Fox News: CNN accused of misleading court on net worth for high-profile defamation case
CNN faces a defamation lawsuit from U.S. Navy veteran Zachary Young, who claims the network damaged his security consulting business by implying it profited illegally during the Afghanistan withdrawal in 2021. A trial is set for January 6, 2025, as Young alleges CNN withheld financial documents despite court orders.
Young's legal team argues that CNN's financial condition is inseparable from its parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, complicating the case. Previous rulings indicated Young presented sufficient evidence of malice to proceed to trial, with internal CNN communications questioning the integrity of the reporting.
