When CNN "fake news" meets $275 million court suit

“Contrary to its ‘Facts First’ public relations ploy, CNN ignored the facts and put its anti-Trump agenda first in waging a 7-day media campaign of false, vicious attacks against Nicholas, a young boy who was guilty of little more than wearing a souvenir Make America Great Again cap,” said the 58-page lawsuit filed in March.

BURN baby BURN.

Ohhhh, if the libs who hate the rich, as they put their noses in someone else’s business, find out the boatload amount of millions this little feller got, we will be entertained Big time with all of the reasons they will spew out about why this guy should not have that money. I promise you it is huge, and there are other entities that will also have to pay him money

Wow, 100 million for being an a--hole.

Who knew being a dick would be so profitable?

Oh, yeah, the alt-right.

We can expect more of this with Trump's flunkies on the bench.

I'll wager legal fees and less than $50 grand. There's no way CNN would settle for such an absurd amount as $100M.

Are they not legally bound to disclose these sorts of deals?

How does the country know what sort of justice is being done, when these cases can be public, but the outcome isn’t?

It was a settlement, not a legal verdict. So the student did not "win" the suit.

My time-worn answer. It is no one’s business. Why do libs think that a person or an entity is ‘connected’ to others, or has a duty to disclose private matters. Absolutely unbelievable Shav. I will get this into my treatise on the Lib Doctrine. Unbelievable.

Any damage a person can do to CNN is a big WIN
