    As the aggressors in WHAT? I didn't see anyone being portrayed in any way, aggressive or otherwise. The kids came in and sat down, the old guy came over while drumming, the kid smiled awkwardly.

    What the hell happened that anyone had to pay money for? let alone be given a speech slot at the Convention?

    If I were him, I would have pulled up to the event in a Lamborghini Aventador with a wrap that said “thanks CNN!”

    CNN and several other outlets accused the students at Covington of shouting racist chants, while the people actually shouting vulgar racist things were the black isrealites or whatever they call themselves. You won't find this news footage anywhere because they have all scrubbed this footage over law suit worries.

    Substitute "Trump" for "CNN" and you might have something.

    Heck, they should bring him out on stage before every speaker and have him put on a MAGA hat.

    That would be almost as epic as Greg Gutfeld's idea of putting a gay bar next to the Ground Zero mosque. :lol:

    OMG, Really. You can't figure this out without a road map? Sandman has them dead to rights. He has the video showing they knowingly put the life of a minor, and the lives of his family, at risk for nothing more than a media rating.

    You don't settle those case for pennies on the dollar. You either pay up or get that video and story in front of the world along with a big jury win.

    CNN decided to pay up without a filing or a fight.
    MSNBC decided to pay up without a filing or a fight.

    What is it you don't get?

    Since a lot of people have responded to my posts here and have quoted me, I will not answer with a "quote orgy" but generally answer everyone as far as possible with this now ...

    You don't see any provolation in Sandmann's behavior? Sorry, ridiculous in my eyes! Just as the kid behaves grinning in front of the native, it's a provocation for me and borders on racism!
    The next time peaceful left-wing protesters do the same in front of the police, then I hope for you that you say the same and not, as usual, that it is a provocation!


    My house = my rules and my children have to abide by them - point!
    My children are brought up in this regard and that includes something that is called decency and respect ... and it's comic that exactly these values are so often championed by the righties in other contexts! Only when it turns against someone like Sandmann are these rules wrong, eh? Sorry, hypocritical and ridiculous!

    As long as they pay up, there's another day to sue Lockhart.

    Come on ... forget it. Look the long version of the video of what happend when and why and done. I have no desire to waste my time further with this topic and this snoothy jerk Sandmann anymore.

    You see it this way, I do it this way ... the points of view are therefore known, they are contradictory and the topic is finished.

    Thank you ... but it is no surrending by me ... It is only the realization that it is pointless to continue discussing here, because it is not more than an exchange of blows from a mutual point of view that brings nothing as a result ... just as little as a discussion whether a glass of water is half full or whether it is half empty.

    Just as you won't change your way of looking at the matter, neither will I change my way of looking at it.

    Fake.
    That snot nose filed a lawsuit of 250 million against the Washington Post, and it got dismissed.
    They than changed the lawsuit to than see 30 out of 33 claims got dismissed straight away.
    The lawsuit against CNN was settled behind closed doors. You don't know how much got paid.
    But it's obviously not anywhere near 250 million.

    Other than CNN and the WaPo's fake news, what is "fake"?

    CNN settles lawsuit with Nick Sandmann stemming from viral video controversy
    https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/07/media/cnn-settles-lawsuit-viral-video/index.html

    As for Sandmann's suit against the WaPo:

    Your first source says:
    "The local outlet said a settlement figure was not made public at a court hearing in Covington, Kentucky"

    That's what I wrote. Congrats.
    It remains to be fake if they had a 250 million settlement.
    It could have been 10 bucks and a box of ho ho's for all we know.

    You can see on wiki that WAPO had the 1st case dismissed in court. It was only a tiny part that they than had to reach a settlement on when they adjusted the lawsuit. It obviously was not a multi 100 million settlement at that point.

    So CNN is bad for saying what every Fox News host, and Donald Trump say on a daily basis.

    Your actually trying to hold CNN accountable for being "bad" in doing things that you actually support FIOx and DJT for doing ?

    C'mon

    You cry fake then repeat exactly what the article says.

    "settled a $250 million defamation lawsuit earlier this year."
