CNN SETTLES PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN YOUNG v. CNN DEFAMATION CASE

CNN knew that they were completely fucked in their latest defamation case, brought by Zachary Young, and have now come to a settlement with Mr Young. The jury was working on what they would give to Mr. Young for punitive damages, and CNN knew it was going to be a very large award, so they took it out of the jury’s hands by settling with Young.

The fat that CNN settled means that we may never really know the total amount of money that CNN was penalized in punitive damages, which really sucks, because that would be good to know. I’m guessing that the punitive damage settlement was somewhere around $300 Million.

It’s funny to go over to CNN.com and read their story on CNN losing the defamation case. It’s very short.. only 2 lines. I’ll post it here.

New York – CNN
A jury in Florida has found CNN liable for defaming a US Navy veteran in a 2021 segment on Afghanistan that included him.

The jury awarded the veteran, Zachary Young, $5 million on Friday and will next decide possible punitive damages. The two-week trial was held in Bay County, Florida.

That’s it! That is all CNN had to say about their huge loss in court, which will now open the floodgates for other cases!
