Yesterday Drew Holden put together a list of individuals and entities that Kyle Rittenhouse should consider suing after calling him all sorts of names as the result of acting in self-defense in Kenosha a year ago.
Here is a list of some of these entities from Drew Holden as noted at Twitchy.
This list should no doubt start with CNN and the NYT:
This wasn’t just limited to CNN. @nytimes put out what amounts to a hit piece on Rittenhouse because his “social media accounts showed strong support for officers.”
They even put out a piece about how right-wingers attacking protestors was some sort of phenomenon. pic.twitter.com/f3yqKRxGUA

MSNBC and Joy Reid come next:
Perhaps no one in the media has spent more time sharing inaccurate information than @JoyAnnReid. This was no exception.
She lumped Rittenhouse in with “white nationalist mobs” and accused Trump of “ethnic cleansing” (!!) for daring to defend Rittenhouse. pic.twitter.com/gtl1HLnLDZ

One individual singled out by Holden is Bryan Tyler Cohen and his show called “No Lie”.
Once again, @briantylercohen hosts a show called “No Lie” and yet spouts nonsense and misinformation in a nearly unparalleled way. pic.twitter.com/haIMNecZ0p

Holden singles out someone at NPR for some outlandish remarks even at the time.
Again, the framing of what happened was always preposterous. Here’s @Yamiche from NPR claiming that the takeaway was meant to be “that ifs okay for a 17-year old to shoot people on the street who are unarmed, who are at a protest.”
This is impossible to square with the facts. pic.twitter.com/HWkWy4MiOa

Of course, WaPo and even Reuters current comments are ripe for legal action.
Also, as a call out, this type of deceptive coverage is still going on.
During the trial, @Reuters described someone who attacked Rittenhouse as the “survivor of shooting by U.S, teen” while @CBSMornings said Rittenhouse “murdered two men” (h/t @BecketAdams) pic.twitter.com/6cGZd5F9xC
