A lawsuit will be filed Monday or Tuesday against CNN for “false speech”against Covimgton Catholic Student “for reputational damage.” It’s about time someone took on the Democrat supported main stream media. Finally, someone is going to put the “wild dogs back in their cages.” Trump should also hire this same lawyer for the defamation by these same news media of his character.

This should be a “shot across the bow” to all media who have continuously to defame the character and reputation of a innocent Americans by falsely reporting ”bad conduct that did not actually occur.” Maybe this will force these f**e news networks to revise their approach and report the news t***hfully with the reported newsbytes supported by facts rather than hearsay!

Excellent point. Hit them where it hurts.

I suspect that when it is all said and done, the jury's judgement on malicious and willful intent to shape a story will result in a huge settlement for punitive damages.

The media has become sloppy and cavalier. They need to be held accountable more often.

They deserve anything they get, because they have reached a point where, despite calling themselves "journalists," they are anything but: instead of reporting, they are editorializing and calling their dubious product "news."

there will be a small out of court settlement if it goes that far and fox news is just as bad as the rest

Seth

Fox includes a lot more actual information that covers both the negatives and positives of an event. The MSM completely leaves out anything that makes the Dems look bad.

Fix isn’t being sued for libel! Putz

If they get a liberal judge, the case will be squashed quickly. Liberal judges do NOT judge on the basis of LAW, but on the basis of "feelings". Everyone BUT the Covington student will be the victims! CNN will probably claim that the Covington student was "out to get them" from the start...the f**e Vietnam Indian has a "right" to bang his drum in anyone's face....and the Black Hebrew Israelites were just "demonstrating". The opposition to the Covington student is formidable and a liberal judge will make it almost impossible to win this suit. "Malice" will have to be proven and as everyone knows...Dems/Libs and the MSM NEVER have malice in mind when they do anything. All the cards are stacked against Covington and a liberal judge will "take the pot"!

The one thing that is constant about the Dems/Libs/MSM is that they stick together no matter how wrong they are. That is the only reason they have fared so well thus far in their condemnation of all things Trump!

I'm pretty sure watching this Atty. that the jury trial will be held in the kids home state. That will be a slam dunk.

Aw come on Jim, even those with minimal intellect knows FOX is 'fair and balanced' with the plethora of libs they have as contributors. Of course, even you would know this if you broadened your viewing and actually watched FOX, rather than l*****t propaganda emanating from f**e news sites like CNN, MessNBC & Politicus.

It's a good bet that this lawsuit will be filed in the same Kentucky district court

(Well outside of the jurisdiction of the 9th Circus Court)

where a similar lawsuit has already been filed against the WP, also for $250 million.

If the Covington kids not been wearing MAGA hats, would this event have ever been reported?

Proving that their attack on Sandman was based on his support for President Trump,

with both malice and aforethought, should not be difficult.
