According to Defendants, those sources are not just “some criticism from mainstream and/or left-wing media, but rather, they come from a variety of reputable sources, including Fox News, the Cato Institute, The Los Angeles Times, Newsweek, The Washington Post, and The Blaze. Far from being “some criticism,” these sources resoundingly describe Project Veritas as “partisan zealots,” with “a history of distorting facts or context,” “running cons,” “misleadingly editing video,” and being “known for its deceptively-edited videos” (See, e.g., Kurtzberg Aff. Exs. 18, 28, 33, 47, 49 NYSCEF#15).
While this is a lengthy media list, polling does not decide truth nor speak to evidence, and Defendants have not met their burden to prove that the reporting by Veritas in the Video is deceptive. Defendants’ papers do not conclusively establish that the subject causes of action do not exist, and the Court’s review of the complaint finds that Veritas adequately pleaded the five causes of action set forth in the complaint.
Sounds like the judge is able to see through the social media mob that NYTimes has constructed. Hopefully Veritas gains $$$$$ from this and the discovery.

That is one sexy arrangement of words, especially when coming from a court.
