I fully support Kyle Rittenhouse, but his lawsuits will ultimately fail against the media.

Kyle is no Nick Sandmann, because Kyle used deadly force, whereas Nick Sandmann just smiled.

Once criminal charges were filed against Kyle, that pretty much nullified any "malice" in reporting against him, because the media were allowed to opine on Kyle's guilt or innocence of the charges brought against the state.

So, what you are saying is if you use your Constitutionally protected rights to survive, our enemedia can lie, AT WILL, about what actually transpired? They can call you a racist, without any actual proof (prejudicing public opinion and slandering your name)? They can lie and tell people you illegally carried a firearm over state lines (prejudicing public opinion and slandering your name)?

If this is true then we, as a people, would be better off letting ourselves get killed in similar instances than be willfully destroyed by our enemedia.

I’m not against you or trying to start an argument, I am simply saying our system of justice is flawed, EXTREMELY FLAWED, if our enemedia is allowed to get away with what they attempted to do to Kyle Rittenhouse. And if our laws ALLOW our enemedia to get away with this, then we need to change the laws!

Sadly, you are probably right. However, he might be able to bring a bright spotlight on the media by forcing discovery on them. In that regards, I think he has a chance to be successful and the effort will be worth it. If he can further show the media to be the lying, Democrat narrative writers that they are, then he will have succeeded. A slow drip can destroy the stiffest wall.

Nick Sandman was able to win against media outlets for repeatedly misrepresenting what happened to him in DC. I know Sandman and Rittenhouse have discussed these lawsuits.

If it can be shown media outlets continued to make false claims about Kyle when the facts were available to the public and reporters, Kyle's case has merit.
