    a. could be properly brought in federal district court.

    Explanation:

    The reporter wrote a false statement on the relationship between the two singers. The company of the reporter is in a different state from the residence of the singer. Due to jurisdiction, the best option is to take the suit to a court in a federal district. The suit will be properly settled in a federal district court rather than a state court.
