If there was truth in the things that were said then I doubt very much if he'd have a leg to stand on.

It just depends on how much truth. It's like the difference between saying "Person A befriends a lot of young children." which may well be a fact and saying "Person A is a paedophile." which is an unproven assumption based on the fact.
