Why wasn’t the Covington kid’s settlement with CNN reported by YWN?
If it was suppressed, how do you know about it?
Maybe because the amount of the settlement was not announced.
There is nothing really “newsworthy about a confidential settlement between the Covington student (Sandmann) and CNN with no details offered by either side. More interesting (legally) is a nasty fight between the lawyer representing Sandmann and Robert Barnes, the lawyer for other students involved in the incident who is also known for representing conspiracy theory nutcase Alex Jones from InfoWars.
Apparently, Barnes offered to represent the other (anonymous) students in filing new lawsuits t on behalf of those Covington students against various political figures and media outlets claiming defamation and seeking big dollar damages. Sandmann’s lawyer, in turn, is claiming that Barnes is implying he is representing Sandmann along with these other students and exploiting Sanmann’s name in his yet-to-be filed litigation. Sandmann has accused Barnes of “lying to the public: by implying that he is representing him in the new litigation and demanded he stop making such claims. Say tuned.Nothing on Yeshiva World News is ever ———–CENSORED————;)
“Censored” is different from “suppressed”.
