A nightmare is unfolding for the New York Times that could well be devastating for the collapsing credibility and mindshare of the entire progressive media. In a court filing by defense counsel for the New York Times, the scope of the discovery being sought by Palin's legal team was revealed. If the court allows, the story that it could tell might well be all too revealing. Kaja Whitehouse of the New York Post spotted the public disclosure.
In a motion arguing that the case be dismissed, lawyers for the New York Times complained that Palin's legal team has served notice that she plans to subpoena "twenty-three non-party current and former Times reporters, editors and other employees - most of whom had nothing to do with the editorial at issue."
The subpoenas are part of Palin's effort to obtain "documents that might reveal, among other things, their 'negative feelings' toward her," The Times told the judge.
Palin's legal team also intends to ask the paper to produce "every internal communication it has had about her since 2011," they said.
As of an hour ago, the New York Times was clamming up, when qeried about the disclosure.

Your FR profile page is great as is your post here.
Thank You.
Sarah has had years to think about how to respond. She knows how to keep a secret, as do the legal consultants working with her. Bring it on, Mrs. Palin!
Especially the snowmobile articles! :)
Our Sarah does NOT bring a knife to a gunfight ;-)
Go get ‘em, dear Sarah.
Just Like You Onyx! ((HUGS!!)
no settlement Sarah!!! make sure everything is out in the public!!! BRING THEM DOWN!!!
(((And *YOU* KC)))
Better yet, turn it into an honest reporter of the news.
Of course, the libs would think that was right-wing extremism anyway.
LOL.
She’s waited a long time.
She’s been very patient!
And if they leave out just ONE document, get them on obstruction of justice. Missing documents - look for gaps, missing responses, etc.
Bankrupt them; better yet, take over the NYT and make it Conservative.
It can’t work as a conservative paper because the dead tree news delivery is no longer economically viable.
Conservatives don’t pour buckets of money into inefficient money wasters just to own a propaganda device.
It looks like Palin’s lawyers are driving toward a systematic, organizational conspiracy to libel and defame her.
She could end up owning the New York Times...except...
A judge somewhere will limit the scope of her discovery AND the suit/judgement under some convoluted interpretation of the First Amendment.
She has a high burden of proving malice. It seems to me the courts have to allow her a lot of leeway to be able to prove the malice.
The Supremes need to revisit the huge loophole they gave the media to lie about public figures with near impunity. Malice is an addition to the constitution that is pure judge made law.

“Well...thank YOU”, he said, blushing shyly.
A great time to lower the stupid “actual malice” standard BS
And make the media start having a sense of responsibility and ethics
“They should go back to 2008.”
Even farther. Go back to 2007. Remember the GOP Convention after she gave her speech — and the sh*t-storm the MSM began with 15 minutes after she finished? She scared the crap out of them, and they have been evil and brutal from that very night.
