Sandmann lawyers file $275 million defamation lawsuit against CNN
The law firm for Nicholas Sandmann, the Kentucky teenager who was slandered by numerous leftist mainstream news organizations in January, has now filed a $275 million defamation lawsuit against CNN.
You can read or download the full suit here [pdf]
This suit is on top of a $250 million lawsuit the firm has also filed against the Washington Post.
Right now it appears to me that both the Washington Post and CNN are going to lose big in these suits. Following the filing of the lawsuit against it the Post published “an editor’s note” concerning its coverage of the incident, but never admitted to or apologized for its false reporting. Instead, it merely noted the numerous errors and false claims in the original reporting. If anything, that correction makes it more liable, as it suggests the false coverage was acceptable to it, at the time.
Now available in hardback and paperback as well as ebook!
From the press release: In this ground-breaking new history of early America, historian Robert Zimmerman not only exposes the lie behind The New York Times 1619 Project that falsely claims slavery is central to the history of the United States, he also provides profound lessons about the nature of human societies, lessons important for Americans today as well as for all future settlers on Mars and elsewhere in space.
Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space, is a riveting page-turning story that documents how slavery slowly became pervasive in the southern British colonies of North America, colonies founded by a people and culture that not only did not allow slavery but in every way were hostile to the practice.
Conscious Choice does more however. In telling the tragic history of the Virginia colony and the rise of slavery there, Zimmerman lays out the proper path for creating healthy societies in places like the Moon and Mars.
“Zimmerman’s ground-breaking history provides every future generation the basic framework for establishing new societies on other worlds. We would be wise to heed what he says.” —Robert Zubrin, founder of founder of the Mars Society.

Go Nick ! Of course, this will be settled out of court and he’ll get less than $0.5B, but it will be plenty to live the life of a gentleman of leisure. He MIGHT even have enough to buy a Tesla ! (But probably not THE GREATEST CAR EVER MADE,
the 1962-1964 Ferrari 250 GTO – the only car to win three consecutive World Manufacturers’ Championships)
$275M isn’t nearly enough. As of 2014 CNN was valued at $10B. Should be taking a cue from Eduardo Saverin in ‘The Social Network’: “I’m coming for the whole d**n thing!”.

Nancy Pelosi is introducing legislation to protect the media. Stay tuned.
“Courts around the country have long recognized that, under the First Amendment, journalists must be afforded the right to report on live controversies without fear of defamation liability,” Reporters Committee attorneys stated in the brief.”
Also,
If you disagree with the government or a popular subject, this disagreement can be labeled “hate speech” and you will be banned. Conservatives are now bringing up the Liberals “equal time” which is scary because google and Facebook have already established their dominance in banning subjects and people without repercussions. Federal law establishing equal time will just play in their favor because it’s already the established Norm.
