I mean, there’s not much difference between NE and New York Times or Washington Post, so I guess I get it.

it's funny, because the enquirer would break stories, and media would refute or protect those in stories
biggest one was ted danson, enquirer had pics of him bald,etc. media and hollywood slandered the NE and brought them to their knees, to let it go.
he's bald as frick, and was on cheers

It doesn't really matter. You could put a sasquatch on the stand and the jury would believe him.

Who is “Judge Meghan?” Where did this happen? Who is the defendant? Etcetera.

The National Enquirer printed an interview with Cathy Smith in 1982. She was with John Belushi on March 5, 1982 when he overdosed. She admitted to injecting him with a combination of heroin and cocaine.
Cathy was paid $15,000.00 for the interview. The article resulted in a renewed investigation.
In 1983, she was indicted by a grand jury in Los Angeles County on one count of second-degree murder and 13 counts of administering a dangerous drug.
She ultimately served fifteen months in prison for involuntary manslaughter as a result of the published interview titled I killed John Belushi. Prior to the interview it was assumed that his overdose was a self inflicted accident.

Was the article itself evidence or did they get the reporter as a witness or use the article as a tip for further investigation?
It seems the article would be hearsay in the Trump case.

Are you sure? I think the Enquirer has a much cleaner track record when it comes to court cases.

The judge in question is judge Juan Merchan, and this relates to Trump‘s hush money case.
A part of the prosecution case is an assertion that Trump was orchestrating hit pieces against his Republican primary opponents, in the Enquirer. apparently, there is evidence that the articles and/or their headlines were even submitted to Trump for his approval before publication. (No idea whether this is actually true).
The articles are not being presented to prove the truth of the matters asserted in the articles, but rather to show simply that the articles were printed with Trump approval. It would not matter whether the publication in question was the Enquirer, the New York Post, or the Epoch Times.

Well when your business model was printing salacious content on supermarket checkout lines for last minute purchases, you know a thing or 2 about getting sued. It is all baked into the business model. Sell a bunch of papers and settle for less than the profit and apologize.
Meanwhile other news media will do the same and believe their excrement doesn’t stink, and freak out when they get sued, and make statements standing by their story and delaying the case until the plaintiff drops the case because the cost out weighs the reward or settlement unless it is a big player or conservative media like Fox News with deep pockets.
