A portion will go on. 30 of the statements still kicked out. They are looking into 3 statements.

First amendment will win out.

He's now saying that WaPo's reporting that he blocked Phillip's way was defamatory.  Does that make any sense?  [/quote]

Yes, it does. A major newspaper lied about what they could clearly see on video.[/quote]

The video clearly shows that the boy stood in front of Phillips. Truth is a defense to defamation.  [/quote]

Or if you stand on the other side, Philips is standing in front of the boy. [/quote]

So they're blocking each other.

Is Wood going to sue me for defamation too?[/quote]

He would have a case if anyone cared what you wrote. [/quote]

Truth is a defense to defamation.  [/quote]

But, not in this case, because the "truth" was actually a bunch of lies.[/quote]

They blocked each other's way.

That's not a bunch of lies.[/quote]

Phillips said he was not allowed to retreat - a lie.  BTW, how could Sandmann be blocking him from approaching the Lincoln Memorial and also be preventing him from retreating?
It was reported that the students were mocking and jeering the Native Americans - a lie
Phillips said that the students were "attacking these four black individuals" - a lie
It was reported that the students were chanting "build that wall" - a lie

And on and on and on....
