Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin arrives to Federal court, Thursday, Feb. 3, 2022, in New York. Palin is due back in the New York City courtroom more than a week after her libel trial against The New York Times was postponed because she tested positive for COVID-19.
NEW YORK - Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was back in a New York City courtroom Thursday, more than a week after the start of a trial in her libel lawsuit against The New York Times was postponed because she tested positive for COVID-19. The trial was to begin in the morning in federal court in Manhattan where Palin will be the star witness. She’s seeking unspecified damages based on claims that an editorial in the Times hurt her budding career as a political commentator.
Journalists surrounded Palin as she headed into the courthouse. Asked what she hoped to accomplish with her lawsuit, she said, “Justice for people who expect truth in the media.” A judge put off the trial last week to give an unvaccinated Palin time to get over any possible symptoms. Away from court, she caused a stir by being sighted dining out at an upscale Manhattan restaurant twice, both shortly before and after her positive test results were made public.
