It would be an interesting experiment if a blogger adds a small disclaimer: "This is a work of fiction &| gossip" to his "libelous, slanderous" "claims"... Or put every adjective in "quotes" with "some say" at the beginning. This would confuse the lawsuits even further.

Adding "may or may not" to every sentence would also be a good idea.

Most public figures already do something like this when speaking or writing. "Allegedly", is pretty much becoming a salt term for every verb and is well on its way to joining the "most used words in english" right after "the" and "a".
