    Default Palin Lawsuit Against NY Times Going to Trial

    The american press has always hated palin. They even hate her kids and went after them in 2008.

    jan 22 2022 After a four-year wait, Sarah Palin's libel case against The New York Times will move forward with jury selection scheduled to begin Monday.

    U.S. District Court Judge Jed Rakoff has announced that date in a federal courthouse in Manhattan, blocking off an estimated two weeks for the trial.

    "This trial is not only entertaining, it will address an important principle: you don't get to make up nasty stuff about somebody you don't like and print it anyway," the New York Post's Kyle Smith wrote in an editorial after the announcement the case will go to trial.

    Palin has alleged that the Times' 2017 editorial linking one of her political action committee ads to the 2011 mass shooting that wounded then-Rep. Gabby Giffords, D-Ariz., "violated the law and its own policies" in suggesting the ad incited the attack by shooter Jared Lee Loughner.

    Palin's legal team will have to prove actual malice by editorial author James Bennet, who wrote: "Before the shooting, Sarah Palin's political action committee circulated a map that showed the targeted electoral districts of Ms. Giffords and 19 other Democrats under stylized cross hairs."

    Hours after the editorial ran, the Times revised the editorial and published a series of corrections, adding "no connection to the shooting was ever established."

    Rakoff had initially dismissed Palin's lawsuit for a "cognizable lack of actual malice," but the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against Rakoff and the complaint was revived.

    I have never been a palin fan because i think she's dumb. But i hate the white-hating racists and america-hating traitors at the NYT and hope she bankrupts them.
