Lawyers for Navy Veteran Say CNN Report on Afghan Evacuations Destroyed His Career
- Zachary Young, a U.S. Navy veteran, claims CNN's report on Afghan evacuations damaged his career and reputation by implying he illegally profited from evacuations during the Biden administration's withdrawal in 2021.
- Young testified he helped at least 22 women escape Afghanistan, which he says CNN did not report, alleging the network's claims rendered him 'permanently unemployable.'
- A court found that Young 'did not act illegally or criminally,' and he stated he has not made money since CNN's broadcast.
- Young described his emotional struggles, stating the segment 'wrecked' his life and he feels like a 'total failure' due to its lasting impact on his family and mental health.
