...The nine plaintiffs said they suffered physical or emotional trauma at the rally, including four who were struck when a self-described neo-Nazi, James Fields, drove his car into a crowd of counter-protesters, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer.

Funny how the press coverage from a lesser event of 4 years ago is greater than the press coverage of an event from a few days ago where 5 were run over and dozens maimed.
The carnage in Wisconsin has got a lot of coverage, the day it happened and today. The coverage I’m seeing has spent a great deal of time covering what a dirt bag the driver was in past and for the death and suffering he has caused.
Have to be honest, didn’t even know or I had forgotten, there was a trial going on re: Charlottesville rally. I think the jury coming back with a decision is why we’re hearing about it now. The freaking press loves to cover controversial court cases.
