A Florida jury on Friday morning put itself into position to deliver money justice to a U.S. Navy veteran who was defamed by CNN during a broadcast. The post ‘Stood up to fake news’: CNN liable for defaming Navy veteran to the tune of at least $5 million — with additional liability for punitive damages to come later first appeared on Law & Crime.

Zachary Young alleged CNN smeared him by implying he illegally profited when helping people flee Afghanistan on the "black market" during the Biden administration's military withdrawal from the country in 2021.

Jurors remain undecided in the high-stakes CNN defamation trial as deliberation will carry into a second day after mulling over the case for nearly six hours.
