Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.A Kentucky teenager sued CNN on Tuesday for defamation, saying the cable network falsely conveyed to viewers that he was the"face of an unruly hate mob" confronting a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington in January.
In photos and videos that went viral from the incident, Sandmann is seen standing face to face with Native American activist Nathan Phillips. Sandmann stares and smiles at Phillips while Phillips sings and plays his drum. “The CNN accusations are totally and unequivocally false, and CNN would have known them to be untrue had it undertaken any reasonable efforts to verify their accuracy before publication," the complaint said.A private investigation firm commissioned by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Covington in Park Hills, Kentucky, to review the incident concluded last month that there was no evidence the students provoked a confrontation.
It is lent. Shouldn’t you repent for your own actions which caused you any undo threats or negative response? Everyone needs to be more tolerant and stop videoing your life and concentrate on living your life in a respectful kind and tolerant manner like Christ would
🙄
Ridiculous and frivolous suit. This is why people shouldn’t video events. Doesn’t this give the Indian nation the right to sue him? This is a waste of taxpayers money
So now I see you showing words carefully lmao. When that happened you said his name , school, home town. Now you trying to play it off. Nice try NBC
Wow , they are suing everyone ! When everyone should be suing him !
Poor white privilege kid
He did act like an ass!
Kick their lying ass kid....they didn’t give a damn about the truth.
You are next,
Go get em. CNN has turned out to be a tool for US traitors and when guillotine gets ramped up, will be headless.
He may not have been the face when the day began, but he quickly became the face once he started sticking it where it didn't belong.
Good..hope he wins!
That’s old news
Freaking awesome!!! I hope he wins to hold the media accountable for their fake hate insinuations....
Look out NBC/MSNBC, you are next. You may want get your paperwork in order.
Banjo playing deliverance loving Hillbilly
Good Luck with that. LOL
White poor kid
Truth is an absolute defense.
He got his 15 minutes...that’s what he really wanted. 🙄
Good for him. Try researching a story occasional before putting it out. Not everything needs to be instantly reported. His biggest problem will be that $275m is about like $1 million per CNN viewer...
He acted like a disrespectful teen and he presented himself as he portrayed himself to be.
BS lawsuit!
I’d vote for a defendant’s verdict based alone upon his smirk.
So can I sue Fox News every time they said Muslims are bad Mexicans are rapists etc etc etc....
If it looks like an asshole, it’s probably an asshole...🤷🏻♀️
Really?
The great face of the next generation of Republican opportunists.
People like this kid always play the victim
“Confronted”, still lying now aren’t we?
And when the internet discussed how he should react or reply he went with their suggestions instead. He just dropped the 55 line. You're welcome. Just make it easy to get a story to you. Here and there.
The teen assumed the position by standing there and not denouncing this fact. He's countless interviews where he could have made this point but failed to do so. Why now, what has changed?
Hope a judgment wipes out all bonuses cnn
Lol. Hate to say it, but what a loser. And shame on his parents who are clearly teaching the wrong lesson ... taking the low road instead of the high road. Sad!
Jackass
Please do sue. Then we can sue fake news FoxNews
It is true the kid was an instigator in the riot. He did nothing to stop his classmates from their continued berating of those present. The kid stood in front of the American Indian in hopes to intimidate him. It was age discrimination. He treated the man with disrespect.
He’s gonna win lol
And he will be able to retire on a warm beach somewhere before he is 21. This is about setting a example and letting the 'fake' media in America know that if you can be sued, you will. Many more people are going to go after what has become a dangerous anti-truth media.
Good luck with that skippy
Anybody that has seen the full video have to ask why teachers go to a supposed school activity wearing MAGA Hats, insteD of keeping distance they approach the individuals, when a Native American tries to defuse the situation you disrespect him and then cameras make you realize...
How do a racist use a network for binning a racist if the case Fox News could be sue for racist bigotry support of a gate group and causing a hostile environment by promoting racism
Ridiculous
The child is as dumb as his choice of hat.
This kid needs an epic courtroom smackdown
Hope he wins.
His stare was nothing but full of scorn and ridicule towards the native American.
He's ignorant and that sneer on his face is ugly. I hope he loses.
I hope CNN gets it broke off in their ass. Some at CNN would like that. Lol.
It’ll be nice to see Nick spending his life’s earnings paying CNN’s legal fees! Keep compounding your initial, arrogant fuckup! That’ll learn yah, Boy!
OUCH
This Kid needs to grow up instead of asking for a Free Ride (in my opinion).
Just wait for discovery of his email, cell phone, snaps, and all of his friends and family.
Please hope this crap gets tossed out of court. What is clear is this is a mob of arrogant entitled teens. What they have learned to to never take responsibility for their actions 🤯
They will be suing soon as well...
He will get $0, the same as WaPo will pay him. This suit was filed to impress Trump's dolt-cult followers.
This kid is a disgrace an part of the problem
God bless.
Pay the kid cnn!!
That kid is nothing more than a sucmbag who can't handle the truth so we are going to sue😠
The liberal left media does what it wants and gets away with it
is next. The half truth you guys pawn off as news to your lemming leftist consumers is laughable. Bias Propagandists
tRUmp Jr
the parents give permission for a second intervie there for .. u lost .. unless also go back to what happened that day where he was also caught saying ' it's not rape if you like it' caught on camera more than once
Tell the student to 'Go Phuque Yourself'!
GTFOH.....
So are we going to forget the fact he skip school where's the truant officer cuz apparently his parents didn't know where he was at and they found out when it hit the news so who's to blame here 😂😂 sounds like a case of bad parenting if you would have had control of your kid
$275 million is straight-up delusional. People don’t get that much money for being wrongly shot by the police. People don’t get that much money for being wrongly imprisoned for decades. $275M for having your face on TV showing you doing something you actually did? That’s insane.
Poor little rich boy! I wonder how much his parents will pay to get him into a fancy college?
THIS BRAT KNOWS NOT WHAT HIS PARENTS & OTHERS ARE DOING TO ENRICH THEMSELVES & HIM, AT HIS EXPENSE!
Your 15 minutes are over jerk! MAGA CovingtonCatholic
NBC also attacked this kid so FU NBC. You are a huge part of the fake news world.
We shall see.
You should be next
Good luck with that punk.
Good for him. Disgrace what they put this Kid through.
A Trumpster through and through. Create a victim then play the victim. Then abuse the court system. What absolute trash.
They should get every cent.
It’s going nowhere even the lawyers on Fox News said it will never get to court
Good luck with that asshat
He did , entitled little brat
What an entitled douchebag. Hope he ends up having to pay every dollar of CNN's legal fees.
He was the asshole face smerking while the other kids laughed! CNN reported what they saw. It is STILL WHAT I SEE!!! He could have stepped aside!!!
Where are these numbers for these lawsuits coming from?
THE LITTLE BASTARD GOT RIGHT UP INTO HIS FACE AND SMIRKED, THE ELDER SAID HE WAS TAUNTING HIM, IF HE KNEW HE WAS THE FACE OF THE ANGRY DUMB ASSES HE SHOULD HAVE BACKED OFF
I didn't get that message from your smirk, just disrespect for an elder, disrespect for his race and general bad manners. Alas, the TV shot showed your true nature.
cause that picture really looks like a poir defenseless kid hope they subpoena everyone who was there to confirm what we saw with our own eyes and heard with our own ears - entitled MagaRacists bullying an elder EvangelicalLies RepublicanLies
LOL
Good for him. He deserves to win!!! CNN, Washington Post, ABC, NBC, and others need to stop attacking white citizens with false racism accusations! Enough!!
Wow that's trumpian...
It’s about time!
Listen Son you did this to yourself. Shame on you. This is a really sad that you don’t understand what you did. Now you are blaming somebody else for your problem. Your attitude was uncalled for. You wanted to be noticed and you were.
Oh please. The entitled elite is now suing bc their shining son got headlines on being a spoiled brat.
The disrespect kids have today is ridiculous. Let's just first start with 1 RESPECTING YOUR ELDERS! invading the space of the Tribal Indians face. / Unruly kids think it's okay to disrespect teachers and adults in the school system like fighting them, snatchin off their wigs.
So is this how they are trying to make money now? When racial scare tactics failed, sue the media! Typical MAGAs...
Nonsense
The fakes news mob got to Pay!
Screw that he put himself there. Legs broke, no he walked into it. Broke legs while standing, no he stood there and did not walk away. Maybe it’s time to learn consequences of your actions. Grow up
The media, CNN and NBC, did everything they could to smear this young man for being young, white and catholic.
98 percent of Kentucky would lynch an Indian and a Catholic School kid is playing it like he is part of the 2 percent.
I hope CNN pays... NBC ran with the story as well
No trump is that face
Hope he wins
I'd like to smack that grin off his face.
What a smug little brat. Hope he loses and has to pay CNN AND America for wasting their time.
Oh for crying out loud.
Since Fox got out of defamation lawsuit by claiming it’s a entertainment channel and didn’t seem to lose credibility, CNN could probably do the same thing. I don’t suggest doing that, but that’s how Fox remains immune from truth telling.
275 million. Easy snowflake.
More people need to take this stance when the media chooses to spin stories/ situations in their favor to promote certain political views or for a ratings grab. He prob won't win but I sure hope this is the start of holding the media responsible.
Oh really
Hopefully this will be thrown out of court with a smile.
45 will pay for him.
Duh! We all watched the video.
😂😂😂Good luck with that what a loser and it was his fault
People laugh but he’ll get some money out of this, believe it.
Of course we all know there never was confrontation. This 16 yr old did nothing wrong and had his future smeared. Shameful hate narrative=bullying
I still believe he was confrontational!! Lawyersspin
So who is that in that mans face?
Good ... 275 mil excessive but they went after him because he fit their narrative of four things they like to demonize ... catholic, white, and a hat and male! Media running with a story without research and facts.
Go figure
CNN definitely guilty here!
Hope he’s successful
I hope he gets his money CNN and NBC and Washington Post they all came after a 16 year old just because they could talk about Trump and racist and his supporters!! It was a lie and I hope it costs them bigly!!!
CRAWL BACK UNDER YOUR ROCK!
So now the Native American should sue him.
Good
White privilege is a hell of a drug.
Can you believe this arrogant little descendant of freeloaders in our domain the Americas... 🌎 Commentary courtesy of...we on 🐢 TurtleIsland
Actually most Liberal MSM news network did not just CNN. All of them should be sued.
Good!! Share the full story, not what you know will get people angry. Hate is fueled from the Left...
Play the entire video
That is not the face of innocence.
Hope he wins.
Look at this punk , the face tells it all how many of u have this cocky look from ur own kids ! He just wants his 15 minutes of fame, oh yeah free money!
This lawsuit is going to be thrown out for being frivolous not to mention that the amount asked for is so outrageous that there is no way any court would grant it!
Well that’s how you “Make America Great Again “ when you don’t like what someone says about you,then sue them. Isn’t that The Trump Way.
Another Spoiled Rich Kid!
Seriously, look at that face! While others are laughing!
This kid is an ass
Poor poor racist bigot. He and his family are not injured and are looking for money for nothing. You are judged according to the company you keep and karma appears to be real. He was there on purpose and the results were predictable. Life lesson
Where's the defamation?
LiarsLeakersAndLiberals Fake News Enemy of the People need to be held accountable - sue their pants off kiddo!
Oh. I get it now
I can understand him being angry, I can understand him wanting an apology, I can even understand why he wants CNN to pay..... But, what I don't understand, is how on earth did they arrive at this numbers?👀 275M? Seriously dude? 🤔
Good luck. Want to be a millionaire overnight CNN is not the Powerball nor Mega Million
I hope his parents have to pay CNN’s attorney fees after he loses.
CNN wasn't the only news agency to say that.Wonder why he picked just them.
You might want to turn around and look at your surroundings
Good for him.
Um... He was the face of an unruly hate mob......
Hateful kid.
Looking forward to justice being served. FakeNews is trying to destroy our society.
Yeah, well CNN was right. This ‘teen’, his parents, his church, and all who watched know that the smug smirk says it all. They are also managing to unjustly enrich themselves over it, just like their golden calf in the Oval.
But, he wants over a qtr billion $ though? For, 'offending, and misrepresenting him?' Yep. That good ol 'privilege,' card. He'll probably get it. Or, something just as comfortable. Smh 😑
boom fakenews payup
It was that phony Nathan Phillips that did the confronting... Confronted a 15yo kid beating a stick in his face. Maybe the kids dad shoulda slapped some adult sense into him.
Oh get a grip
Good for him
🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was also wrong in not just backing away. He didn't need to smirk in the mans face
Shocking...
They won't see one dollar. Please.
The family is suing several news organizations. They’re determined to make $ off of it. His face was certainly conveying snarky attitude.
Won’t be long before you get your papers NBC FakeNewsMedia
Good for him. CNN has more money then they have viewers 😀👏
He should be the Times next “Man of the Year” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 each so called “journalist” should personally pay 💰
Now they want to get rich out of their bully behavior.
These ridiculous kids are still getting press
Perfect example of fake news
Don't care so sick of hearing about this little spoiled tRumpaholic
About time somebody holds CNN accountable for all its lies good for the young kid
They deserve it. You in the hate Trump media went too far
Uh....there is a lot more o I than that.....and your next!
Your rich families plan to smear the native american with PR firm failed, your parents pimping you out to talk shows failed. So you sue.... Uh NOPE!
Publicity stunt or what?
Those fake news networks need some penalty!
He won’t see a penny of that money, he just ruined his life even more
I hope they have to pay every cent of it.........
Misty__Bella This is just the start. There are many more who should be sued for the same offence. If justice is served this young man will never have to do a day's work in his life.
Good for him. God bless that boy🙏
Get this stupid kid out of tweeter
Good
That kid deserves every penny. It's about time fake news and the radical left goes down.
Still trying to make this clown a victim huh.
They still pushing that spin of.. 'My MAGA hat wearing smirky face son & his laughing buddies were simply minding their business and are completely innocent' huh? Not buying it! And I hope the courts do not buy it either!
God bless him
He has a damn good case and The best lawyer in these matters. Lin Wood. Defamation lawsuits are hard to prove but this is obvious.
Change “confronting” with “when he was confronted by”.
You and your friends, it was reported, retreated to your chaperones who then, it was reported, advised you and your Religious High School kids to return to confront them, to stand your ground. A responsible chaperone, I think, would have had you all to head back to your buses.
Sick Little boy, was so clear his disrespect
Hey kid, it was your face. You volunteered to stand their trying to stare down this man many years older and wiser. If you know the whole story, that man and his friends, their intent was to stand between all of you, some 200 it was said and that group throwing out racial slurs.
All started with his parents..he wasn't born an arrogant, bigoted brat..he was taught. What's Catholic school trippers doing wearing MAGA hats..but, then it figures considering their exposed history of sex abuse..why wouldnt Trump be their mentor. I hope CNN doesnt settle.
Coming soon to your network
I wonder where he learned this being the perpetrator, but calling himself the victim, and wanting money for it.
Hope he loses
The media incited the mob and endangered children this time. It is time for the media to stop reporting false stories.
Sick America.
Fail
Because he was
Anybody that can not see that he is playing to his audience is a Trump supporter.
CNN had every opportunity to apologize but refused therefore they will pay for their arrogance.
That's sure to get thrown out as 'frivolous' anyone with EYES & EARS could see that dumb jerk in the native American's face. He was violating his space. Then his low down butt blamed it on a group of black men. Just take the tape to court the jury will decide easily.
Got to love White people, they are bold and shameless, these people will abuse you, oppress you and even harm you but turn around and play the victim, i say bravo !
It sure as hell wasn't CNN videoing this? This kid and his arrogant, racist family are going to lose this case big time. And when they do, I sure as hell hope CNN seeks all legal costs. Bankrupt the little shit..
You’re next.
I'm glad somebody is trying to put CNN in their place. Too bad we can't make a law to keep news outlets like CNN who are so obviously biased from tainting the truth. We know everyone there dislikes the president but what you like is not relevant, it's what the people like.
Unruly Hate Mob is mainstream media ... Go get them Boy !!!
Put him on the stand the little shit
JeannieG40 I wouldn't give him 27 cents!
dkahanerules You're likely next.
Then there's this
Nice deceptive wording NBC, they’re not being sued for a false statement—They’re being sued for knowingly & intentionally defrauding their viewers to disparage an innocent minor. They were given the chance to retract & apologize or be sued—CNN CHOSE option B.
And rightly so. But they’re being sued because THEY not only failed to retract their erroneous accusations, but refused to, CNN continued to knowingly deceive their viewers thereby further disparaging a minor. CNN doesn’t have a legal leg to stand on.
Parents teaching him right....
Hope he wins.
How about an apology and a free lesson in life. Yea that sounds better .Sue happy society. Yea let’s give him lots of money , that will teach good values. 🙄. No , nope.
He’s gonna lose $275mill the little dirt box
How do we arrive at 275 mill? Get back to school. Free rides don’t come cheap! Disgusting.
I hope that Covington kid gets the 275 million and puts a end to this crap. Facts only.
Well yeah...that college admission bribe isn’t gonna pay for itself...
Imagine if he wins what would change in news coverage! Checking facts, honest reporting, fear of getting sued for bias media.. 🤔
Slam dunk.
Yea he is as repulsive as he acted that day. Now we know he is full of crap. His parents must be so proud. They will be judge shopping.. WhitePriveledge
Another of privilege.
Good you should have sue CNN the fake news network for Democrats for 5 billion dollars
Awesome. They never even apologized... Just out to ruin lives for their ratings
Greedy parents. Very greedy attorney. Sick of these lawsuits against those who have deep pockets. The Native American activist in this photo reported that he felt threatened by this student who invaded his personal space.
Kid was smarter than the haters.
Not a damn nickel!
In your dreams
He was that face.
Well if you can sued for this type of stuff FoxNews is going out of business
He is not a child I would b proud of.
For what? Covering that this kid and his friends were rude jerks?
Where is Nick going to college? It depends on his SAT scores because he has INTEGRITY!
Do they really want to have their past students history displayed for the nation to see ? Rapists , pedo's, murderers ,thieves.....
ALL networks are out of control. The proliferation of 85 news channels & them having to fill 24 hrs on air time has turned them into glorified opinion shows. Commentators don’t remain neutral & often are most opinionated. Next step is to have guests start wrestling each other.
More BS lawsuits
Good! You lying leftiss in the MSM need to be cut down to size and exposed for your biases in pretending to report real news.
Bahahaha, 275 million. Hysterical.
Love the whiny liberals in here with their double standards. CNN’s irresponsibile, hate the right messaging left out the racist black nuts telling obscenties, falsely reported the Native American’s stolen valor, and all because the kid was a straight while male in a MAGA hat.
I saw what you did with my own eyes!
$265 million for looking bad on tv? What a f’ing crybaby. Same goes for his entitled parents as well.
Good luck with that.
this kid is a joke! his smirk in the video meant exactly what the media said.he was being a smart ass,over privileged brat!
Prove it! Watch the WHOLE video. Another example of rich thinking that it was them that was treated poorly.
Just rent a 15 year old to smack that punk ass grin off his face and throw down 20 bucks . A Catholic kid . Needs it to rent some porn !
I thought he some other news service also!
IN OTHER NEWS THE FAKE MEDIA WONT TELL YOU ABOUT: James Comey testified (under oath) that it was a “unanimous” decision not to press charges on Crooked Hillary. However, recently declassified Lisa Page transcripts showed it wasn't unanimous. HE LIED. QAnon is the news now
Imagine thinking you were entitled to 275 million. Go kick rocks kid.
Now he know how black people feel
CNN is as bad as Fox!
🤣😂😂😂
With Extreme Prejudice 👍
Where's the Republicans and their calls for tort reform?
Discovery will bring this to a grinding halt.
Hum? Smearing teenagers for political points? Take CNN to the woodshed
Take polygraph test to determine his underlying intention. Appeared to me from his smudge face and spurred by onlookers, he was challenging the Native activist!
Well he appeared to be
Would love to be on that jury!! He would find out who is lying!
You can tell what type of family he comes from with horrible Catholic values.
Dismissed
Your Next!
CNN should counter sue for defamation!
Now it's fun. Hope the kid loses bigly.
He is literally the face of white privilege. Who else could bring a targeted retaliation the way his family has and now followed by this?
BS
Boy bye🤣🤣🤣
Rubbish! His parents only wants the money! Disgusting!
I guess Nicholas Sandmann felt that he wasn't hated enough with that confrontation and wants to be hated more.
Hope he buys cnn
I hope he wins. CNN next time will do real journalism instead of propaganda.
I don't think it was the teen but his parents....
I wouldn't have called them a hate mob - Just a group of disrespectful kids mocking an old man.
A similar lawsuit is coming to your network soon NBC
Nich Sandmann is a creep. criminal in training.
He is crazy, money hungry.
Your next!
That smirk says it all!
Speaking of rich parents taking care of their kids...
🤣😂🤣 yeah good luck
CNN and WaPo should be sued into receivership over this. Examples need to be made of the leftist rage mob.
Million dollar smile. ❤️
CNN should counter sue that trumpet kid for $1B.
That’s great cnn deserves it
So, not just a jerk, but greedy, too.
Really? Who coached him - the POS. 🥶
They’re filing all these lawsuits in hopes they will get settlements, because in discovery Nick’s mother will be exposed for all of the racist posts from her now deleted Facebook. This kid is getting set up for a lifetime of karma repayment. These pigs are gaming the legal system
How is this the same person?
The AFFLUENZA SYNDROME.
Not sure he is as innocent as portrayed!
He deserves every penny! I hope he wins! CNN is just gross!
People used to privilege never learn.They continue their bizarre behaviour.Need big push back/backlash.
He should sue his face
Maybe if he’d take that smug entitled grin off his face people wouldn’t have thought that.... just a thought
Didn’t the person who used MAGA as campaign slogan is against frivolous lawsuits?
haleyhaley2012 Follow the money and see who is paying for his lawsuit.
This kid needs to set down an shut up He was disrespectful too this elderly man the smerk on his face said it all
He is also the face of white privilege. Sue me
He should get zero dollars for his behavior.
CNN was not alone So does this Kid think he is going to sue Everybody he comes across in his in life? That dont say He is a Great Human? Just wondering cause he will have a lot of Law Suits in his Life Time Just saying
He was.
Please please award this kid a win. CNN needs to be responsible for their actions!!!!!
The teen’s lawyer should stop at this point before someone finds cause to charge his client for inciting or provoking a crowd of his peers for what seemed to be in-your-face taunting, unless the Native was giving him a boner.
Not only am I rooting for these ridiculous lawsuits to be thrown out of court for both CNN and WP I'm sincerely hoping he judges make him pay the legal fees for both news organizations for dealing with frivolous lawsuits. Also, sanction the attorney's who brought them.
He should sue the aggressive Apache indian that was about to scalp him
I still think he was being a butthole, jr supremacist and jerk! He should be strapped to a polygragh and asked about his motive of being there.
Wow, not Native American but Indian. “The Indian wanted to provoke”, interesting,
Kentucky teen’s parents sue CNN4 defamation... he is a minor after all, are they goin use some of the proceeds to pay for securing his entrance 2 a prestigious 🇺🇸 college... hope his SAT scores are up there, oh guess that don’t matter any more $$$
We all saw the video. It’s clear those punk kids were goading an elderly Native American. CNN reported the story from multiple angles.
Now everyone else that CNN has defamed needs to sue them and put them out of business.
Gotta pay for those Ivy League admissions bribes somehow.
This boy needs to show us where he is the face of love and tolerance. These lawsuits only enforce his negative image. Vindictiveness..
I think I should be suing for having to see this crap show up and clog my feed.
Give it up little boy..You had your 15 minutes.
Come on.....is this real?
He can dry his tears on money.
Bullshit
Truth as an absolute defense to a defamation case.
Time to
Wanted attorney fees ... they’ll never get a dime.
This kid isn’t even worth a well thought out comment.
Talk about a gratuitous lawsuit. Get bent, Nick. The world saw you try to intimidate the elder.
Take them for everything.
He will Be the FACE OF IGNORANCE for his entire life. Glad his parent have money to waste on lawyers to prove to the world that he is an entitled, racist Sorry excuse for an American
Show me the $$$$$
Nbc is next
Kid gonna get PAID...
Oh good, another privileged white boy thinking he is owed something. And I’m sure mommy and daddy are coddling him through it all. Give me a break.
What he is is a spoiled little brat with a entitled smug look on his face and a very disrespectful one at that!
He's hurting his name worse than the news did
That kid was disrespectful and Am catholic. He stood eye to eye with an elderly and that’s disrespectful. I hope he loses and am sure ewtn is backing him on this.
Screw this punk and his entitled family. Have they bribed his future college yet?
What a joke
Wow I can’t believe the stupid comments on here if you watched the whole video and still didn’t see that this kid did absolutely nothing wrong then u are pure stupid!!!
Insert deranged leftist hot takes
And, some people will sue for anything. Trying to find a quick payout.
Televise this trial ! Best use of money ever ! Show everyone who these people really are . Bring it MAGA ! Can’t wait to show the world your privilege and hate !
And I hope he collects every penny.... after attorney’s cut of course
Typical republicons.. always out for a fast buck
Nah
Have to wonder what his damages are? He had to know the cameras were rolling. He can’t deny the smirk on his face.
He’s gonna win
You’re next, !
CNN didn't say anything they let the video say it all. The kid is a punk
Yep and all they had to do is watch the whole video!
Attorney sees a payday coming.
Sure especially with that smug face plus all the laughing boys in the background. Yup! Go for it! It’s kinda sorta weird how they’re only suing one news outlet. Is it because “friends in high places” suggested... nah, that couldn’t be it.
He was
Holding the media accountable for their twisted lies is awesome. Everyone should be doing it.
Now go after each so called journalist individually.....do not forget NBC, ABC, CBS, and MSNBC
You know who deserves $250 million? All the kid getting touched by pedo priest!
This guy is not going to prevail. They are asking for $275 million from CNN & $250 from Washington Post. In no way, shape, or form is his life worth this evaluation. It makes this Covington student, parents, PR & his lawyers look grotesquely greedy.
Y E.S.
You're next NBC!
nah he’s just a racist. sue me
This whole thing is now even more ridiculous. 1 kid in questionable act + 1 school who screwed up + 1 grp absent parents on site+ ALL media reporting real time ___________________ Eguals = No Conclusion NO $$
You may think you have done nothing wrong, you may even have gone to confession.... but if it were me I would remember Karma and hedge my bets. I grew up Catholic and went to parochial school for 12 years, I would do the right thing. Not worry about being right.
Unbelievable!!
He should be smacked
You said the same thing 🤣🤣
He gets peanuts 🖕
He needs to be punched in that insipid face many times, then sent on his merry way.
Lol
NBC next!
Grow up kid
I hope this kid’s law suit is dismissed as the frivolous & greedy ploy it appears to be.
I’ll bet the case will hinge on the MAGA hat.
He looks like a make America hate again punk with his racist hat on and stairing down the old man playing the drum.
This is from an exec at Collegewise - a national test prep and college admissions service that makes $ off high schoolers and their families. He was highly referenced in a chronicle of Higher Ed piece today regarding the college scandal, yet advocated for hurting these boys.
He will lose.... He was disrespectful and rude to elder ....
Milk it!
I hope he wins every dollar plus legal fees!
Outstanding !!
Dismissed
Good for them. Fuck CNN and everyone who slandered these kids over the racist, homophobic black people who started hostilities and the race baiting Indian 'activist' guy who was trying to look like the victim.
I hope he loses and that CNN sues for legal costs.
Notice every time a tRump scandal hits, these weird sides stories start springing up. This kid is most definitely being put up to this.
Hopefully CNN will countersue for the same amount.
Youth is a twit I tweet
Whoa~ takes that kid this long to come out with the defamation lawsuit? I would’ve go straight to the lawsuit the moment CNN broke the story.
He and his attorneys are suing WAPO and CNN. I expect most Americans would/will support a sixteen year old suing for defamation and slander after the abuse he, his friends and school received at the hands of the media.
Ill-advised kid....
Boy sit down. A hot mess. One luv💋
He's suing CNN for $275 million, Washington Post for $250 million and there's a list of about 10 others to be announced like : Bill Maher, Alyssa Milano and other dirtbag leftist who jumped to conclusions and smeared him. Oh and his Lawyers are killers.
All fake news reporting should be prosecuted to the full list extent of the law
You bet. All these people that piled on to ruin a kid should be made to account. Pitiful.
Still don’t like em
The face of privilege. Why CNN? That newsfeed was EVERYWHERE. I smell a hidden agenda. GET OUT HERE
Now we see if the PR firm was worth the $$ his parents and McConnell paid for it.
Surely this puts can make free money off his bad behavior from somewhere!
Why the daily posting NBC?
kate_hawkins776 I thought he was suing the WAPO? Wow.
NBC is next to be sued
But doesn’t the Native American agree with CNN? 🤔
Will he settle out of court for 5 hail Mary's and 3 Our fathers?
Just another case of smug RichPrivilege entitled superiority.
I hope they sue too
And he will win ! MAGA 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏼
Maybe teen boys shouldn’t show up to a pro life rally without a vagina and voting rights. Covington Catholic likely endorsed this and contributed to the outcome.
Another CollegeCheatingScandal recipient.
We will see that face and his cohorts again. It will not be for anything noble or good.
See more ppl are WAKEUPAMERICA FackNews FACTSMATTER WWG1WGA QAnon WeAreTheNewsNow Straighten Up Fake News & Back our POTUS or bust.
False claim!
You guys are next
Smirk if I ever saw one! He enjoyed his friends’ reaction, also! As a career educator, I have seen that smirk many times!
People forget that the white male is always the victim.
His whole life isn’t worth $2.50 😂😂😂 You have to have a reputation to get defamed.
lol, does this kid not know that we all saw?
LeslieMarshall To be fair to cnn, wearing a MAGA hat is the international symbol that you’re a member of at least one unruly hate mob.
Spoiled little bigot now needs money for Mommy and Daddy to buy him into college-or pay for the call girls at Louisville now that they are no longer free...
Right! Because that little MAGATwit can prove a quarter billion dollars of damage to his racist character.
Ha ha ha
Did he win the one he has with Washington Post
Must have missed the lesson about turning the other cheek!
Hitler's; I mean Trumps youth acting like they were and the little prick standing there acting smug, yes they were acting like an unruly mob. Add to it the little prick going after Trumps' fave network for $275 million hmmmmm
He’s exactly the way the headline describes him to be and then some...
Well deserved MAGA
I’ve been falsely accused of 7 different defamations slander but I can’t afford to fight back legally
To me he (boy) should lose. You ask for attention you got it. But you know it was wrong. God help this boy grow up and learn morals. It has nothing to do with caps just Good manners. You never get in no ones face no matter what.
From the different videos I saw I got a different view of what he was doing. The Native American was in the middle of a scared ritual. The rude kid tried to antagonize him. Brain dead kid. No respect. I thought Christian school's taught integrity, morals and values. I saw none.
i’d like to sue his smug face
I don't think the amount is justified of course.
So now he’s just a Kentucky kid ? At first you were blasting his full name
Good cause that was bullcrap. All because he's Indian
I hope he suffers untold humiliation. Maybe he needs to sue his friends, the ones who recorded and spread his idiocy.
College bribe money?
I hope he wins and CNN goes down in flames.
F maga hat kid and his attempt to turn his bad behavior into a pay day.
Old news.
Taking after his daddy... Butthurt so he sues... Did he get into tRump university?
NBC didn’t make the same mistake?
He needs the money to buy his way into college
Nicolas Sandmann was the face of racial hatred.
He will win over the bigoted, hateful left-wing media. Careful ....you are probably next....
Don't worry, I'm sure he'll get to you eventually.
Don’t give him any more coverage, please.
That’s ‘merica. In today’s wtf.
He's a jerk
Good for him. He is bullied by an adult and CNN pushed their agenda on a CHILD. I hope this becomes a warning to verify the truth before destroying someone especially a minor! PAY UP CNN
Can judges roundhouse kick asshats with smug faces?
He needs to go back to his twin bed, power ranger sheets and relax and hope to not get beat up...
My hope is he use money to help his friends get into VOCATIONAL training or college
I hope he wins!
Oh don’t worry, MSNBC is in the list.
But did he get a signed bible? Pontifex realDonaldTrump
Conservatives on the offensive.... Love it!!!!!
His parents need the money to buy him into a good school
Sorry Kid. But as Kentucky teen. Mitch McConnell stole any bit of credibility may have you by taking millions of dirty money from the Russians.
I hope his parents spend all their college bribe money on this frivolous bullshit.
He is the face of an unruly hate mob.
I hope NBC is next on the list
Can you say being used and / or coached?
Just remember, fake news and libs hate whites.
Pretty sure CNN just reported the story. It looked how it looked.
Because these are the moneyed people of this country, who are fomenting hatred in their religious schools, are likely funded by the GOP. A frivolous lawsuit that can't stand up to the First Amendment, who reported this in the moment in good faith.
To much probably will not get it
All fake news should be held accountable for their lies and slander.
This is Bat Shit crazy.Kid knew what he was doing-Taunted the Native Am-got in his way so he couldn’t move around to drum-Ass-wipe has the nerve to sue!?CNN covered the event correctly w/o bias.Even protected him they didn’t show everything he did.
We can positively say he’s the face of greed and privilege and almost everything wrong in the US today.
Filing lawsuits for profit ... only in America.
He has a disrespectful smirk on his face. Shame on his parents; they had an opportunity to teach him how to be a respectable member of society. Instead they’re enforcing his entitlement “poor me”, “not my fault” position.
This is beyond ridiculous. Just look at his face. It says it all.
Guess who’s next.
Geez. Enough already.
Haha! I hope he wins the lawsuit. NBC should be sued for all of their fake news and propaganda! And why do you not use his name now? The story no longer fits your narrative so his name isn't worth mentioning now?
A face made for punching.
Yawn 🙄
Hope he wins HUGE!!!!
Good luck with that nonsense kid.
Hmmm
Covington student is not a victim, he is a punk! Covington school failed in their mission, screw em all.
I hope he gets every penny.
Sign right here and we will get you MAGA Millions!! We don’t get paid unless you get paid!! And if you get into a car accident we can get you money for that also!!
Sorry but he clearly was very smug in his face off. Don’t know what he was trying to prove. Clearly doesn’t deserve a dime.
Hope he wins, CNN is disgraceful.
He has to do something now that Mommy who hired him a publicist can’t buy him a college seat. What a joke, this kid needs an awakening.
That boy just needs a good whoopin
Typical American response to sue if someone hurts your feelings for being WhitePrivilege CovingtonCatholic I guess they need money. I heard it's expensive to get into American schools these days. entitled
He needs the money to get into a top tier college.
The kid held great composure and acted more mature than that psycho fossil beating his toy drum
Good for Nick! He was the ideal young man, standing his ground without starting a fight as the indian wanted to provoke. I hope they have to pay.
touchybeing atage
ABC 1'st yr law student could destroy him. He wore that MAGA HAT to stir up a reaction. Every action gets a reaction. MAGA hat a a white Racist hat. It really means make America all white again. An to wear to a Native American Rally. He new exactly what he was doing.
It’s for his college bribe
That's Exactly What He Is.The Face Of A Young White Savage With A White Nationalist Hat On.
Good. That'll teach folks to presume guilt.
The fact that he thinks he's a victim is incomprehensible!
This kid prayed for something like this to happen to he could sue
more entitlement.
This is not news...this is America. Go to sleep NBC you're drunk
I guess he needs the money to get into the college of his choice🤔
CalvinSwine905 What ever
This kid doesn’t care about his reputation. He only cares about money
Wgat an ugly boy... Outside & in.
I hope he wins!!!
What an overblown sense of self importance!
This is just the beginning
$525 Mill
Ridiculous!
Oh please. We saw your face.
Of course he does; he’s a MAGA boy looking for easy $$$.
Lol. If you don't want to be on the news, A) Don't go to a newsworthy event And B ) Don't do something moronic while you're there. Fucking Republican snowflakes. Always suing when their feelings are hurt.
could facial expression be more smug than that kid? SMH i know what my brothers would have done to him!
That child is repugnant. His parents ugh...
His hat conveyed that message. CNN just aired his disrespect. Lawsuit thrown out and his parents pay the legal fees.
Did he sue, or did his wealthy parents sue?
He seems nice.
Best of luck to him someone has to stop this lying bullshit news reports
That MAGA racist Catholic high school kid deserves to get a good priesting.
This guy is going to be very very rich- Good
Oh you Kentucky Student crazy!
😂😂😂 Good luck with that.
Remember when conservatives wanted tort reform to crack down on frivolous lawsuits?
Hope he gets EVERY penny! Go get ‘em, Nick!
JeannieG40 Nice to be rich already and have lawyers. The story was larger but dude was a dick.
Excellent. I hope he bankrupts CNN.
I agreed with their decision of suing! The Media doesn’t care about destroying lives by posting misleading information!
Good luck, maggat
Uh, yes, CNN reported what millions of people saw - his face being on the forefront of this confrontation. Just because the Catholic Diocese didn’t declare he agitated the Native American man does not mean he didn’t play a role or was involved in this confrontation!
Obviously
I volunteer to sit on this jury
About time. Accountability for Left Propaganda!!
Pack it up and go home kids and start your life on a new foot... you were wrong!
🤣 🤣. is probably next.
Ha ha .. the world was watching ..
🙄🙄🙄
Time to sue NBC! He did not confront the American, the American confronted the teen! NBC socialist bold faced liars!
Another case of narcissistic entitlement. 😞
He should sue them for a billion $ and pull the plug on their hatred based fake news network.
No Worries, you wont be left out, you'll receive yours in short order.
I hope he bankrupts them. The news isn't simply what you say it is, try being journalists again and search for truth. Until then, the American people will continue to hate you.
If only CNN would piss off Peter Thiel, that would be a better matchup
It’s amazing the liberals that flock to a NBC tweet... and none of you snowflakes really care about FACTS!!!
Now he is the face of frivolous lawsuits
Pahlease...
Fox news needs to be sued
Just a poor little maga white boy that wants money and news coverage
I still think he was in the wrong!
And his response is to make himself look like more of an ass?
Go away, kid. Your 15 minutes are up.
Next up, nbc
All his attorneys might be just salivating over the thought of their piece of the pie. Who pays if they lose?
Let him lose... trying to play david vs Goliath aint gonna work unless he is suing at judge Ellis court...
He has a name NBC.... and you’re next
Next?.Feeling Lucky MSNBC
They spelled accurately wrong.
They will settle out of court for a handy ivy league school degree.
Hope he gets it
Nobody cares about this brat.
What a total bunch of bs. Rich white folks.
The funny part is he will actually win.
White entitlement, again. The hate goes on.
confirmed buying his way into an ivy league school
get that college bribe money, Trick!
He didn’t get into college so he sued the media. His parents didn’t think to just bribe the schools? Or did they decide to weaponize their son’s unfortunate smirk to make a buck and get their 15 minutes?
He will be a Catholic Priest in the future and rape children
I can’t wait for him to learn his first lesson in disappointment.
This brat is being coached by someone to capitalize on his obvious hatred towards the Indian. Let’s all sue for millions based on how badly WE behave. So pathetic
Go. Away. Please.
So that's why he was smiling
No. His stupid face did.
Must not want to give up the TV interviews 🙄
275? 🙄
can sharks roll their eyes YASSSSS!
What stupid waste of the court's time. This will go nowhere.
I have apologized on Twitter to this teen. I didn’t like his smirky smile . Once I heard the whole story I have supported him 100%
Frivolous
He was wearing a MAGA hat. He is the face of hate.
Affluenza af.
Excellent!!!
He won’t even get 275 cents.
So if he prevails, will he bribe his way into Notre Dame
