A judge says he will dismiss a libel lawsuit that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin filed against The New York Times.
The judge made the decision while a jury continued to deliberate the Republican’s claim that the newspaper maliciously damaged her reputation with an editorial linking her campaign rhetoric to a mass shooting.

Gabby Giffords. But the paper said the mistake wasn’t intentional.
