A federal judge has dismissed former President Donald Trump’s lawsuit against The New York Times, which accused the newspaper of defamation related to its reporting on his business practices. The judge ruled that Trump failed to demonstrate that the Times acted with actual malice or that its reporting was false and damaging enough to warrant legal action. The case centered on articles published by the Times that scrutinized Trump’s financial dealings and claimed he engaged in fraudulent activities. The court emphasized the importance of protecting journalistic freedom and noted that Trump’s allegations did not meet the legal standards required to proceed with a defamation claim against a media organization.
