Except for libel the burden of proof falls to the kid to prove, "malicious intent." Good luck with that.
Any news group that reported the incident falsely or corroborated a story other than what happened can be sued for Libel. I believe that is the angle they are going for here and why any emails about the story from the beginning shouldn't be deleted?
Being sued is one thing. Winning is another. And if successful, wouldn't it then open the door to all the Faux News, National Enquirer, Brietbart, etc., being sued for the nonsense they "report" on?
It isn't just bad reporting, it's bad reporting that resulted in a singling out a high school kid to the point where he got death threats. As much as you may not like Fox, I con't think of a single story where they hammered down on a single individual, who was a minor, to the point where he/she was getting harassed and death threats. But that is exactly what these news stories did, and much of what they reported on about the incident for days wasn't even true. I would like to see any news agency held accountable for things like that. I'm sure there is some law a fancy lawyer could argue about negligence resulting in harm or something.
You forgot David Hogg that fast??
Exactly what I was thinking. They were relentless with him, and thise kids went through a huge trauma and weren’t in the spotlight for being entitled smug jag-offs.

You’re right, he was unnecessarily targeted as well.

Oh please, don’t act like the MAGA hat wearer was the first victim of media bashing or a victim of death threats as a result of media. Go look up the murdered abortion doctors and the relentless right wing media attacks that contributed to their deaths.
Never said he was the first. Never said it didn’t happen, just didn’t remember it happening to a high school kid. I was proved wrong on that above. Still doesn’t change the fact I believe there should be a limit to freedom of the press where kids aren’t impacted like this.
Spray tan? Didn't the White House say it was good genes?
Jaundice? Does he live exclusively off carrots and sweet potatoes? Lol
Here's the thing, they make spray tans that look so much better than that. It doesn't look natural, that's for sure, but I don't think it is a spray tan either.
I actually knew a guy who ate so many carrots he turned orange. No joke. For some reason he just decided when he was younger that he loved carrots SO much, he was eating pounds of them a day, lol, like some kind of food obsession. He fully turned orange, which is when his parents put a stop to it.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

My arms looked that color after I sprayed sealant on my fence...Maybe he seals a lot of fences? Lol

It was in reaction to what the Black Israelites were saying.
I will say that how that snippet of a clip was used was way off base.

I saw Tiffany at the SOTU and my first thought was : "oh yeah, she exists too"
