Washington Post settles $250M suit with Covington teen Nick Sandmann
4.完整新闻内文:
The Washington Post on Friday agreed to settle a monster $250 million lawsuit
filed by Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann over its
botched coverage of his 2019 encounter with a Native American elder.
Sandmann declared the victory in a tweet on his 18th birthday. It’s unclear
how much the newspaper settled for.
“On 2/19/19, I filed $250M defamation lawsuit against Washington Post.
Today, I turned 18 & WaPo settled my lawsuit,” he wrote.
“Thanks to @ToddMcMurtry & @LLinWood for their advocacy. Thanks to my family
& millions of you who have stood your ground by supporting me. I still have
more to do,” he continued.
It’s the teen’s second win in a whopping $800 million defamation battle
against a number of news outlets including the Washington Post, CNN, ABC,
CBS, The Guardian, The Hill and NBC.
CNN agreed to settle with Sandmann in January this year as part of a separate
$275 million claim.
Sandmann and a group of his Covington classmates were vilified on social
media after they were filmed wearing “Make America Great Again” hats after
an anti-abortion rally while being yelled at by demonstrators.

encounter.
Sandmann, then 16, was singled out after footage of his confrontation with
Native American activist Nathan Phillips was picked up by CNN and other
outlets who claimed the incident was racially motivated.
Footage released later showed it was the Covington students who were being
harassed.
In a subsequent tweet Friday, Sandmann fired a warning shot at Twitter CEO
Jack Dorsey.
“We have settled with WAPO and CNN. The fight isn’t over. 2 down. 6 to go.
Don’t hold your breath @jack,” he wrote.
翻译不好大家可以自己去看.
大意就是去年初有一班高中生放假没事去参加了反堕胎游行, 然后遇到也是在附近倡议原
住民活动的老人家起了冲突, 然后被一堆新闻写成了这些小屁孩对原民老人种族歧视引起
很大的争议. 但是其实从很多影片可以看到是老人家自己7pupu在搞事,高中生什么都没做
让他骂爽 (感觉在台湾也似曾相似). 但因为是CNN, Washington Post, ABC, CBS, The
Guardian, The Hill, NBC这些大媒体单方面在报导, 所以变成高中生和家人们被误解和
背负舆论压力.
所以他们最后就告了这些好棒棒做假新闻的媒体们8亿镁 (谁还跟你买威力彩), 然后现在
华邮的2.5亿诉讼和解了 (先前CNN也和解了2.75亿镁), 剩其他的六间挫咧但.
