It’s kind of amazing that reporters aren’t digging into exactly how much the WP and CNN paid to make the Covington Catholic Nicholas Sandmann’s suit go away. The fact they settled is tacit acknowledgement that their coverage was biased and wrong.

And there’s more suits to come - I hope he takes the college he attended to the cleaners as well the way they jumped on the media bandwagon before all the evidence was in.

I wonder if the remaining six Pravda outlets yet to be decided will settle and publicize their payouts?

The Ministry of Propaganda is a bit embarrassed that they were held accountable for a smear job. That happens very rarely.

“””It’s kind of amazing that reporters aren’t digging into””””

....ANYTHING.

I’m not sure where he has been but the media has no interest in any story unless it is a TRUMP SUCKS story.

A moot point, since I seriously doubt ANY money will ever be actually PAID.

They'll stiff the kid, as a matter of principle.

Not amazing at all. Reporters do everything they can, including lying, to destroy good people in this country. They will do everything in their power to protect other sellers of fake news. They have no principles.

“They’ll stiff the kid, as a matter of principle.”

They can’t do that. The dismissal (with prejudice) of the lawsuit is contingent on their paying the agreed-upon settlement by a certain date, also agreed upon.

Not amazing at all. Without a doubt, those settlement agreements provide for non-disclosure. Secondly, if the media isn’t going to report that Sandman won his case(s).
Why should anyone expect that they would even try to delve into details?

Sandmann’s lawyer should have forced them to print and broadcast a public apology as well.

The what?

IF one of them ever did report it they’d open the segment going on about how racist the kid is.

Oh he got paid probably $100K per lawsuit just to avoid the discovery.
