Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Defamatory statement. This is a factual statement that is likely to harm another person's reputation. Because opinions are not factual, they do not generally count as defamatory statements.
Falsity. The statement must be false. Making a true statement, no matter how mean, is not defamation.
Communicated. The statement must be communicated to at least one person other than the plaintiff.
Injury. The plaintiff must show some injury.
