Nick Sandmann's attorney,Lin Wood, reveals lawsuit against CNN

CNN to be sued for more than $250M over 'vicious' and 'direct attacks' on Covington student: lawyer

“CNN was probably more vicious in its direct attacks on Nicholas than The Washington Post. And CNN goes into millions of individuals' homes,” Wood told


“They really went after Nicholas with the idea that he was part of a mob that was attacking the Black Hebrew Israelites, yelling racist slurs at the Black Hebrew Israelites. Totally false.
“Now you say you've seen the tape; if you took the time to look at the full context of what happened that day, Nicholas Sandmann did absolutely nothing wrong. He was, as I've said to others, he was the only adult in the room. But you have a situation where CNN couldn't resist the idea that here's a guy with a young boy, that Make America Great Again cap on. So they go after him.”
Wood continued: “The CNN folks were online on Twitter at 7 a.m retweeting the little one-minute propaganda piece that had been put out. … They're out there right away going after this young boy. And they maintain it for at least two days. Why didn't they stop and just take an hour and look through the Internet and find the truth and then report it? Maybe do that before you report the lies.”
Wow. Maybe that will teach them to go along with a story without checking the facts? But it probably won’t. There are plenty of examples where they show their bias in the way they report, this is just one of the few times where the victims have been courageous enough to really hit back for once. Good for them!

  1. Predictably, CNN--that gutless excuse for a news channel, has NOTHING on this lawsuit on its website! So typical--they like to dish it out but when someone pushes back, they go hide (likely in the gutter that they obviously feel so at home in).

"I think putting together a polished show can be very important."
