Which event, more than any other, signified the beginning of the Middle Ages, 'dark ages,' in Europe? *

torisob [31]

The correct answer is D. You could sue for defamation if the allegations were true, but your reputation suffered.

Explanation

Defamation is the name by which the action of spreading an accusation towards another person is known that can cause damage to the honor, dignity or reputation of the accused who is accused. Therefore, if Senator Jones has evidence, he could sue for defamation of the media. However, the fragment also refers to Anne Tracy having witnesses to support her accusation, so it would be unlikely that Senator Jones had evidence to declare him innocent. On the other hand, if he were innocent, his reputation in society had already been affected. So the correct answer is D. He could sue for defamation if the accusations were true but his reputation was damaged.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Jefferson reconciled party differences through a peaceful transition and allowed the federal constitution being used as a working document after the disputed election.

2) Thomas Jefferson signed a bill banning all trade with Europe. No ships could enter the United States, and no ships could leave. The purpose of the trade ban was to keep America out of the war between Britain and France.

3) Jefferson expanded the American territory by almost double the size when he purchased the Louisiana territory which cost $15 million from Napoleon Bonaparte and France which were cash strapped due to ongoing wars at the time.
