In Massachusetts, defamation, harassment, and breach of fiduciary duty are indeed separate legal issues. While defamation focuses on false statements harming reputation, harassment involves repeated distress-causing behavior, and breach of fiduciary duty pertains to board members' obligations. Each can be pursued independently based on the circumstances. If you have more questions, feel free to ask!
