After it was announced that Nicholas Sandmann was suing the Washington Post for $250 million over defamation, people wonder what liberal media propaganda outfit or hack would be sued next. According to this report, it looks like little pig Bill Maher is next to get his ass served by Sandmann’s attorneys.

An attorney in the $250-million lawsuit filed by a Covington Catholic High School student and his family against The Washington Post told Fox News the colossal damages being sought are “appropriate in this circumstance” – and hinted liberal comedian Bill Maher could soon be served.
The comments from Todd McMurtry last week on “America’s Newsroom” come as law experts are calling the suit – filed on behalf of 16-year-old Nicholas Sandmann “by and through his parents” Ted and Julie Sandmann – everything from a “significant case” to one bound to be thrown out.
“Other commentators have sought to say that our damages are too high, but when you think about that those damages never go away and live on the Internet forever, I think they are appropriate in this circumstance,” McMurtry said.
Sandmann was at the center of a January firestorm when a viral video emerged showing a confrontation between Covington high schoolers wearing “Make America Great Again” hats and Native American activist Nathan Phillips at the March for Life in Washington, D.C. Footage that later emerged and showed a more complete record of the encounter revealed the standoff didn’t unfold as many had initially assumed.
