The cure for this is to call the person who libeled a liar, to present him as someone who willfully says untrue things and to remind that he is not trustworthy everytime he tries to present something as a fact. His affirmation shouldn't be dismissed as a little mistake but it should be repeated with emphasis as a scandalous attempt at misinformation from someone who pretends he wants to educate the public. In a communication battle, this is a very handy tool to have : the proof that your interlocutor is a liar. For the general public who prefer not to be bothered to check facts, this is a strong enough argument to not listen to him.
