CNN settles lawsuit with Nick Sandmann

Hopefully, main stream media won’t be so quick to slander and smear someone at least until they gather AND report all of the facts. This kid was attacked for wearing a MAGA hat and smiling at a psycho elder banging a drum inches from the kid’s face and the press thought that was extremely “disrespectful”.

The only people disrespectful was the media, and it's about time they paid for it. I give the kid a lot of credit. If that happened to me when I was his age, it probably would have turned out differently.

They probably settled for a hundred grand or so of which CNN paid ZERO because it was most likely covered by insurance.;)

No lawyer would have allowed him to settle for anything near that amount. If CNN settled, it's because it would cost them more to fight it, and a likelihood they'd lose the case. Nick got some big bucks out of this deal I'm sure.

ROFL! Not likely, moron. It was almost certainly well North of $10 million.
LOL..Think again numbnuts. LIn Wood got his ass whupped by Elon Musk and probably did not want to go to trial.
Lin Wood has won big judgements in many such cases, dumbass. Losing one case doesn't prove jack shit. CNN settled because it was obvious which way the case was going.

L. Lin Wood - Wikipedia

On November 30, 2012, CNN covered the DaVita Inc. Medicare and Medicaid fraud lawsuit pending in which Wood was a lead attorney for the plaintiffs.[19] The lawsuit was settled in 2015 for nearly $500 million plus attorneys fees.[20]

CNN Settles Covington Catholic Lawsuit Out Of Court For Undisclosed Amount

The amount of the settlement was not made public during the hearing in Covington.

Sandmann attorneys Todd McMurtry and Lin Wood filed a $275 million lawsuit against CNN last March in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.


“CNN was probably more vicious in its direct attacks on Nicholas than The Washington Post. .............


lol

They probably have more money and viewers as well. I know Nick didn't get the 275 million, but I hope they settled for half of that. He'd be set for life. Never have to go college if he doesn't want to. Just buy a mansion or penthouse on the ocean, and entertain different women all the time. What a life to have that kind of money at his age.
Not even close to half. I was being facetious when I wrote $100,000, the fairer estimate is about $5,000,000.00. Now by the time you take out Lin Wood's fees, costs and expenses, the kid probably owes Wood money. As I wrote before Lin Wood lost big time against Elon Musk which was a far easier case IMO. Wood wanted to settle this case as well.

CNN settles lawsuit with Nick Sandmann

COVINGTON, Ky. (FOX19) - CNN agreed Tuesday to settle a lawsuit with Covington Catholic student Nick Sandmann.

The amount of the settlement was not made public during a hearing at the federal courthouse in Covington, Kentucky.

Sandmann’s lawsuit sought $800 million from CNN, the Washington Post and NBC Universal.

Trial dates are still not set for Sandmann’s lawsuit against NBC Universal and the Washington Post.

The Washington Post suit sought $250 million. A federal judge let a portion of the suit go forward after The Post filed a motion to dismiss it.

Sandmann’s attorney, Lin Wood, said, “This case will be tried not one minute earlier or later than when it is ready.”

The lawsuits were filed following an incident in Jan. 2019 in Washington, D.C. involving Covington Catholic High School students. Videos of that incident garnered national attention.

The initial video showed the self-identified Sandmann, now a senior at CovCath, and Nathan Phillips, an indigenous man who was participating in the Indigenous Peoples March. Sandmann and his classmates were in D.C. for the March For Life.

When he stood there with that smile on his face, little did he know he was being setup to be wealthy the rest of his life. Talk about falling out of a seat of an airplane and landing in another one. Good for him.

But he didnt lose this one. He got a settlement. Even though the other was "far easier"?

He likely worked for a percentage of whatever Sandmann won, so he doesn't owe him anything. Furthermore the lawyer knows that the more Sandmann gets, the more he gets.

Yes. I smile all the time now, just in case.

I know your angry and I am bursting your bubble. but these cases are hard to prove and win. Elon Musk probably should have lost but he won. His case was far more egregious than this one. Wood was smart to settle.

Wood stated when the case was filed that it was on a contingency fee basis. I'll bet he got closer to $30 million than $5 million

Angry? Are you stoned? You claimed he would get nothing. YOU were epically wrong.

You can piss off now.....you have run out of amusement value.

You mean CNN was smart to settle. This case was easy to prove. The evidence was on video, moron.

I know you just can't stand the thought that your propaganda organ took it in the shorts.

True, but those attorneys also take every nickel and dime out for costs. There are multiple law suits going on as well as appeals. Whether Lin Wood took these cases on contingency is unknown as well.

Wow, he is set for life, not a bad haul in a lawsuit. Never sued anyone, but I can see its paying off whether you deserve it or not.
