      XPost: alt.journalism.newspapers, alt.politics.republicans, alt.       an.rush-limbaugh       XPost: talk.politics.guns, sac.politics       From: democrat-insurrection@mail.house.gov              https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/sarah-palins-libel-lawsuit-       against-new-york-times-reopens              Former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin returns to court Monday       for a retrial of her libel case against The New York Times related to a       2017 editorial that falsely, or mistakenly, linked her to a mass shooting       six years earlier in which then-Arizona Congresswoman Gabby Giffords was       critically wounded.              The Times admitted that the editorial was inaccurate, but corrected it and       called it an "honest mistake."              In the first trial, in 2022, nine jurors unanimously decided the newspaper       could not be held liable for the editorial, which falsely linked her       campaign rhetoric to the mass shooting.              However, Judge Jed S. Rakoff, in Manhattan, rejected Palin’s claims in a       ruling issued while a jury deliberated. The judge then let jurors deliver       their verdict, which went against Palin, according to the Associated       Press.              The trial, expected to last a week, comes after the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court       of Appeals restored the case last year. Jury selection is scheduled to       begin Monday morning.              Times spokesperson Charlie Stadtlander thinks the newspaper will prevail       in the retrial.              “That reference was an unintended error, and quickly corrected," he said.       "We’re confident we will prevail and intend to vigorously defend the       case."              Palin, a onetime Republican vice presidential candidate and former Alaska       governor, says the editorial damaged her reputation and career.                     --       November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look       forward to America being great again.              The disease known as Kamala Harris has been effectively treated and       eradicated.              We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.              Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden       fiasco, President Trump.              Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the       The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
