On Friday, Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann took to social media to announce that he settled a defamation lawsuit against NBC. The lawsuit was originally for $275 million.
Sandmann said in his tweet that the terms are confidential.
Even though neither party announced the terms of the settlement, we do know that Sandmann asked for $275 million in damages in his suit against NBC Universal and the conspiracy network MSNBC.
“At this time I would like to release that NBC and I have reached a settlement. The terms are confidential.”

Leftist news media outlets attacked Sandmann after he and his classmates were waiting for a bus to take them back to their school after spending the day supporting the Pro-Life movement’s March for Life and they were being assaulted with racial epithets by a black supremacist group known as the Black Hebrew Israelites. While that was going on, a Native American activist known as Nathan Phillips, out of the blue, began pounding on a drum while moving into Sandmann’s personal space. Phillips kept a straight face and continued to pound on the drum in Sandmann’s face.
For his part, Sandmann looked very uncomfortable, like he didn’t exactly know what to do so he just stood there smiling at Phillips. So, after being hit with racial slurs by a black supremacist group, Sandmann had to endure a guy pounding a drum in his face. And he endured it in stride. He never uttered a word to Phillips.
That didn’t stop the mainstream news media from attacking Sandmann, a minor at the time, all because he wore a red Make America Great Again baseball cap while smiling politely at the lunatic pounding the drum in his face trying to get a reaction out of him.
NBC is the 3rd media network that has settled with Sandmann. On a side note, you would think these networks would have learned not to go after minors because it’s illegal to do so, but the wokety woke woke leftists on Fake News cable networks never learned their lesson as they attacked Kyle Rittenhouse who was accused of murdering two men and wounding a third. He was later found Not Guilty on all charges as the jury understand, like everyone else in the world except the dopey Fake News hosts, Rittenhouse was defending himself and that’s still allowed in America, much to the Fake News media’s chagrin. The same people attacked Rittenhouse wrongly when he was only 17-years-old.
As for Sandmann, the untrustworthy, misinformation poets on MSNBC, CNN, and other networks called him a racist, a white supremacist and other vile things while on the air. Some called for him to be expelled, even charged with a crime. What crime?
Quite frankly, I had to do some deep investigating back when they started attacking Sandmann, because apparently the video I saw of the entire incident did not show Sandmann doing anything that rose to the level of vitriolic hatred the media held for him. I thought I must have missed something and felt stupid for being behind the loop. The media couldn’t possibly say the things they were saying about a minor if they weren’t true. But then I came to the conclusion that the media people really are that stupid. They tried to gaslight America against Sandmann even though there wasn’t an ounce of evidence to back them up. In fact, the video they kept showing on the respective networks exonerated Sandmann more than anything else.
Some in the news said the Catholic school kids started chanting “Build the wall,” but after an investigation, it was concluded that the Covington kids made no racist statements or chanted “Build the wall.” They made those claims because, like everything else, these activists who claim to be journalists do, they went with their own pre-conceived notions instead of digging for the facts. And now, it’s cost them dearly.
The Diocese of Covington retained Greater Cincinnati Investigation Inc. to look into the incident, and after a more complete video of the incident turned up, it became clear that Phillips was the one who approached the boys and began beating his drum just inches from Sandmann’s face.
