April 15 – The Friday before
the second round of Sarah
Palin versus New York Times, a
final pre-trial conference was
held by U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Jed S. Rakoff.
Inner City Press, which
covered the first trial, live
tweeted it, thread.
On April 15,
Inner City Press live tweeted
each side's opening argument,
and then the first two
witnesses: Elizabeth
Williamson who drafted the
editorial - focusing her
research on rhetoric and not
causation of the 2011
shooting, she said - and
Phoebe Lett who fact-checked
it, thread.
