Donald Trump threatens to sue New York Times over sexual harassment report

by Dylan Byers and Brian Stelter
CNN Money
October 13, 2016: 1:23 AM ET

Lawyers for Donald Trump have called on The New York Times to retract a bombshell report in which two women claimed that Trump had touched them inappropriately.

The Times story featured two women, Jessica Leeds and Rachel Crooks, who said that Trump made inappropriate physical advances on them despite the fact that they had never met before. CNN has not been able to independently confirm their accounts.

"Your article is reckless, defamatory and constitutes libel per se," Marc E. Kasowitz, a lawyer representing Trump, wrote in an open letter to Times executive editor Dean Baquet. "We hereby demand that you immediately cease any further publication of this article, remove it from your website and issue a full and immediate retraction and apology. Failure to do so will leave my client with no option but to purse all available actions and remedies."

The letter lacks any substantive facts to cast doubt on the Times story, and is not a lawsuit.

High-ranking sources within the Trump campaign had told CNNMoney that they were "drafting" lawsuits against both the Times and The Palm Beach Post, which published a separate story in which another women claimed Trump had groped her.

Winning a lawsuit concerning libel against a major media outlet by a presidential candidate is extremely hard to say the least. However, Trump is on the air now making a very convincing populist argument.

There may be a valid argument that the NYT published in reckless disregard for the truth.

Two Women Say Donald Trump Touched Them Inappropriately

By Megan Twohey and Michael Barbaro
New York Times
Oct. 12, 2016

More than three decades ago, when she was a traveling businesswoman at a paper company, Ms. Leeds said, she sat beside Mr. Trump in the first-class cabin of a flight to New York. They had never met before.

About 45 minutes after takeoff, she recalled, Mr. Trump lifted the armrest and began to touch her.

According to Ms. Leeds, Mr. Trump grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt.

“He was like an octopus,” she said. “His hands were everywhere.”

Has the armrest (divider) in first class ever been able to be lifted?

Donald Trump has flown in one of his own private jets for a very long time.

She gave up and sat down, this time nearer the small table that supported the telephone. "Maybe Bill'll call," she said to Sheila's glance. Sheila nibbled on a cuticle.

"After last night, I thought maybe you'd be through with him."

"I know what you mean. My God, he was like an octopus. Hands all over the place." She gestured, raising her arms upwards in defense. "The thing is, after a while, you get tired of fighting with him, you know, and after all I didn't really do anything Friday and Saturday so I kind of owed it to him. You know what I mean." She started to scratch. Sheila was giggling with her hand over her mouth. "I'll tell you, I felt the same way, and even after a while," here she bent forward in a whisper, "I wanted to!" Now she was laughing very loudly.

The Coronation Street actor Bill Roache had wandering hands "like an octopus", according to a woman who alleges he groped her in his dressing room when she was a teenager.

[...]

"He sort of came over to me and pressed himself against me. He touched both breasts over the clothing … He was like an octopus. Hands everywhere."

Coronation Street is a British soap opera that has been running since 1960. It runs in prime time.

Arrest, trial and acquittal

On 1 May 2013, Roache was arrested on suspicion of having raped a 15-year-old girl in 1967, an allegation he strenuously denied. The Crown Prosecution Service subsequently announced that he was to be charged with two counts of rape.[30] There was a preliminary hearing in a Magistrates' court on 14 May 2013 and a Crown Court hearing took place on 10 June 2013. On 6 June 2013, Roache was charged with a further five counts of indecent assault against girls aged between 12 and 16.

Roache appeared at Preston Crown Court on 2 September and pleaded not guilty to all charges. The full trial started on 14 January 2014 at Preston Crown Court, before Mr Justice Holroyde. During the trial, one charge was dismissed outright by the judge citing a lack of evidence and significant flaws emerged in two witnesses' accounts in relation to the other charges. On 6 February 2014, Roache was found not guilty on all charges. Following his acquittal, Roache gave a brief statement saying that there had been "no winners" and expressing his intent to "get back to work".

During the investigation and trial, Roache's character Ken Barlow was written out of Coronation Street. His on-screen wife Deirdre revealed that he was visiting his sick grandson in Canada. An image of Ken Barlow was removed from the Madame Tussauds waxwork exhibition in Blackpool due to fears it might be vandalised. The waxwork was returned to the exhibition in February 2014 following Roache's acquittal.

Roache resumed filming on Coronation Street in June 2014, and returned to the screen on 4 August of that year.

If Trump were ever to win this lawsuit, it would happen years after the election. This is about demonstrating how corrupt the media is.

True dat. For now, it may take some wind out of the Times' sails. The Times may well have been punked.
