Why would he set such a fucking retarded amount? No judge is going to rule favorably on that. Why not set something realistic like $5 million, or even better $1, one fucking dollar out of principle to expose that rag as lying fucks.

You don't understand the culture. That's not how things are done.

Because the lawyer knows they will settle to reduce the price. For example, If he said 10m it will be reduced to 1m. 100m to 10m. But i guess they will reduce it to 250k..
Also remember that hulk hogan had a similar case and won 200 million settlement from a news outlet, just like the WP.

Go get them!

You're supposed to haggle

Defamtion lawsuits have a 13% success rate. Lawsuits are set at such a high number knowing that won't go through. They are just to grab attention, they always settle for a fraction of that almost always privately.
Luke Morgan
punitive to evildoing media kikes, plus it always gets reduced to something much more reasonable. sets a precedent too.
Isaiah King
Boy, the things I would do for 250k, to be honest.
Austin Turner
I see.
Austin Howard
The point of awarding that amount is to at least hurt the perpetrator, which isn't really possible in this case, so it is being made to set an example. He most likely won't get that and will settle out of court for a lesser amount, which will still make him rich af. Which is the second point of suing for this amount. Ie: sue for 250m, settle out of court for 50m.
Jaxson Walker
Yes, they will settle for something between 250k and 1M. That's good money.
Samuel Jenkins
doesnt that mean the success rate is alot higher than 13%?
Anthony Hughes
Success means ruled in his favour.
Settling means no ruling
Joshua Adams
There's a reason why dude is a lawyer. This is the USA, anyway. Lawsuits are a crazy, but very real part of our culture. All day, every day. Hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars in active lawsuits. Everybody gets sued here. Even I've been sued and I don't have shit.
Luis King
mate this is america, do I have to tell you the story of how once an elderly lady got a McDonalds coffee that was much too hot?

Why set the bar low when you know there's going to be a settlement?

They'll most likely settle, but I really hope he won't and he'll go all in.
Camden Stewart
Because Bezos will settle so the number doesn't matter?
Parker Peterson
WaPo and all media outlets are guilty of judge-first mentality, the lawsuit is meant to scare the media
Jeremiah Scott
Please tell me Chief Shitting Bull is getting sued too.
Jaxson Barnes
It's to get even with Amazon for not paying tax.
Owen Perez
Love the reference
Thomas Russell
Most definitely
Ayden White
Jeremiah Rivera
It's a tactic. Besides, the lawyer gets 40%.
Nathaniel Gomez
Because they will settle. And if he goes for 5 it won't be much.
Anthony White
Not true. One of the rewards sought is WaPo paying all plaintiff court and lawyer fees

I hope that savage has to hand over the keys to his casino
