I tend to use both.
Slander is a false or malicious claim that may harm someone's reputation, and;
Libel is a method of defamation expressed by print, writing, pictures, signs, effigies, or any communication embodied in physical form that is injurious to a person's reputation, exposes a person to public hatred, contempt or ridicule, or injures a person in his/her business or profession.
In simple terms: libel is a written falsehood and slander is a spoken falsehood. SLander latter being more difficult to prove.
I am aware of what they mean, I just like to use both as I point of expression.
