Judge Chastises CNN Lawyer For His Lack Of Credibility, Slinging Of Insults

Federalist: Judge William Henry questioned the credibility of CNN’s lead counsel David Axelrod on Wednesday and chastised him for repeatedly referring to U.S. Navy veteran Zachary Young as a “liar.”

Young sued CNN after it published a report in November of 2021 that allegedly falsely accused Young of exploiting desperate Afghans seeking evacuation from Afghanistan on a “black market.” A court found that Young “did not act illegally or criminally.” Young testified that he lost work as a result of the allegedly defamatory report.

Throughout the course of the trial, Axelrod argued that Young had maintained a security clearance after CNN’s report and therefore Young must have lied about being able to obtain work in the subsequent months. But Young’s counsel informed the court that Young has since learned (after testifying) that he actually lost his security clearance in 2022. more
