Townhall ^ | Cortney O'Brien

Former Gov. Sarah Palin appears to be seriously considering a libel case against The New York Times. The Times published an editorial Wednesday night in which they revisited a conspiracy theory regarding the attack on Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) in 2011.

Because she's a public figure, she has to prove malice aforethought in a suit....which ought to be a slam-dunk seeing it's the New York Slimes!

Do it! The Slimes must learn that there are consequences for their lies. Without it, they will just continue as usual.

Absolutely do it, Sarah. The failing NYT can be yours if you get the right lawyer.

“Do it”

I’d suggest a nice round sum like 100 Billion dollars. Give the Slimes the full Hulkster treatment.

She used surveyor points. She didn’t use gun targets. I pointed this out way back in 2010.

I don’t think it matters to them one way or the other.

Katy Couric - her staff - obviously tampered with a tape regarding guns etc that made the participants looking like fools when asked a ‘simple’ question but a pause (Rosemary Woods anyone) made it look like they were imbeciles.

VCDL had it thrown out by the judge...it is being appealed....

You can ‘sue them’ all you want but the only one making any ‘money’ is the lawyers once the ‘system’ can get the trials strung out.

As to suits in general, it ought to be set that in most cases the Lawyers get nothing unless the case is won.

There would be fewer frivolous suits if the shysters weren’t allowed to build up the hours THEN tell you the case is impossible.

The pack of lies they constantly spread will not be stopped unless it starts costing a lot of money.

She has to take them to court .
They keep doing it because they make money spreading lies .
Conservative have to hold them accountable for it and they need to start taking them to court .

If it ever got to Trial, does anyone think a NYC Jury would find in her favor?

Really? LOL

The NYT knew the story was false and printed it maliciously. All the elements.

It seems to me that proving malice would be easy, but I am not a lawyer. There is absolutely no evidence that Republicans in general or Sarah Palin in particular had anything to do with motivating Jared Loughner to shoot Gabby Giffords. Loughner was insane, and he apparently had developed a personal dislike for Giffords.

Right wingers don't list the Communist Manifesto among their favorite books, or participate in American flag burning videos, as Loughner did. Loughner was no conservative.

Let's near the NYT attorneys defend the laughable notion that Sarah Palin's map motivated Loughner, when there is no evidence that he ever saw it, or that ANYONE would be motivated to shoot a politician because of X marks on a damn map.

That’s just it, Justice against the Bullies has nothing to do with it, which was my point.

The Bullies will win this one unless there is a change of Venue.
