Sarah Ping.

"Hopefully Sarah Palin nails The Slimes."

Maybe her lawyer will gut NYT like a catfish.

Out of court settlement will be $10+ millions.

It would also be great if after winning she writes a book about it.

It sounds like she can meetthe actual malice standard, which is hard to do because normally the media toes the line but doesn’t cross it like they apparently did here.

“Actual malice in United States law is a condition required to establish libel against public officials or public figures and is defined as “knowledge that the information was false” or that it was published “with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not.””

[SteveH]

whew!

hoping she gets that settlement of $10M+ from the NYT owners (carlos slim?— he should be able to afford $100M+, imho, and he needs to be taught a lesson that he won’t soon forget)

[joesbucks]

Should she be required to pay for the Times court costs if she loses?

It could happen. Rolling Stone got nailed on the University of Virginia rape hoax.

If the trial is held in Manhattan she doesn't have a prayer.Johnnie Cochrane knew his client was guilty and also knew that his only chance was for the trial to be held in da hood.He succeeded in getting it moved from where it should have been held.

sue for whatever the current valuation of that rag is plus $1.00

I’m obviously not a lawyer, but don’t you have to prove you’ve been damaged? I suspect the NYT can easily produce a thousand surveys of thousands of people who already believe Sarah Palin is a dangerous, hateful, idiot. This article hasn’t changed their beliefs one bit. Conversely, anyone who knows Sarah hasn’t had their beliefs changed either. So really... with which people has she been damaged?

The Times’ motto should be, “all the news that fits our agenda, we print.”
