Time to pay the piper - make it hurt

| No Comments

The media is going to be paying out a lot of money in the next year or two. First, Nathan Phillips and now Kyle.
From FOX News:

Kyle Rittenhouse warns 'media accountability coming soon'
The media could be facing big consequences for the way it covered Kyle Rittenhouse's trial, the 18-year-old indicated on Monday.

"There's going to be some media accountability coming soon," Rittenhouse told Fox News during an interview.

Fox News had asked him whether he thought a trend was developing in which the media was starting to face consequences for its coverage of people like him and Nick Sandmann. Sandmann recently settled with a major network over its coverage of his viral confrontation with protester Nathan Phillips at the Lincoln Memorial in 2019.

"Good for him," Rittenhouse said when asked about the settlement.

Rittenhouse's comments came just after he received cheers and applause at the AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona. He hasn't announced any lawsuits against heavyweights like CNN, which also reached a settlement with Sandmann.

Good.  Sandmann's defamation suits were settled out of court but they were asking in the $250 million range for each outlet (WaPo, CNN, ABC, CBS, NYT, Rolling Stone and Gannett) so Nick is coming out very nicely indeed.
