This latest ruling in favor of the New York Times is a significant victory for the publication and reaffirms the principle that publishers are not liable for honest mistakes. The case has been ongoing for years, with multiple twists and turns, but it appears that this may finally be the end of the legal battle between Sarah Palin and the New York Times. It will be interesting to see if Palin decides to appeal the decision or if she will finally put this matter to rest.
