Democrats and media conglomerates obviously learned nothing from getting slapped around by Nick Sandmann’s lawyers. Maybe a second drubbing will teach them some humility.
In the summer of 2020, the media gave every excuse they could think of as a defense of those who burned and destroyed their way through cities around the country following the death of George Floyd. They even went out of their way to NOT report on the violence (which sometimes included murder) that went along with these riots.
But when video emerged of one young man being chased by some of those ‘protesters’ and defending his life from several aggressors, the media decided that THIS is the story they want to highlight.
They squeezed him into almost the same narrative that they had squeezed another teenager into, a young man by the name of Nick Sandmann.
He was painted as, well, a whole variety of things ranging from a bigot to a vigilante, and the list of his accusers goes all the way to the current occupant of the White House.
They made the very same mistake they did with Sandmann, not to mention the phantom ‘MAGA’ attackers in the Jussie Smollett hoax. They believed the worst about the people they disliked while willfully ignoring the sins of those on their own side… and acted according to those wrong assumptions.
Famously, Kyle was found ‘not guilty’ on all charges in a court of law. But obviously, this is America, not Stalin’s Russia. Not guilty is the default any American is entitled to unless and until he is convicted of a crime.
Big media players did NOT give him the benefit of that doubt. It sure seems like an open-and-shut example of defamation.
And it might just happen that he’s coming for those who so callously tried to destroy him.
The hint he gave here:
“There’s going to be some media accountability coming soon,” Rittenhouse told Fox News during an interview. —FoxNews
Took on much stronger implications here.

Appearing as part of a panel alongside Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, Rittenhouse also acknowledged that he has spoken with Nicholas Sandmann, the Covington Catholic graduate who recently reached a settlement with NBC Universal in a suit over its portrayal of his confrontation with a Native American man in 2019.
“[Sandmann] would know a thing or two about suing a media company, that’s for sure,” Kirk said.

If he takes them on and wins? He’s going to have to get used to walk-ons like this one.

Also, he’d be set for life.
Maybe he and Sandmann could pool their resources and build a media empire. One that is actually built on real reporting and integrity.
If Rittenhouse wins, it might even open the floodgates for a whole lot of other people the press has maligned for power and profit.
Losing a string of defamation suites might even be enough to make these amoral clowns think twice about their slander-and-defame brand of ‘reporting’.
Kyle isn’t being given a hero’s welcome for killing some people.
He’s being hailed as a hero because he was thrown to the wolves by the press, certain clowns from the NBA, politicians, and a justice system that tried to rig the game against him. He stood his ground, faced his accusers, took down their accusations one by one, and left with his dignity intact.
THAT is what we respect. He took on a dishonest system and a rigged game, and he BEAT them anyway.
Kyle didn’t go looking for someone to kill, like they claimed. He doesn’t even consider the actions ‘heroic’. The taking of any life is regrettable… but it is still better than becoming a statistic.
At the end of the day the math is simple, and a jury of his peers was able to sort it out: self-defense is not a crime.

Check out ClashRadio for more wit and wisdom from ClashDaily’s Big Dawg. While you’re at it, here’s his latest book:
If Masculinity Is ‘Toxic’, Call Jesus Radioactive
Much of the Left loathes masculinity and they love to paint Jesus as a non-offensive bearded woman who endorses their agenda. This book blows that nonsense all to hell. From the stonking laptop of bestselling author, Doug Giles, comes a new book that focuses on Jesus’ overt masculine traits like no other books have heretofore. It’s informative, bold, hilarious, and scary. Giles has concluded, after many years of scouring the scripture that, If Masculinity Is ‘Toxic’, Call Jesus Radioactive.
