CNN's Joe Lockhart attacks Sandmann as 'snot nose entitled kid' after network's defamation suit
Fox News ^ | August 25 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

CNN political analyst Joe Lockhart attacked former Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann after his network settled a $250 million defamation lawsuit earlier this year.

On Tuesday evening, CNN awkwardly aired Sandmann's speech as part of the second night of the Republican National Convention, where he said his life "changed forever in that one moment" because the "full war machine in the mainstream media revved up into attack mode" while botching its coverage of the 2019 viral confrontation with a Native American elder that had portrayed the Kentucky teen as the aggressor.

However, one of Sandmann's loudest critics came from the network that he settled with.

IF SO CNN MIGHT SAY HE IS ON HIS OWN. I want wager a bag full of nuggets that everyone at CNN had to sign a non-disparagement agreement. You say anything about Sandman and we will not defend you. Good luck Joe.

Unreal. Sandmann should sue CNN again.

I hope, this is unbelievable. If this was my son I would knock Lockharts teeth out, seriously.

I assume Lockhart is a lefty? One of the religions of the left is extreme hypocrisy.

Sounds like it’s time for another lawsuit.

CNN should not talk to their future owner like that. ;-)

Joe Lockhart might be free to say whatever he wants — but CNN could be penalized for letting him say it on air or keeping him as an employee.

“Wouldn’t he lose his ‘not a public figure’ mantle when he decides to make a televised speech at the Republican National Convention?”

I wondered about that, too. Sadly, he became a public figure through no fault of his own at first. Then, when he makes his own decision to appear on national media, does his status change and make him “fair game” for attack?

Wasn’t he a Clinton Press Secretary or something?

As the truth came out this evening, it was lamented that all networks were unable to be seen in real time. How do they sensor this? Do they explain, lie, ignore? They are incapable of telling the truth.
