Sarah Palin's Defamation Lawsuit Against The New York Times Has Begun

Palin is suing the Times and its former editorial page editor James Bennet over a June 2017 editorial titled "America’s Lethal Politics."

Former Vice-Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin is facing off against the New York Times. 

After a brief delay when Palin tested positive for COVID, a trial for her defamation lawsuit against the newspaper began Thursday morning. 

"What am I trying to accomplish? Justice for people who expect truth in the media," Palin said.
