It's quite possible that Miss whoever is the "dumbest" literary agent ever,  
not just currently.  And I'm stating this as an *opinion*, which anyone who  
has taken my class in Defamation A101 (for idiots) understands is not  
actionable.
 
It's very clear to children that calling someone a name is not defamation  
and it doesn't even matter if you do it using a loudspeaker like  Wikipedia.  
Defamation would involve something like saying "and she  embezzled a million
dollars from her last job."
 
That would not be an "opinion", but rather a statement of fact.  Then  she'd
have a case to sue whoever said it for defamation.
 
Please.
