The New York Daily News reports:
A juror in E. Jean Carroll’s case against Donald Trump, who told the court his sole source of news was a prominent conservative commentator, was among those who found the former president liable for sexual abuse and defamation, according to court records unsealed Wednesday.
Juror No. 77, a Bronx native who works in security, remained on the panel despite an attempt by Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan to boot him when he admitted his only news source was Tim Pool [photo] — a far-right podcaster she told the court espoused “‘incel’ views that modern feminism has destroyed male-female relationships.”
“News basically I tend to avoid,” the juror said. “But every now and then (I listen to) podcasts, mainly independent (journalists) like Tim Pool or some other people like that.”
