Negligence refers to a legal concept where a party fails to exercise reasonable care, resulting in harm or damage to another person. This failure can lead to liability in civil lawsuits, particularly when it comes to defamation risks in narrative journalism, as journalists must maintain a duty of care when reporting on individuals or events. Understanding negligence helps journalists navigate the legal landscape and avoid potential pitfalls that could arise from careless reporting.
