Some sample questions from this category:

* Would it be possible to defame someone by simple juxtaposition? By this is I mean depicting them in a derogatory position. An example of this would be a museum placing a waxwork of someone not guilty of murder in a "chamber of horrors".
* Would it be correct to say in most cases that "it is for the judge to decide whether the words are capable of a defamatory meaning and, if they are, it is for the jury to decide if they do in reality constitute a defamation of the plaintiff"?
* Would it be correct to say that "defamation" and "libel" are two interchangeable words and that they mean the same thing in reality?
* In which branch of English law is defamation normally found?
* Which one of the following publications is not open to a defence of "absolute privilege"?
