If a lie about someone is distributed in such a way that it will be read by others (eg printed in a newspaper, on the internet, and so on) it is called libel. Libel is false and malicious publication printed for the purpose of defaming (damaging) another person.
If the lie is spoken rather than published, it's called slander.
