Just because I don't have the genocidal hatred of all things American required to have considered voting for Trump longer than a third of a second doesn't mean you should hate me.
Wikipedia: RT has regularly been described as a major propaganda outlet for the Russian government and its foreign policy. Academics, fact-checkers, and news reporters (including some current and former RT reporters) have identified RT as a purveyor of disinformation and conspiracy theories. UK media regulator Ofcom has repeatedly found RT to have breached its rules on impartiality, including multiple instances in which RT broadcast "materially misleading" content.
LOL! He filed a nuisance lawsuit and got paid to go away. If there was any merit to his lawsuit he wouldn't have settled. His lawyers probably took most of whatever pittance CNN offered him to f*ck off.
In total, Nick Sandmann’s settlements from The Washington Post, CNN, and NBCUniversal could amount to $775 million but this amount could also be $100 million. As he is a student, the amounts of his settlements are sealed.
CNN did not pay him $225 million. They paid less than what it would cost them to go to trial. And Sandmann's lawyers (knowing they'd likely lose and get nothing) told him to accept.
...let's see... a legit case that goes to trial gets about 1/4 of the "ask"... settled would be around 1/8... putting the $100m in the example speculation above into "better perspective".
I assume your stupidity on this subject is intentional. Apparently you believe it's funny. Or maybe you are that stupid. fyi, Sandmann was suing CNN for 225 million. 775 million was the total of all the frivolous lawsuits Sandmann's lawyers filed.
If you think you can get free money by suing CNN, go ahead and file. I doubt you will be able to find a lawyer who will represent you though.
The handle of the bullwhip reeks of Robert Mapplethorpe's butthole.

ReplyDeleteSo the left is eating itself. Bon appetit.
ReplyDeleteNext on Father Charles Coughlin's Social Justice podcast....
ReplyDeleteNext time try the blue pill, Neo.
ReplyDeleteAll you globalists will then realize that you Lefty-Righties were in the same matrix all the time.

ReplyDeleteLet me know when the right isn't left anymore. I'll bring the chainsaw when you want to cut Medicare.
ReplyDelete'Til then, keep the channels open
ReplyDeleteI'm willing to give you Medicare back the minute you refund me the 43 years of wages paid in with interest.
ReplyDelete...and while your at it, I'll take the Social Security lump sum too. I figure $2 million ought to about cover my payments and interest.
ReplyDeleteKnock on FDR's and LBJ's tomb for that. I can send you a note that says "sucker" on nice stationery though.
ReplyDelete...or you can keep paying in 'til the Ponzi scheme collapses on top of you the day you are set to retire. :)
ReplyDeleteWe need to annex more countries and make them pay for it
ReplyDelete...or just force China to buy our Afghani opium...
ReplyDeleteThailand opium is better and you don't get the buzzkill Taliban open mike poetry though
ReplyDeleteRT isn't "independent media".

CNN never broadcast any materially misleading content? Who Knew?
ReplyDeleteI doubt it. Though maybe you can cite an example. But CNN isn't state controlled or a propaganda outlet for the US government.
ReplyDeleteCNN scores highest of all TV news sources in terms of being high quality (82%), accurate (78%), trustworthy (78%), and impartial (71%). :)
LOL!
ReplyDelete18% low quality, 22% inaccurate, 22% untrustworthy, and 29% biased
ReplyDeleteDove chocolate is awesome but their soap tastes like shit.

ReplyDeleteSo he got $75,000 for a few hours of paperwork?
ReplyDelete..or $225 million. CNN isn't saying.

ReplyDeleteWhat a nuisance!
CNN did not pay him $225 million. They paid less than what it would cost them to go to trial. And Sandmann's lawyers (knowing they'd likely lose and get nothing) told him to accept.
ReplyDeleteThere you go again, reading minds... yet assuming that Sandmann didn't have a legit. case.
ReplyDelete...let's see... a legit case that goes to trial gets about 1/4 of the "ask"...
ReplyDeletesettled would be around 1/8... putting the $100m in the example speculation above into "better perspective".
I'm sure CNN's bean counters sent out a memo asking news writers to not defame nuisances further.
ReplyDeleteThere you go again, reading minds... yet assuming that Sandmann didn't have a legit. case.
ReplyDeleteWhat is your proof that his lawyers thought they'd win? You don't have any. Your link concerns a case that went to trial. This one didn't.
CNN wanted to settle out of court? Why?
ReplyDeleteBecause it was cheaper than paying their lawyers to take the case to trial.
ReplyDeleteTheir lawyers would have lost them $775 million?
ReplyDeleteNo. You have to pay lawyers to take a case to trial. You settle if it costs less to do so than what the lawyer's fees would be.
ReplyDeleteThe lawyers would cost $775 million to win a case that allegedly had no merit? Why doesn't everyone sue CNN then? It's free money, right?
