Sarah Palin departs during her defamation lawsuit against the New York Times , at the United States Court house in the Manhattan borough of New York City in February, 2022.Sarah Palin and the New York Times have explored trying to settle the former Alaska governor and Republican U.S. vice presidential candidate’s closely watched defamation case against the newspaper, their lawyers said on Tuesday.
Palin, 60, sued the Times in 2017 over an editorial that incorrectly suggested she may have incited a 2011 mass shooting in Arizona where six people died and Democratic congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was seriously wounded. While neither side said talks are ongoing, the Times’ lawyer David Axelrod said a “non-trial disposition” of the case was possible, and “we may not need a trial date at all.”Rakoff suggested that a magistrate judge or mediator get involved. “If you’re seriously interested in settling, it could be settled in a matter of days,” he said.
Palin and media critics have viewed the case as a vehicle to overturn New York Times v. Sullivan, a landmark 1964 U.S. Supreme Court decision that made it much harder for public figures to prove defamation.
