    Good! CNN is awful.

    I wonder if their ratings are still in the tank. At one point, Yogi Bear had more viewers. lol

    As of last week, yes. Both CNN and MSNBC are neck and neck vying for last place in both ratings and ZERO fiscal profits.

    CNN told him Sandmann was a racist.

    Huh?

    "that nearly every time the Right makes a prediction concerning things and schemes of the political Left the Right of Center predictions very nearly always turn out to be correct."

    ^A "Stretch" (to say the very least).

    That said, even a STOPPED CLOCK is correct twice a day.

    Trump has settled many times as well for many things, I guess that can happen when it's so very obviously a slam dunk court case

    "I guess that can happen when it's so very obviously a slam dunk court case"

    so comparing it to all the cases Trump settled, Trump supporters must feel the same... right

    fact is, cnn reported the news as it appeared to be, latter new information surfaced, and they updated their reporting, they settled to make it go away

    their mistake was not saying 'allegedly'.... otherwise every criminal case ever reported would be a libel case waiting to happen if found not guilty

    we will never know if it was considered libel as the case was settled without going to trial, did CNN admit to libel?

    my guess is they gave him cash without admitting any guilt and in return he agreed to a gag order to not talk about it... just my guess

    Hey AJ, remember what you posted in this thread - Covington Catholic teen threatens to sue 54 news outlets, lawmakers and celebrities - ?


    Well, now we're letting you know.

    Just being helpful. I know how much you appreciate it when we follow up on your predictions. I mean, all of US here certainly enjoy it. :salute:

    where you been, a second video was later released and showed more details, there was a group of black racists that instigated all this, that was not in the first video that only showed what came later

    the fact is, this was a child, they jumped the gun, and they settled as it was a child and looks bad for them, even if they would win in the end, they just wanted this to go away

    both sides win, the kid gets some money and cnn ends this case

    we live in a world where we want real time news, that comes with risks, as in this case

    I'm sure they libeled him or CNN's lawyers would have told his to bugger off. Settling =s guilt in the court of public opinion.
