Answer:
B). Damages are presumed in libel cases even if the statement is not defamatory on its face.
Explanation:
Libel is characterized as the 'published written or pictorial false statement which unjustly seeks to damage someone's reputation.' The statement which backs this definition would be 'damages are presumed in libel cases even if the statement is not defamatory on its face' as it is published information that has reached to the masses. Thus, serious damages are expected and therefore, the publisher needs to be sued for such a defamatory act. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
