash.

The forgeries produced by embezzlers and occasionally by con artists are also excluded, mostly because they serve as a byproduct or a secondary method of committing their crimes. The fact that the embezzler was in a position of trust further sets him apart from the forger. On the grounds that it unnecessarily restricts the range of crimes and hence lessens the effectiveness of our generalisations, the legitimacy of how we define the class of forgeries about which we attempt to generalise may be questioned. The nature of the prior records of individuals found guilty of forgery will provide the answer to any such question we may have.
