Answer to Question 1

If a person is protected by qualified privilege his remarks will be immune from defamation suit, provided he made them in good faith.

Answer to Question 2

Business defamation is a per se tort; it can amount to strict liability once the plaintiff has proved that the damaging statement was published.
