So the media is settling to put the thing to bed not because they fear losing.
"THe kid is the aggressor"? What planet do you live on? Did you actually watch the videos of the racist Indian and his racist gang surrounding the child, beating is little dime-store tom-tom in his face and screaming racist comments at Sandmann and those with him? The fake Vietnam Vet stolen-valor POS is a racist and a ******. One that unfortunately won't be held accountable. Now, with his new-found wealth, maybe Sandmann can sue him as well. The media helped create the lying narrative that the instigator was the child and not the gang of racists.

The kid is the aggressor against the media outlets. It is quite clear he was not in any way responsible for the initial incident. But he went after the media outlets after they retracted the story.

Kindly read for content and avoid the irrelevant.

Enough to stir up some White Privilege I would imagine.

The media got their ass pounded into the dirt.

Thank God for that.

They would argue the scoreboard after the final gun. Reminds me of the Trump/Clinton debates, and Donna Brazille's rebuttal.



Happy Voting.

And you are simply ignoring reality. The kid has a very weak case and could get everything from a $1.00 judgement to being required to pay the Media costs.



And there was never any real probability of a large settlement. Only way that could happen would be for the court to do it as a punishment to the media outlet. Not going to happen.



Tends to indicate that the ongoing litigation is a shoe string operation unlikely to go anywhere.
The diocese did an internal investigation. They did not admit anything.

Your entire argument revolves around the fact that you THINK there was no case. You can provide absolutely nothing to back up your claims and keep repeating the same thing using different words.

Always the lies...

***************************************
About 4 p.m., the Diocese of Covington and Covington Catholic High issued a joint statement that read, in part:

"We condemn the actions of the Covington Catholic High School students towards Nathan Phillips specifically, and Native Americans in general. ... We extend our deepest apologies to Mr. Phillips. This behavior is opposed to the Church’s teachings on the dignity and respect of the human person.

"The matter is being investigated and we will take appropriate action, up to and including expulsion."

The truth is there. Why do you folk not try to get to it.

And YOUR "expertise" in this type of matter, is what?

If I got a big wad of money, settlement, lottery, betting, etc. I would NOT tell the world. It is NOBODY'S business but HIS.

"The media has nothing to prove and is just trying to minimize cost."

The media is ADMITTING their GUILT by paying off.

He was just a child, he was filmed without his permission and after they doxxed him to the public, he was getting death threats.

I support the settlement that he received.

"The kid is the aggressor.", yet is the media who is having to pay up!
