Nick Sandmann sued da’ media, and with good reason. And while CNN and the Washington Post settled for undisclosed amounts, that very long list still has many names on it. Yesterday, NBC (motion to dismiss previously denied) found it itself in good company.

These media outlets lie every day, mostly by omission. But in this case, the lies were obvious and deliberate, and the response to those lies is what sealed the deal.
This news story is alleged to be false and defamatory. (Id.). Sandmann further alleges that this publication by defendant and similar stories by other news media caused him to be harassed by the public, causing him great emotional distress. (Compl. ¶¶ 25, 162-164, 251-257). Sandmann also alleges that defendant’s article “is now forever a part of the historical Internet record and will haunt and taint Nicholas for the remainder of his natural life and impugn his reputation for generations to come.” (Compl. ¶ 254).
Trump derangement syndrome has a price. At this point, only CNN and WaPo have paid it. But given that the media clone army regurgitated the same lies that cost those outlets millions, we’ve no reason to believe NBC, ABC, CBS, NYT, or Rolling Stone will come out any better.
Some may turn out worse. And we should hope for the worst.
The goal here was not to destroy Nick Sandmann. They cared very little for him. He was just a pawn on their chessboard. The move was meant to send a message to anyone who dared to support the president openly. To sell that support as inseparable from their racism and bigotry narratives. To proactively suppress your speech.
It happens often and in more subtle ways, but that is their job. The media is convinced that they are the smart, cool kids, and the Democrat Party exists to advance their progressive narrative. The Democrat party thinks they are the smart, cool kids and the media exists to advance their progressive narrative.
Everyone else is a knuckle-dragging peasant with a 90cc brain who is too stupid even to realize how they yearn to be ruled by this cabal of narcissistic ass-clowns.
The truth is that the only people who yearn for that are Democrats or people in the media who are so smart they are too stupid to realize that should they succeed, very few of them will have a seat at the table. The rest will need the knuckle-dragging peasants as allies.
