A reporter broke confidentiality to hint that they paid him the nuisance fee to go away which is around 25k. His lawyer is now pissed because the other outlets will now know this and try and settle for the same amount.

I imagine the conversation sort of went like "You might have a case, but it'll take you years and hundreds of thousands of dollars. Take this payment for your legal fees and you can pretend you won, but leave us alone"

Of course now Brian Stelter probably fucked his career, and himself might be liable for a breach of contract suit, but that's another story.

Well now...25k is peanuts and signals a not very strong case. 250 mill was ridiculous though. Just give him a few hundred thousands for pr sake.

On the flip side, the whole incident basically guaranteed he's going to be a "notable" figure on the right-wing for years to come.

But it's okay, because now CNN knows that if they take footage and intentionally doctor it to completely change the context of what's going on, and then use it to get massive ratings while potentially ruining a child's life, that they can just ride out the lawsuit for a few years and settle for chump change.

I'm sure no news network will ever take advantage of this knowledge to do any harm.

Lol, Stelter wouldn't even know something like this. He's a reporter. Highly doubt he was involved with the CNN lawyers.

So he was just retweeting a lawyer saying that's how much those cases usually are settled for.

Not sure why everyone is saying he only got 25k. Some nobody tweeted it as a joke "I'd guess 25k".

Here's from the article:

"This followed the multimillion dollar settlement agreement CNN reached with the teenager back in January."

There's no proof that settlement was in the "multimillion dollar" range, either
