He’s taking on a defendant with very deep pockets and absolutely no incentive to settle.

I think the defendant (Washington Post) isn't the only party who doesn't want to settle.

Seems to me that someone’s who paid by the people to perform a job is not actually required to perform the job - using that flawed rationale, I certainly don't see any reason for any court to hold a newspaper to any ‘journalistic standards.’

Hope they burn a whole lot of the Post's resources in the court case, but don't see it ever reaching a jury. (If it does, of course, Bezos is losing a billion dollars.)

The Washington Post knew that they were destroying someone with lies. They should take the full hit. The settlement should be a billion considering what they tried to get away with, but you gotta be reasonable.

Does Sandmann have any chance of winning? The short answer is “yes.” But it’s not a sure thing.

Why are people making this harder than it needs to be? Just follow the lesson of the frog and the scorpion.

Let Sandmann's lawyers play the process out at the normal legal pace, and keep an inventory of everything that WaPo does in the interim. Or, tell them that you're watching and documenting, and see if they can keep it together or crack under the pressure.

In either case, rely on WaPo to revert to form and smear the next conservative who comes into their crosshairs.

I hope Sandmann spares no vengeance on the Catholic Church and the diocese of those bishops who so quickly and carelessly demonized him. I say this as a devout Catholic.

I thought the Dems WANTED to take all of the riches money.

They always talk about the money made by the CEO of Walmart. He makes $20 million. 2 million people work for Walmart. If you take every penny of the CEO and give it to the workers you have given them each a raise of $20 for the year. Taking the money from all the billionaires will NOT pay for all the “free stuff” the dems want. (Ben Shapiro-youtube and learn).
