Trump lawsuit against Pulitzer board can continue, Florida appeals court says
- A Florida Court of Appeals allowed President Donald Trump's defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Board to continue, ruling he demonstrated actual malice and bias against him in the board's statements and actions regarding the 2018 awards.
- The lawsuit stems from the Pulitzer Board awarding The New York Times and The Washington Post for reporting on alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, which Trump claims is defamatory.
- Judge Ed Artau affirmed that the trial court has jurisdiction over the out-of-state defendants, stating that the board's statements were actionable as they implied factual claims about Trump colluding with Russia.
- The Pulitzer Prize Board responded that the lawsuit represents an attempt to intimidate the press and reaffirmed its commitment to defending journalism against such claims.
