NYT says no libel, no retraction, no apology for Trump story

She said she later contacted Trump to inquire about a job with one of his businesses.

But the two women are different ages and very different in their appearance based on news coverage of the property dispute. She said after she rebuffed his attempts, Trump “gave me the run around” as she sought employment. On Wednesday, many reports revealed a long list of women who said the real estate mogul had sexually assaulted them.

– Donald Trump contends he doesn’t know and never even met some of the women accusing him of sexual assault. He also said of the accusations: “These people are sick, these people are sick”.

Trump told The Times that the allegations of the two women were false and his lawyer, Marc E. Kasowitz, demanded that the newspaper retract the story and issue an apology. Leeds said she had been escorted by a flight attendant from coach to first class, where she found herself seated next to Trump. “The only thing I said is hopefully, hopefully our patriotic movement will overcome this bad deception”. In a tweet and in a later speech on October 13, Trump called the Times story a total fabrication. “Grab ’em by the pussy”, Trump said in the tape.

The Trump campaign has charged that the women are working in collaboration with the media and Hillary Clinton’s campaign to derail his presidential bid.

“When you’re a star, they let you do it”.

To win a libel lawsuit about a public figure in the USA, the plaintiff – i.e. the person suing – would need to prove two things: that the statements were false, and that the publisher made the statements maliciously, Toronto-based libel lawyer Gil Zuvolny explained.

Earlier Friday, the Washington Post reported the contentions of another woman who says she was sexually assaulted by Trump.

The New York Times has responded to a cease and desist letter from Donald Trump’s lawyers saying that nothing they could write could affect the damage that he had already done to his own reputation – and as you can imagine, it makes pretty incredible reading.

“Oh, I was with Donald Trump in 1980″, Trump said, mimicking Leeds’ accusation. Conway hoped to encourage more women to come forward with allegations against Bill Clinton, building on the campaign’s decision to bring three of the former president’s accusers to the second presidential debate.

During a conversation with Billy Bush, a co-host of “Access Hollywood” at the time, Trump made references to kissing and groping women who were not his wife. “We stand by the story, which falls clearly into the realm of public service journalism, ” Eileen Murphy, a spokeswoman for The Times, said in a statement. At today’s rally, Trump said, “One came out recently said I was sitting alone in a club”.

“So, while I’d like to think things are better for women, I’m not so sure they are”, Leeds said.
