It came out over the weekend that Nicholas SAndman’s attorney planned to sue CNN. Everyone assumed that it would be for about $250 like against the Washington Post. Turns out the lawsuit against CNN is going to be more costly than that of fake news Washington Post. Nicholas Sandmann’s attorneys filed a whopping $275 million lawsuit against fake news kings CNN. Time to pay up Zucker Sucker.
Nicholas Sandmann suing CNN for $275 MILLION! |
---|
As first promised during an interview with conservative talk radio show host Mark Levin on Sunday’s Life, Liberty & Levin, attorneys for Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann filed a lawsuit late Tuesday against CNN seeking $275 million in damages from the “Facts Last” “mob” that “falsely attack[ed], vilifi[ed], and bull[ied] him” in order to advance their “anti-Trump agenda.”
In an incredibly-detailed 58-page suit, the firms of L. Lin Wood and Hemmer DeFrank Wessels alleged CNN aired and published “at least four (4) defamatory television broadcasts and nine (9) defamatory online articles” in addition to a deleted tweet by CNN political commentator Bakari Sellers that called for Sandmann to be assaulted.
Of course, this CNN suit came almost a month after the firms filed a $250 million suit against The Washington Post.
The lawsuit didn’t waste time in starting to build a case against CNN, waiting until only point eight of the introduction to point out CNN’s “Facts First” campaign that launched only after it was “suffering from a public perception that it had deteriorated from being recognized as a source of hard news to being considered a mere echo chamber for manipulated and politicized commentary and ‘fake news.’” Yikes!
After highlighting CNN’s animosity toward President Trump, the suit stated that, in a one week span, “CNN brought down the full force of its corporate power, influence, and wealth on Nicholas by falsely attacking, vilifying, and bullying him despite the fact that he was a minor child” that was “[c]ontrary to its ‘Facts First’ public relations ploy.”
