- A Kentucky teenager sued CNN on Tuesday for defamation, saying the cable network falsely conveyed to viewers that he was the"face of an unruly hate mob" confronting a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington in January.
In photos and videos that went viral from the incident, Sandmann is seen standing face to face with Native American activist Nathan Phillips. Sandmann stares and smiles at Phillips while Phillips sings and plays his drum. “The CNN accusations are totally and unequivocally false, and CNN would have known them to be untrue had it undertaken any reasonable efforts to verify their accuracy before publication," the complaint said.A private investigation firm commissioned by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Covington in Park Hills, Kentucky, to review the incident concluded last month that there was no evidence the students provoked a confrontation.

I hope he cleans their clock. Bout time somebody stood up to all this bulls$&t.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It wasn’t CNN. It was the kid’s shit-eating grin that did the trick
I hope CNN pays a heavy price for their partisan ways! fakenews karma
👍
In my opinion if you don’t want to get painted in a bad light, don’t do anything stupid.
Once again, the courts should not give this kid any court time whatsoever. Laugh in his face and tell him to go fuck himself before he gets in trouble.
Well deserved law suit. Hope the kid takes them to the cleaners.
God i love reading what ppl post that dont know what they are talking about. Lol!
Stupid kid
That boy impeded the movement of another person. He should have been arrested. Nut because of Trump's government shutdown there were no NP Rangers on duty.
The 'SMIRK' says it all. Next case.
No matter how you twist this...his smirk and stance...are rude.. That man was his elder, no respect...let his daddy sue...losers.
That pink kid isn't getting a dime
they just showed him in real time.
And I hope he gets millions from them. CNN is FakeNews
Good reason for me to watch CNN in addition to BBC. I get it on my Sling! I just can't stand this kid! Is that what they teach in parochial schools? Does CNN support apartheid Israel? If so I forget watching CNN!
CNN needs to apologize for trying to destroy his life, the child didn’t do anything wrong
The video does not lie. This kid twice blocked the Native American veteran and invaded his personal space as he mocked him. All the kid had to do was apologize and it would have been over. This will cost him a fortune and ensures it will follow him for the rest of his life.
