"And Nicholas Sandmann, the teenager at the heart of a viral controversy after his confrontation with a Native American elder in D.C. last year, took aim at "cancel culture."
"I wouldn't be canceled. I fought back hard to expose the media for what they did to me and won a personal victory."
At the end of the video, he donned a MAGA hat."

This kid is a punk who deserved all the flak he got and most of his classmates acted like punks, too.

Evidently MSM lawyers disagree and insurance companies chose to pay the nuisance value up.
Fixed it for ya. No one has any idea how much he actually received. There is reason to believe that he got something (high five figures, low six figures?) but no evidence of a lifestyle supported by seven figure settlements. None of the media companies he sued admitted wrongdoing. He's not some crusader who cares about exposing the MSM - if he were, he would have gone to trial and demanded a public retraction and apology.
It isn't a matter of how much he received. The media companies publicly paid. I don't have statistics, but it seems to me that media companies very rarely pay out in instances like these. They always lean on their freedom of the press. Yielding in this way says that they miscalculated their manipulation of the events. Paying up is the last thing in the world they want to do.
Do you have any evidence that the media companies publicly paid? Can you confirm that the lawsuits weren't tendered to their insurance providers and that the insurance providers made the settlements because they were cheaper than continuing to fight the suits? If this were a legitimate lawsuit with a high settlement value, the media companies and their insurers would have more incentive to fight back, but if they can settle a frivolous claim for $25k, why spend hundreds of thousands fighting?
They made an out-of-court settlement. Are you denying it? Do you think they paid off in Amazon gift cards?What difference is it if their insurance company paid on their behalf, which you have no proof of. You have no proof it was for 25k either. You're doing lots of postulating for God knows what reason.
The price they really paid--and it is extremely rare--is that they tacitly are admitting that they framed the story in a way that fit their narrative. For the MSM, that's a gut punch. No way to deny that.
The truth lies somewhere between CNN and Fox.
