    What a low life, CNN should suspend him at the least.

    CNN is low life central. Another one of their creep reporters mocked a paralyzed Republican for standing for our national anthem last night.

    LOL - You don't get it.

    Where in the OP did anyone claim that Sandmann received a $250 million settlement from the Washington Post (or CNN)? The OP doesn't even mention the WaPo - it refers to CNN. :lol:

    Congrats. Your cries of "fake" are fake.

    Sorry ... this is ridiculous and an absurd claim!

    Yes, I am uncomfortable without question.
    Yes, some call my reviews of the US overall "anti-American"
    Yes, I like to mess with Trump's supporters ...

    But as a rule, and when it is not about personal opinion, I mostly always present facts ... and hardly anyone here has been able until now to refute them with other facts ... at best, could approach with arguments. Example ... because you're involved in the subject up?

    Germany = evil because it doesn't invest 2% of GDP in defense.
    Fact from me: There will only be a contractual obligation from 2024on - see NATO Agreement of Wales 2014!
    Reaction to it ... various arguments that Germany is rich enough to be able to do it now, so it's still evil.
    My reaction: This is BS, just because a certain insolent idiot by the name of Donald Trump and his supporters in the USA want it, doesn't mean we have to do it now!

    Result: Has the fact I mentioned, that it will only be mandatory from 2024 on and thus Trump's accusation is irrelevant, been refuted with other facts? No!

    But that too is something that of course makes me evil and anti-American ... and in your opinion I should go, eh?

    Has anyone said that there was "a 250 million settlement"?

    Probably just a few million and rising.

    You should go because your every assertion on this subject has been torn to shreds and you have been exposed as not having a clue as to what happened between the kid and the old guy beating a drum in his face.
    On the other hand you could apologize and just admit you were talking out your ass but I won’t hold my breath for that.

    There are still outstanding lawsuits against NBC, ABC News, CBS News, The New York Times, Rolling Stone and Gannett. The Enquirer is owned by Gannett. CNN and the WaPo have settled. MSM needs to pay big time!

    Lol ... nothing had torn to shreds here ... NOTHING!!!

    I just have no desire to waste my time further with dickheads who deny that Sandman provoked the native.
    You and others say no ... I say he has. And now?
    Shall we post 1,999 more posts to each other about, eh? What bullshit ...

    On the contrary ... in other topics I and others have shredded you and your claims with facts ... so if someone should go because of something like that, then you should have been gone a long time, as often as I and many others have completely destroyed your claims!

    But do I ask or say that you shall leave? Unlike you, I don't ... simply because in the end I uphold the principle of every argument that everyone can have and express their opinion and view, no matter how wrong or right it is.

    Maybe you should apply this principle once in a while ... eh?

    Cause he said so? Delusional people see weird things. You just have to leave them to their delusion. Take note. He said he likes to mess with people so he’s an admitted troll. Don’t feed it. Don’t waste your time with people who enjoy “messing with” people. It shows who they truly are.

    Because no lawyer in their right mind would settle for LESS money than if it was heard in Court!

    How do you not understand this??

    Ok, let me go through this slower.

    Sandmann's lawyer believes he has a slam dunk case, but settles for an undisclosed amount of money. If taking CNN & MSNBC to court would get him more money, why would he settle?

    Because CNN would draw it out for many years. Settlement is the name of the lawsuit game.

    Settlement amount are on a case by case basis. Its not one size fits all. If you want to get an idea of what a settlement might be, you have to consider the following.

    1. If the defendant (CNN/WP) refuses to answer the complaint (which if they do is public information) within 30 days they lose by default.
    2. If they do answer the complaint and provide false information it becomes a 57.105 hearing for falsifying information to the court and the trial goes on. Not to mention sanctions against the attorneys and defendant for knowingly falsifying information to the court. Then that information can be used in the trial. Which is also public information.
    3. If they can't answer the complaint without exposing themselves for liability, they have to settle the case before the 30 day deadline to keep it out of the court and out of the public domain.

    If this was a nuisance case with no evidence, the defendants would answer the complaint (public information) and file for dismissal. Even if they lose the dismissal, the plaintiff will be about 40K involved at this point. This is when a settlement is offered because it cheaper to settle than pay the attorneys to fight it.

    No high profile law firm will walk away from a contention case like Sandmans over a few hundred thousand when the defendant can't even answer the complaint because they have video evidence of their claim. I don't think he got 250 million, but I guarantee you they got at the very least, half. Not to mention the WP settled even faster than that.

    You can think what ever you want but I have been involved in cases like this and NOBODY settles prior to answering a complaint unless they know they are going to lose huge. NOBODY. EVER.

    I think you are right, I haven't heard that he paid anything. But he was the aggressor, I wonder if anyone on the left would be ok if a Trump supporter wearing a maga hat got right up in their face and banged a drum chanting Trump Trump Trump over and over an inch from their face, would that not be a form of assault?
