According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), "Some, but not all [sects of the Black Hebrew Israelites], are outspoken anti-Semites and racists."[11] As of December 2019, the Southern Poverty Law Center "lists 144 Black Hebrew Israelite organizations as black separatist hate groups because of their antisemitic and anti-white beliefs."

It should teach them not to lie. But since its part of their core, it won't.
Show me one single bit of evidence that they lied about anything... I challenge ya!
They simply showed footage of Sandmann arrogantly going toe to toe with some harmless old dude, because he was upset about being dissed by a couple of black fanatical religious dudes... lol.
Admittedly, it was just as pathetic for a self proclaimed reputable news network to waste anytime on such a petty nothing story. But still, it doesn't change how he clearly behaved in the situation.
Either way, I highly doubt the settlement amount was anything to brag about... when compared to what he was asking for.
Imagine defending a multi-million dollar corporation for slandering a minor, seek some help buddy
I'm not defending CNN and to be totally honest, I wouldn't lose any sleep if he took them for the full 260 million... it's the denial of reality because it contradicts peoples political ideology that I've got an issue with.
Why not just say it was completely unethical to broadcast footage of a minor with a bad attitude for days on end and just leave it at that?
Why sink even further than CNN did, by denying it happened the way it clearly did and then using that denial of reality to justify your own political ideology?
The hypocrisy is blatant.

Yeah nah, I'm not going analyze the kids behavior any more than I already have. It's true that it was ridiculously petty for the MSM to make such a big deal about it (or even cover the story in the first place) and the only reason they did, is obviously because of the MAGA hat...in other words, it was totally politically motivated.
But that doesn't change the fact that one individual in that footage had a serious lack of respect for his elders... He should have just cleared a path and let the old man past.
He got paid millions

I highly doubt this settlement hurt CNN's bottom line or made that arrogant little turd rich.
As was pointed out in the closed thread... for all we know the settlement could have just been for attorney fees and an apology.
