Third lawsuit against media for false attacks
DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) - Nick Sandmann's legal team is suing NBCUniversal for $275 million, bringing the number of lawsuits filed on behalf of the aggrieved Covington Catholic High School student to three. Prior to suing NBC, Sandmann's attorneys also sought financial restitution from cable news network CNN for $275 million and The Washington Post newspaper for $250 million.
The suit names NBCUniversal and its networks and platforms — including NBC, MSNBC and the NBC owned-and-operated stations — as defendants. The suit also alleges attacks on Sandmann were posted online on corresponding websites and Twitter accounts for NBC News, MSNBC, the 11 NBC owned-and-operated stations, the "Today" show and "NBC Nightly News" with Lester Holt.
"Between January 19 and January 27, 2019, NBCUniversal unleashed its vast corporate wealth, influence, and power against Nicholas to falsely attack him despite the fact that at the time, he was a 16-year-old high school student," reads the complaint.

Wooo Haaa! You go boy!!! Make those Ba$tards pay!!!
I don’t know how many media outlets this kid is suing but I hope he becomes a billionaire from it all.
Maybe the President should join in the lawsuit and make it class action..Heh heh.
All of them... (eventually)
NBC and the rest of the False News Networks are accustomed to people caving in under their continued assaults and apologizing for their made-up crimes.
They fully expected Nicholas to make a public apology for attacking the nice Native American man and the cheerful Black Hebrew Israelites for his being a Catholic White Teenager in their presence.
I hope he gets every penny and those responsible fired and those network news outlets disbanded.
I’d love to see Trump pass a tax on advertising.
TV, press, radio, internet, movies (product placement) giants would need to start paying a 10% surcharge on their income.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer group of people.
Hey Nick...psst....there’s more money to be had over at HBO and NBC and don’t forget Kirsten Powers. We’re pulling for you. The world is your oyster.
I want to sue them for denying me the correct information so I could make a good decision on my vote.
They lied so much...and many believed...shouldn’t there be a penalty?
Mr. Sandmann, bring us a dream. Drain every penny from these soulless evil pigs...
I hope Nick and his Lawyers saw this when I wrote it
back when this was all going down.
(They may have... They still seem to be on mission.)

Those kids could have chosen to beat that insufferable Indian.
And if he had hit the kid with the drum I would be jumping right in, right then.
He did not.
So they did not.
What they chose to do instead was BTFO (Beat) the Chiefs of the Deep State that sent all those various asses there in the first place. They chose Lawfulness and Goodness as their tools for the job. They chanted their cheers.
They DID NOT let themselves get drawn into a fight with any of those Deep State Pawns, including that obnoxious insufferable anti American Indian.
They were bravely out there and engaged in the marketplace of face to face free speech, where such confrontations happen.
They had (adult?) Derpies all up in their face and they were armed only with lawfulness and goodness and MAGA hats.
They were not going to change the minds of any of the brownshirts there.
They DID, however, get the attention of a whole lot of folks who are just starting to pay attention. Minds that are much more likely to be positively swayed.
These children seem an almost Heaven sent example for an approach to use for Deep State Demolition when one is not actually forced into physical self defense.
Everyone can see it was an epic beatdown of a big lie in the end.
What some may not realize is that it was an epic beatdown of a far bigger lie instead.
THE Big Lie.
Don’t let our true enemy get away with making people think that this was just a victory over some obnoxious Derp anti American Indian that now looks like some obnoxious Derp Anti American Indian..
It was so much more.
Sure, it exposed all the lies about the MAGA kids as lies.
But while the largest hate group in the US may be liberal democrats, the most powerful hate group on the planet is the one that again and again sets up these situations and distractions to keep us fighting anyone but them.
This is the group who’s lie those MAGA kids beat down.
While the brownshirts are happy to be brownshirts, and are NOT innocent. They are just brownshirts.
Their job and joy is to get US to become violent and lawless like them. So far they are failing utterly at this.
Their job is also to make normal people afraid to walk outside anywhere they might be confronted by these types, or say what they think. (Or dare to wear a MAGA hat in public.) In this, they have greater success.
Haters are gonna hate.
I don’t want that Indian dead or harmed, or to even have his drum taken away. He may be an enemy, but he’s not my target.
He’s not a hill I’m going to chance giving the deep state ammo over. The kid handled it exactly right.
Same goes for the useful idiot Black Israelites.
The Deep State is setting up situations over and over and over again and they hope they can collect ammo to paint US as a hate group and eventually to drive our society towards the criminalization of Free Speech and thought. (and MAGA hats and guns.)
THIS is what was REALLY going on there.
This is what this victory was over.
So. Actual Deep State Power People are the enemy that I would rather fight and vanquish instead of letting the deep state distract me and pit me against their tiny groups of antifa, Anti-American Indians, degenerates in glowing new flavors, or other colorful SJW types over and over and over again, hoping *I* do or say something they can use for their evil ends.
All’s fair in love and war, but let’s not lose sight of who the real enemy generals are, and how they love to use hate. Our hate, the left’s hate. All hate. Used to keep the focus off those who’s interests it serves to keep the focus off them.
Those kids shamed powers and principalities with their example.
Not just some obnoxious anti-American Indian.
How much is that in total?
He had better win.
JoMa
They will settle out of court it is cheaper to do so!!!
Enemedia delenda est.
Hollywood BS Tax sounds appropriate.
Ripe for a Hey Mr. Sandmann parody.
Right now he’s suing CNN, The Washington Post, and NBC for a grand total of something around $1,000,000,000
I agree with your sentiments.
But I would settle for a simple headline above the fold, apologizing directly to Sandmann and the Covington Catholics
I'll even be generous.
Instead of $275 million, we'll settle for 100 million and call it a day.
Conditional on the abject apology.
