      They are shockers at times Eric. I listen to them all the time, I just take their synopsis with a LARGE grain of salt.

          1. How you got to that particular sum?
          2. Do you really expect him to pay it? Even if convinced and ordered by the court?

          I never got this with ridiculous sums asked as compensation from people who can't pay them.

            Where in the court case or Zimmerman's statements did he say wearing a hoodie made Martin suspicious?

              Every network that covered the case, online news agencies, and other venues will be sued by Zimmerman and his family and loose. That is a lot of money.

              All that editing of video where he got his nose broken and back of the head bashed in, lying about the phone call and other aspects of the case. See the problem they have is that they bet by lying on the case ending how they wanted, now that it hasn't not only have they lost credibility they also loose any possibility of winning a libel suit.

              My guess is there may not even be a civil suit and if there is one it will end before the libel suits.

              Zimmerman will most likely file for bankruptcy and pay nothing if he looses the civil case. The problem is that he may win it because he was assaulted and there was no way for him to run or do anything other than to shoot the dude doing the assaulting.

                Without context they are meaningless, or in the Beebs case deliberately misleading context.

                        Perturbing or protuding? I was camping with the kids and missed some of the trial.

                          Most wont be because as the press they acted in good faith and so are immune. NBC on the other hand is in deep pue-doo.

                            And above all, the rule of law has been discarded in favor of passionate action. Whatever a majority, or even a vocal minority, is convinced is the "right thing to do" must be done at once, never mind whether it's done right. The lack of necessary legal authority is a trifling distraction. Why let the intricate legal musings of dead white males stand against the "fierce urgency of now?" Why should the righteous many fret about the rights of the few who dissent? We have to Do Something, about everything, and universal participation is mandatory.

                            “He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”
