defamacast

defamacast (di-fam-[schwa]-kast). Defamation by television or radio broadcast. • The word was first used in American Broadcasting–Paramount Theatres, Inc. v. Simpson, 126 S.E.2d 873, 879 (Ga. Ct. App. 1962). Although Prosser called it “a barbarous word” (William Prosser, The Law of Torts 753 [4th ed. 1971]), another authority has said that “[t]he word seems to be quite apt” (Laurence H. Eldredge, The Law of Defamation § 12, at 77 [1978]). See DEFAMATION.
