After Suing CNN, Sandmann’s Legal Team Now Targeting Bill Maher, Kathy Griffin, HBO, NBC and AP
Star Political ^ | March 13, 2019 | Staff

Posted on 03/13/2019 10:23:12 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Nick Sandmann’s high profile legal team announced Tuesday night they are planning to file a suit every few weeks or month and have at least 10 major targets.

According to Axios, CNN became the second news outlet sued by Nicholas Sandmann’s representatives over their coverage of his January encounter with a Native American elder in Washington, D.C. and the Covington Catholic student’s lawyer told Fox News’ “The Story with Martha MacCallum” Tuesday night they plan to file more lawsuits.

“We plan to file a suit every few weeks or month,” McMurthy told MacCallum Tuesday night. “At least 10 top targets in the media and individuals … Certainly we’re looking very closely at NBC, we’re looking very closely at AP, we’re looking very closely at HBO for the conduct of Bill Maher, and we’re looking at some of the people like Kathy Griffin who sent out these horrible tweets that are called doxing.”

Sandmann’s legal team is headed by high profile attorney L. Lin Wood and McMurthy’s statements last night seem to follow in step with Woods previous statements just 1 week ago regarding Maher:

In a recent interview Wood stated:

“Well, certainly CNN and Bill Maher did things that we consider to have crossed the line. We think the statements they made are defamatory. They’re not humorous,” Wood said. “So certainly Bill Maher is somebody that we’re looking at very carefully, and HBO, for allowing him to make those defamatory statements.”

To understand the depth of the suits, watch as Wood Tells Mark Levin exactly why his team is suing CNN and others.

I hope they get buried under these judgments.

This just might be a way to break the Ministry of Propaganda.

I suspect Griffin and Maher will fold and settle like cheap suits.

Neither has the chops to win that fight.

The Keystone is Media Matters which leads directly to Michelle Obama and VJ’s database of SJW contacts

Nick, you've become the Nathan Hale of our time.

Please learn that and live up to it.

The history books are forced to put you IN 'em, now.

The fabricated story line against you and the resulting exposure has targetted EVERY outlet we Conservatives have been decrying for a long, long time.

THANK YOU TO WHOEVER GOT YOUR LAWYERS.

Assuming there is no out of court settlement how long before L. Lin Wood is grilling these pukes in a courtroom?

This is the only hope the people have to hold the media accountable.

It used to be the free press.... it’s turned into the gossip peddling media.

They believe they are free from scrutiny, and can print whatever.... NOT since they sold out in the news reporting and are now just going after anyone.

We have a LOT of individuals in our country who have set up a chain of elite vs the rest of us. Just this week, some of those self appointed elite are being shown for who they are!

“I suspect Griffin and Maher will fold and settle like cheap suits.”

A cheap win for both. If they settle, they will never have to admit guilt.

Who’d have thought Samantha C***’s handlers would be the smart ones this time around...

If the Lawyer sues too many they risk discounting their own claims. When everyone is guilty, nobody is guilty.

how about suing Twitter for allowing all the so-called “celebrities” to defame and even threaten these kids?

You can’t make this shit up...

Nobody would have guessed 6 months ago we’d right now be looking at a high school kid who just might have the solid evidence it takes to bring down the effin creeps who have been lying to the public for many years, and especially lies concerning the present political climate.

And all he did was stand there with that stupid looking grin on his face...

I love it...nothing Trump could have done would do what this kid can now do, by simply standing there and letting someone else be a dumbass...and I’m pretty sure Trump would have found a way to bring the MSM down if this hadn’t happened...he’s been trying to set it up since the day he announced he was running.

But what are the chances they would do something like this to play right into his hands, and prove what he’s been saying all along?

It just don’t get better than this folks...this high school kid is going to do what the most badass President we’ve ever had was having a lot of trouble trying to set up...by just standing there...

Hit Kathy Griffin hard. She just bought a house for $10.5m cash.

No one has said yet what the price might be for Maher and Griffin. My humble guess is a minimum of 10-million each. They might go and hope to settle for 1-million each, but Sandmann’s case against CNN and WaPo goes successfully...there’s not going to be any settlement effort. Neither Maher or Griffin can afford to lose this....it’d mean that others could also go into court and sue them.

“I suspect Griffin and Maher will fold and settle like cheap suits.”

They will probably require a non-disclosure agreement of settlement terms. Nick Sandmann’s lawyers shouldn’t go for that....these people wanna be famous? I say let’s make ‘em.
