[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^ And the WaPo should face consequences when they lie.  But if you read the bulletproof opinion, the WaPo didn’t lie.  Nick Samdman is free to go after Nathan Phillips if he feels he can. Or Twitter. But factually accurate reporting from the WaPo not the problem here.  And aim not sure how the WaPo reporting was different from the NYT or the WSJ.

PP— it likely that these case were consolidated before the same Judge in the interest of judicial efficiency. The WaPo suit was filed first and was stronger, to build momentum.  Expect the CNN decision to be dismissed as well. But give it a few weeks, because the Judge is writing really thorough decisions.

I expect Rule 11 sanctions against the attorney here. This was an incredible waste of a Court time and resources to make a political statement.

And do you expect any decent college in the country to admit this kid after this?  They will end up getting sued the second week he is on campus for something frivolous. He’s looking at a non-flagship states school or Liberty.   This isn’t Cameron Whatshisface from Parkland. Harvard will want no part of this. [/quote]

I belief they just finished briefing the motion to dismiss in the CNN case.  Oral arguments will probably be August or September, with a ruling a few weeks after that.  I think the motion to dismiss was either just filed or in about to be filed in the NBC case, so I wouldn’t expect a ruling in that case until maybe November.[/quote]
