No one has been a victim of unfair media coverage more than President Donald Trump: Nick Sandmann

Nick Sandmann delivers remarks at the 2020 Republican National Convention. He is the Kentucky high school student who reached settlements with CNN and The Washington Post stemming from coverage of a 2019 confrontation with a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial.

“I look forward to the day that the media returns to providing balanced, responsible and accountable news coverage. I know President Trump hopes for that too,” Sandmann said.

“I know you’ll agree with me when I say no one in this county has been a victim of unfair media coverage more than President Donald Trump,” he said.

Sandmann had been the target of significant criticism after a video went viral featuring him standing in front of an Omaha tribe leader at the 2019 March for Life rally in Washington, D.C. But later videos and additional reporting showed Sandmann and other students from Covington Catholic High School being taunted and jeered at by other people at the protest.

Sandmann ended his speech by quoting Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” and donning one of the signature red baseball caps bearing the same phrase. Sandmann had worn the same hat in the video that swept through social media last year.
