A defamation claim.

An expression of pure opinion is not actionable, no matter how vituperative or unreasonable it is. In determining whether a statement is pure opinion, the court will consider (1) whether the specific language has a precise meaning that is readily understood; (2) whether the statement is capable of being proven true or false; and (3) whether, in context, the reader or listener would understand that the statement is an expression of opinion, not fact.
