New York Times is asking the court to dismiss Justin Baldoni's defamation lawsuit over its bombshell Blake Lively and 'It Ends With Us' report.

The New York Times has requested a New York court to dismiss a defamation lawsuit filed by actor Justin Baldoni, who accused the newspaper of falsely reporting that he was involved in a "toxic" work environment on the set of his directorial debut, "Clouds." The Times' motion to dismiss argues that their reporting was accurate, based on multiple sources, and that Baldoni's lawsuit fails to meet the legal standards for defamation, particularly the requirement to prove "actual malice." The article in question detailed allegations of a stressful and disorganized set, which Baldoni contends misrepresents his leadership and the overall atmosphere during the production. The Times stands by its journalism, emphasizing the importance of press freedom and the public's right to know about workplace conditions in the entertainment industry.
