The Lectern Guy Updates CNN's 'Capitol Siege' Story and Makes Their Already Bad Week Even Worse

Twitchy

CNN reached a settlement on Friday with a U.S. Navy veteran who helped evacuate people from Afghanistan after the U.S. military withdrew from the country in 2021, a judge said on Friday, hours after a jury found the TV news outlet liable for defaming him.

The six-person jury decided CNN had to pay damages totaling $5 million. The settlement will avert a second phase of the trial that would have determined any punitive damages. The verdict followed a two-week trial in Panama City, Florida, state court.

CNN might want to take a step back and worry about their own problems in the near future (which is being dishonest in reporting the news) instead of instinctively pushing the Dems' preferred narratives.
