One question I have is did Bennet work at the NYT when Giffords was shot? If so, as a NYT editor I would expect him to have read about no link.

This guy is a managing editor with a long pedigree as a Journolister and he is able to understand what he wrote and published?

Is he going to get Comey to agree that he had no intent?

New York Times editorial page editor James Bennet testified Wednesday in an open hearing that he did not mean to imply a "causal link" between a political action committee tied to former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and a 2011 attack on a then-congresswoman and others.

When I first saw it, I thought that was exactly what he implied.

Hoping that Sarah knocks these media maggots for a HUGE settlement. They deserve so much downside in return for the damage they have done.....

Bennett is just another dim witted Leftard hack. I hope the NY Times gets crushed in this lawsuit, although the legal odds may be in their favor simply due to liberal bias. Oh, and the chances that Bennett did not know that Palin endorsed his brother’s opponent? 1 in a bazillion.

Sarah, take the damages in the form of NYT VOTING CLASS STOCK. Take over control of the NYT. Wouldn’t that be hilarious seeing the wailing and knashing of Establishment teeth.

To Sarah's List.

Yes, this story is from Aug 16th.

They are using the Comey Defense quite a bit in this trial.

The lies flow so easily from the mouths and keyboards of New York Times staff members.

Even when they're testifying under oath.

Demonstrating expert-level proficiency in telling baldfaced lies must be a condition of employment at the Times.

"What I wasn't trying to say was that there was a direct causal link between this map and the shooting"
That's precisely what you were trying to say.

This should sink the NYT:

“Bennet said that he became extremely concerned about the content of the editorial late on the night of June 14, after seeing criticisms of it on social media, and spent the early hours of June 15 frantically attempting to have his team determine whether a connection between the Palin PAC and the shooter’s motives actually existed.”

So, he admits publishing something with no idea whether it was true, then trying in vain to find something to support the NYT’s allegations. That would seem to be a textbook example of reckless disregard of the truth that would make a newspaper liable to a public figure for defamation.
