单词 Fair comment
释义 公允評論
Statement made in good faith and  based on true facts. Fair comment may be used as a defence in defamation cases, but the defence can be defeated if the dominant motive for publishing the words complained of was the defendant’s malice or improper motive: Thomas v Bradbury Agnew & Co Ltd & Anor [1906] 2 KB 627 (CA). The statement must be one of opinion and not of fact, and must be a matter of public interest: Cheng Albert v Tse Wai Chun Paul [2000] 4 HKC 1; Eastern Express Publisher Ltd & Anor v Mo Man Ching & Anor [1999] 3 HKLRD 530 (CFA); Oriental Daily Publisher Ltd & Anor v Ming Pao Holdings Ltd & Ors [1999] 4 HKC 354, [2000] 1 HKC 712. A defence of fair comment shall not fail by reason only that the truth of every allegation of fact is not proved if the expression of opinion is fair comment having regard to such of the facts alleged or referred to in the words complained of as are proved: Defamation Ordinance (Cap 21) s 27. See also Comment; Defamation; Malice.
本著真誠而根據真實事實作出的陳述。公允評論可在誹謗案件中用作免責辯護,但如公布該等被申訴的文字的主要動機屬被告人的惡意或不正當的動機,則可推翻該免責辯護:Thomas v Bradbury Agnew [1906] 2 KB 627(英國上訴法院)。該等陳述必須為意見陳述而非事實陳述,並須涉及公眾利益:Cheng Albert & Anor v Tse Wai Chun Paul [2000] 4 HKC 1;Eastern Express Publisher Ltd & Anor v Mo Man Ching & Anor [1999] 3 HKLRD 530; Oriental Daily Publisher Ltd v Anor v Ming Pao Holdings Ltd & Ors [1999] 4 HKC 354, [2000] 1 HKC 712。以公允評論作為免責辯護不得僅因並非每項事實的指稱皆獲證明屬實而不能成立,但該項意見的表達,在顧及所申訴的言詞所指稱或提述的已獲證明的事實後,須為屬公允評論者:《誹謗條例》(第21章)第27條。另見 Comment; Defamation; Malice。
