A defamation case against the New York Times and one of its former journalists is moving to discovery after a judge rejected the paper’s bid to have the litigation dismissed.

Though most of the complaint was thrown out, businesswoman Ariadna Jacob provided sufficient evidence to survive the motion to dismiss regarding a statement that claimed she had leaked nude photographs, U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos ruled.

Taylor Lorenz penned an article in 2020 that, citing an internet influencer, alleged Jacob leaked naked photographs of the influencer.

“Right before we parted ways she leaked my nudes and sent them to business partners, people in my house and potential investors to slander my name, saying I was unprofessional,” the influencer, Devion Young, was quoted as saying.

“He said that she used nude photos of his to shame him,” Lorenz wrote.

In Jacob’s lawsuit, she said the allegation was false, and both the paper and Lorenz knew so.

Ooops. They weren't expecting this. Lorenz believes she should be able to dox and slander anyone she wants, and then go crying on social media when someone pushes back. Discovery should be interesting.
