Attorneys for Nicholas Sandmann filed a $275 million lawsuit Wednesday against NBCUniversal over its coverage of the Kentucky teen, accusing the network of creating a “false narrative” driven by its “anti-Trump agenda.”
The lawsuit, the third filed by the Sandmann attorneys against major media outlets, alleged that NBC targeted the Covington Catholic High School student in its reporting on his Jan. 18 encounter with Native American activist Nathan Phillips at the Lincoln Memorial.
“NBCUniversal created a false narrative by portraying the ‘confrontation’ as a ‘hate crime’ committed by Nicholas,” said the complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.

The kid’s going to be Billionaire....
$50M......................
Should’ve been a billion!! 275 thousand is chum change to them!!!
NBC paid Richard Jewell $500k and never retracted their story and to this day still maintains he was the Olympic Park Bomber................
Sandman please do not forget CNN , Kirsten Powers, and Bill Maher. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
You’ll be pleased to know that the decision to sue CNN (for $250M, if memory serves) was made and announced long ago.
See my tagline. Every one of my posts is cheering for this kid.
Suh-WEET!!
Why isn’t he suing the fake Vietnam vet / fake indian that was invading his personal space and intimidating him with his war chant and banging his drum inches within his face?
Should have asked for more and settle for 250m.
I hope he gets paid a LOT. He is now famous in a very negative way. What kind of college life can he expect? He will get lots of negative attention from the campus Leftists.
What companies will want to be his future employer, and risk harassment over “hiring a racist”?
He will.
There's no way they can fight this in a civil court. They'll have to settle. Their slanderous shennanigans are plain for all to see in the video tapes that they themselves slantedly doctored. It's like filming yourself committing a crime then being dumb enough to hand it over to law enforcement.
No wampum.
No ROI.
What could he get, the drum?
Good point. The fake vet is an idiot and would have been a nobody if it weren’t for the media. The media are powerful sinister and evil and should know better.
Can’t get blood out of a turnip??
Don’t forget the lawyers will take 45% of that, I’ll bet!
Good.
