Jury Trial for NY Times!

O’Keefe said there is “no amount of money” The New York Times can offer that would make Project Veritas settle this case. Veritas is headed to a trial-by-jury.
Here are some of the highlights from this latest update:
The lawsuit was filed last fall in response to a series of defamatory New York Times stories by political reporter, Maggie Astor, and media news reporter, Tiffany Hsu, calling Veritas’ Minnesota Ballot Harvesting videos “deceptive” and accusing Veritas of being part of “a coordinated disinformation effort” because Veritas shared an advance copy of the video with influencers and reporters.
In the answer filed last week, The New York Times admits it did the same thing: having received an advance copy of the blog post they reported on before the post was published.
New York Times repeatedly claimed ignorance on various issues related to the story: “Defendants lack knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief as to the truth of the allegations.”
Even after the New York Supreme Court rejected the New York Times’ claim that Astor’s and Hsu’s articles were merely “unverifiable expressions of opinion,” calling such a claim “deceptive” and “disinformation,” the Times doubled down on the “opinion” defense in the Answer, while admitting neither Astor nor Hsu are “opinion” writers.
The New York Times admits Minnesota’s ban on ballot harvesting was never suspended after Astor’s still-uncorrected article claimed it was.
The Times admits it never contacted any of Veritas’ named sources for comment – including a source the Times admits it used over 10 times.
