Nick Sandmann Settlement Prediction Thread
Posted on 2/19/19 at 6:07 pm

Lin Wood sued WaPo today on behalf of his client. Courtesy of myself and boosiebadazz, let's get this thread started. In coming to my amount, I figured the cost of litigation for WaPo in this case will be massive and, more importantly, could reinforce Trump's fake news narrative once discovery begins, especially if embarrassing items are discovered about their fact checking and investigation, or lack thereof. My number is $10 million with an NDA. Over or under?

Zero. There is no loss to the kid's income or potential income bc of the incident.

Sounds about right, tbh

Over. Wood has the track record and resources to take this case all the way to SCOTUS if necessary. People will tout Bezos’ net worth, but he’s not going to somehow bankrupt or spend Wood’s team into quitting.

No one will ever know, per the settlement.

One doesn’t sue for $250 million and settle for $10 million.
The richest man on Earth owns the Post.
I’m going $50 mil.
A lot depends on Bezos. He might get salty based on what happened with The Inquirer but the go away price may be $50 mil.

So.....you are going the detached from reality route, huh?

The Post wants this to go away. Wouldn't be shocking if they offered a favorable settlement so this ends quickly.
Edit to add: I don't know enough about similar settlements to render an informed opinion on amount

$40 mill to the Sandman + 20% for attorney's fees.

35.0 Million
That was too easy.

How delicious would it be if a 13yo kid from Kentucky is the one to shut down the Washington Post?

The WaPo will spend a lot of money trying to fight discovery. Once a judge/appellate court rules that all of their emails, internal correspondence, and other data that shows their deliberate bias must be turned over, they'll pay at least $50 million so that they don't have to turn over any of that information.

you dont settle lawsuits for 98% less then the ask
if there is a settlement he gets a full $200 million and they pay his lawyers on top of it
then its on to the next liberal trash with a suit and likely settlement of equal % size of the ask
