This is wonderful.

In an interview that aired on Fox News Sunday night, lawyer L. Lin Wood said he is filing a lawsuit against CNN Monday or Tuesday for more than $250 million over the news outlet’s alleged “vicious” and “direct attacks” on his client, Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann. On Twitter Saturday, the lawyer suggested that the amount could be around $275 million.


Wood, an Atlanta-based attorney who specializes in aggressive defamation suits against the media, was hired by the Sandmanns to bring justice to Nick, whose name was dragged through the mud after a short video clip showing a confrontation between Native American activist Nathan Phillips and the Covington Catholic boys in Washington, D.C., went viral.

It’s long past time for conservatives… just regular Americans… to be taking the gloves off on this kind of nonsense.

I’m telling you point-blank that if this kind of lawsuit happened more often, the kind of attacks that we’ve been seeing on the beliefs of the majority of Americans, such as what we’ve been seeing not only at the Lincoln memorial with the Covington kids, but in every other aspect of life, wouldn’t be happening nearly as often. And certainly, that is desirable.

Can anyone, and I mean anyone, deny that what we saw on this particular affair was by definition, fake news, designed to support an agenda?
