NEW YORK (AP) - An appeals court has revived a defamation lawsuit Sarah Palin brought against The New York Times.

The onetime Republican vice presidential nominee sued over the editorial published after a gunman opened fire on Republican lawmakers in Virginia, wounding U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise.

Burden of proof high to prove actual malice. Come on, it was the liberal NYT writing about a Republican. A high profile female Republican. Should be a slam dunk. The NYT had no evidence, just their hate to go on.
