Video at the link for those who can stomach Concha. ?? Why do those media outlets he named have "quotation marks"?Fox News contributor Joe Concha weighs in on a district court judge throwing out five media libel lawsuits by former Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann on "Hannity."
JOE CONCHA: But you're right, given the precedent here, what we saw with "The Washington Post" and "CNN" settling out of court for, remember those are $250M lawsuits against those organizations, it's interesting that this judge who was appointed by Jimmy Carter, by the way, clearly on the back nine at this point, decides to throw these suits out. And you think about the way "The New York Times" or "Rolling Stone" or these other outlets reported on Sandmann, painting him as the, basically the face of teenage racism. You know, it was no different than the way "CNN" or "The Washington Post" did, and it's hard not to see this ruling as anything other than politically motivated because "CNN" or "The Washington Post," you know, they have plenty of legal resources, and they knew that it was in their best interest to settle because they're on the losing side of this argument," based on what you mentioned before, the video evidence that anybody could see at home.

Whatta maroon. CNN and WaPo (and NBC, I believe) settled because they decided throwing a couple million at Sandmann was cheaper than fighting the lawsuit for years. And now the already announced appeal equals more years.Kendra wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 10:16 am https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/feder ... ba34fe4107

Those three entities did settle, but the amount is confidential.raison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 11:39 amCNN and WaPo (and NBC, I believe) settled because they decided throwing a couple million at Sandmann was cheaper than fighting the lawsuit for years.
"Settled for millions" is a bit of a right-wing talk point.
Eggsactly: These non-settling defendants likely paid six figures to "win," and will likely pay six more to "win" on appeal.And now the already announced appeal equals more years.

Re: Fox News, Newsmax, OAN, and other TV purveyors of fake news
You are correct, that hasn’t been disclosed. And looking back, all I find are “law school professors” and whatnot estimating seven figures. I also find them estimating $50k. I thought I saw Sandmann say it was seven figures at some point, but I believe I was mistaken because I can’t find it now.bob wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 3:52 pmThose three entities did settle, but the amount is confidential.raison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Jul 28, 2022 11:39 amCNN and WaPo (and NBC, I believe) settled because they decided throwing a couple million at Sandmann was cheaper than fighting the lawsuit for years.

Jon Stewart has been trying to get on Fox News since this went down. He's succeeded.

I have Fox on at the moment to listen to. Pretty much all they're covering is Pelosi going to Taiwan. Seriously, it's like 99% of all their coverage at the moment.
Edit: Granted CNN is also covering the Pelosi & company plane land and all that stuff, Fox is covering this live. After all the hearings and stuff they didn't cover live

I was listening to Fox News yesterday afternoon, and they were all on about a) the Manchin plan is a huge tax hike on lower end (<$400k) taxpayers, and b) this is already on the back of a huge tax hike, as a 9.1% inflation rate is actually the same thing as a 9.1% tax hike.Kendra wrote: ↑Tue Aug 02, 2022 10:50 am I have Fox on at the moment to listen to.

Fox News doing big segment with video of first TX migrants getting the bus in NYC. Still haven't heard this week about Alex Jones, January 6 or nothing. Started the hour with CHINA CHINA CHINA.

Hannity starting now (for me). He promises among others Marco Rubio and Paul Manafort. Shades of a show

Yes, they went there. Short bit, but had to show shots of Hillary's But Her Emails hats and shirts and sniping about making money from this latest kerfuffle. I don't recall ever hearing them snipe about tfg's grifting ever.

Five minutes into Biden coughs too much and how that hurts the US optics to the world.
Now we’ve moved into how the FBI raid has “supercharged” tfg’s campaign.

Hope I can fall back asleep before the next segment, F&F First is going to have the Hunter laptop repairman on to talk about the discrepancies in the Justice Department
I'm only 30 minutes in and they've mentioned Hunter multiple times, the Biden lavish family vacation (oh, and Hunter's on the plane too! Horrors!). Outrage over the Mar a Lago "raid". Can't recall if they mentioned the NY State AG sit down and pleading the 5th multiple times.

Maybe I am checking in too early but F&F seems all wrong. Where are the lady legs? Isn't this supposed to be a strip club show? I haz confused. It is no longer a sex show?

I managed to stay awake for the laptop guy. Twice he stated why isn't the AG/DOJ doing anything about it and they've had it since 2019!!!
Not once did the hosts point out that Biden wasn't in charge in 2019 and 2020. During the interview Fox kept showing in sidebar photos of Biden family leaving for the family vacation. Seriously. Then they asked the laptop guy about his thoughts on the "raid" at MAL like he was some big legal expert or something.

Fox’s Doocy surprisingly presses Rep. Steve Scalise on FBI agents receiving death threats due to baseless GOP attacks over lawful Mar-a-Lago search.
Scalise: “It concerns everybody if you see some agents go rogue.”
Doocy: “Who went rogue? They were following a search warrant.”
Wow. Push back.“Steve, why not wait a week or so until we know more about this search warrant than immediately rush to judgment and say, ‘The FBI, they’re crazy.’”
What is happening today? Steve Doocy continues to press Rep. Steve Scalise about GOP criticism of the lawful Mar-a-Lago search.
