“The settlement agreement had better include a requirement for CNN to publicly apologize and admit what they did.”

The only way CNN would agree to that is if their on-air announcer reads the apology at 3:15AM on a Monday morning.

"He should be worth north of $50 million by the time it’s all over and good for him on that."

50? considering how many media orgs he is suing print & electronic? I think he's going to have enough to lauch his own major news organization...

Foghorn Leghorn says: “Listen son, its always about the money. Nick Sandmann won a nice chunk. That will hurt hem in the long run more than any meaningless public apology. Their lawyers thought they would lose if they went to trial. Its a big win for the kid.”

We don’t know until we see how much

It ain’t $275M

No, but it’s probably at least a couple of million. Real money to a teenager.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

don’t forget: real money to the attorney, too

Even a small settlement would sink CNN if not for the fact that the non news portion of the corporation has some profits.

Money awarded in court is always free of taxes. It is a matter of fact that the award brings a person back to “whole”.... the position they were before they were damaged.... and it is not taxable income.

Yep! And another precedent for our President.

Sue sue sue sue sue the fake jews people. The persons, the perps.

I have two maga hats, a generic Trump hat and just got a new Keep America Great hat that I bought from the Trump campaign.

I wear them frequently.

The settlement is the apology. That’s how civil lawsuits work.

That’s not true. Certain elements of a court award ARE taxable.
