NEW: CNN found liable for $5 million in defamation trial against a United States Navy veteran.
Zachary Young said CNN defamed him as an “illegal profiteer” when they said he charged Afghan evacuees thousands of dollars to leave the country.
The report was first shared on Jake Tapper’s show, where the network claimed the operation took place on the “black market” and had “no guarantee of safety or success.”
The jury ruled that Young is owed $4 million in financial damages and $1 million in emotional damages. He is also owed punitive damages.
