James Bennet, the ousted New York Times editor at the center of a defamation lawsuit brought by Sarah Palin, described a frantic struggle while recounting how his “failure” produced a column that wrongly connected the ex-governor to a mass shooting.
, described a frantic struggle on Wednesday in recounting how his “failure” produced a column that wrongly connected the ex-governor to a mass shooting.in June 2020 amid internal backlash to another column, reiterated during his second day of testimony that he was responsible for a now-infamous 2017 piece entitled “America’s Lethal Politics.
Moments later on Wednesday, Bennet’s face grew red before he took off his glasses at the witness stand and wiped his face. Palin, sporting a hot pink jacket, stared straight at the former editor from her seat at a lawyer's table just a few feet away. Bennet was also seen shaking his head several times throughout his testimony.
The trial has stakes not just for Bennet’s reputation, but for the state of libel law in the United States in an era when right-wing politicians routinely accuse the media of bias and falsity. Bennet explained to the jurors that he was “very concerned” and “alarmed” by Douthat’s comments that the piece implied Loughner was influenced by Palin. In another email, which was also shown in court, Douthat stressed to the editorial page editor that Palin’s PAC map “had no link, none at all, to Gifford’s actual murder.”
