A judge strongly rebuffed SarahPalinUSA's bid for a new trial in her defamation case against the New York Times.
Palin's case was"wholly lacking in merit," U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff wrote in a ruling Tuesday, dashing Palin's hopes of reviving her case against the outlet after a jury determined in February she failed to prove her case.
"In actuality, none of these was erroneous, let alone a basis for granting Palin a new trial," he wrote.“We are pleased to see the court’s decision, and remain confident that the judge and jury decided the case fairly and correctly,” New York Times spokesman Charlie Stadtlander said in a statement after the ruling.
The former vice presidential candidate has stressed that the editorial harmed her reputation but struggled to overcome a precedent, established in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, which stipulates an"actual malice" standard for defamation suits against public figures. Lawyers for the outlet insisted the paper made an “honest mistake.”
