Most, if not all, are seniors in high school, so we shouldn’t be calling them kids. They’re damn near full grown 17, 18, and 19 year olds.

Do you have supporting evidence that they were mostly seniors? They didn't look like seniors to me, at least a lot of them.

There was only one 19 year old in my senior class. A real idiot that got held back a year or two. 18 year olds were pretty hard to come by too. 17 would be the likely high end.

Maybe they've changed the age cut off months to start taking in young children into school so they're older when they graduate now. I haven't been in school for 20 years, so I'm not going to rely on past experience to argue that.

All I can say is none of those kids looked like adults to me in the video.

The title remains a jarring application of Fake News lying, Spin. No sensible person imagines that the old instigator/Agitator/Activist was mobbed by anybody. Although the kids were mobbed by many, and assaulted by the old asshat, the title of this thread advances a pretext that the kids were at fault somehow.
As if the reverse logic of RF infected the thread title.

Ok, there is another video out there with "the truth" about what happened. Extended video and commentary says that these kids were waiting for their bus when the native group approached them, and video seems to support it because the kids are more or less bunched up on stairs steps and the man beating the drum with a few other people are seen walking TOWARDS the kids. According to the commentary, the kids COULDN'T back up because there were stairs and other kids behind them. Also, according to this "the truth" video, the man beating the drum says "Go back to Europe where you came from". The boys are anxious to go home and are chanting "Let's go home".

I guess any event can be made to look like anything, if you choose the right bits and pieces to show. I don't know what happened here, but in this day and age there are probably several videos from several people which cover the "before" and "after" as well as the few minutes that are shown over and over, maybe they can put together a coherent story.

I think I would evaluate whatever comes up on the basis of "who approached who first". There was an incident where a man watching a parade accused a parade marcher of assault, and yet you can clearly see the man watching the parade launch himself off the curb and into the parade so ...??

My guess is that, in the grand scheme of things, $250 million is small potatoes to these giant enterprises and that they would be willing to settle out of court without admitting to any wrongdoing, and that the Sandemann family will become very wealthy indeed.

Unless the family wants to go to a jury trial.

as for the kids with the Maga hat, who knows?
a Lawsuit? Maybe they won't have to ever work again for the rest of their life

Anna Merlan (blue tick), reporter for Gizmodo and Jezebel: Blatantly lied about what the kids said and called for them to be attacked. - Since deleted her Tweet but continues to blame the innocent kids Since deleted her Tweet but continues to blame the innocent kids

Jennifer Bendery (blue tick), Senior political writer for The Huffington Post: After objective video evidence refutes the claims and proved the kids innocence, while posting a detailed factual account from a student, she not just dismisses the idea we should hear out their side but libels the students by repeating knowingly false lies about them.

Reza Aslan (blue tick), journalist/writer: Without a hint of irony - "I guess all the kids in MAGA hats shouting 'build that wall' was just my imagination." In response to objective video evidence literally proving the kids he's attacking never said that. Yes Reza, it's quite literally in your imagination.

Jack Morrissey (blue tick), Disney producer: Openly advocated murdering school children with a wood chipper because they were harassed by leftist activists after video refuted the claims and proved the boys innocent. Deleted Tweet and set account to private.

WOOD CHIPPER?

https://twitter.com/sam_vinograd/status/1087075380526231552

Sam Vinograd (blue tick), CNN National Security Analyst: After the story has been thoroughly refuted, after the school itself declared the kids innocent, in reply to the full video refuting her idiocy...she kept lying and attacking the high school students.

Maggie Haberman (blue tick), NYT White House Correspondent and CNN analyst: Knowingly lied about the kids and proceeded to encourage their expulsion for being harassed by left wing idiots.

Wood Chippers? http://archive.fo/ZgXXd

Alyssa Milano (blue tick), failed C-List actress: After knowing the story was completely refuted, declares that high school children being publicly socially lynched are effectively Klan members.

Jodi Jacobson (blue tick), Editor in Chief of 'ReWire News': After video evidence refuted their narrative and proved the kids innocence, goes on a disgusting libelous rant blatantly lying about the students. Full blown lawsuit worthy. I mean flat out lies and claims shit all video evidence counters. Hope she's sued into the ground.

Rep. John Yarmuth (blue tick), Democrat: Openly advocated for banning MAGA hats, illegally violating the first amendment, over children being harassed while admitting he doesn't know all the facts yet. This was after video footage proved the boys innocence. When he got called out he backpedaled and attacked Trump supporters.

Andy Ostroy (blue tick), Huffington Post writer: After knowing the claims were false and video evidence defends the boys, libels the high school students and not only declares them racist for things they never did but justifies the black racists who were shouting racist and homophobic slurs as the kids.

Jim Heath (blue tick), Cronkite and Emmy award winning broadcaster: Full DARVO. Not only ignores the video proves the students didn't do anything but has the absolute assholeness to claim that it's the kids deflecting after being caught out and that it's Trumps fault they refuse to apologize.
https://twitter.com/jbendery/status/1087156287643762690
Eugene Gu (blue tick), fired medical researcher and accused of assault of his ex-girlfriend, famous for being blocked by Trump on Twitter: After video proves the students were innocent and were in fact the ones being harassed by the SJW activists, declares children to be bigots. Hilariously tries to virtue signal for Native Americans by defending Fauxahontas.

Richard Stengel (blue tick), Political analyst for MSNBC: After the entire leftist narrative has been thoroughly refuted, after video proves the students didn't do anything wrong, comes out attacking the kids and calling them bigots. Blames Trump while declaring these boys toxic.
https://twitter.com/annamerlan/status/1086700245151555586
Bill Bratton (blue tick), Commissioner of the New York City Police Department: A fucking POLICE COMMISSIONER for NYC jumps in after overwhelming objective video evidence proves these young students did absolutely nothing wrong and not only insults children, calls them "privileged" and demands they be expelled but does this in the face of these kids having racist and homophobic slurs thrown at them while they get harassed by activists. This is how he acts over proven innocent teens who weren't even accused of a crime just because they're right of Mao, imagine what he does to the due process of conservatives actually facing trial.

This lawsuit needs to be successful in the name of journalistic integrity.

That story was presented by NYT, WaPo, CNN and others as FACT.

But afterward everybody wants to claim that it was just "opinions" to avoid legal repercussions for not fact checking and/or getting caught straight up lying for an agenda?

Well... What the fuck then? That means that every single piece of news that we read from any source is nothing more than an opinion piece.



It's in the best interests of every American that these court cases are won, and that the Legacy Media organizations are hit HARD with penalties over this. Otherwise the precedent is being set for Media to have a clear path to lie about everything under the sun without any worries of fallout from that choice.
