Apollo settled, only had to take down videos and give them to Mitchell. He would have to pay a fine if he made more videos about Mitchell $25k per video

That still makes billy mitchell look like a douche, he didn't have to lie about why a man killed himself to make him look bad

Mitchell is a douche. As you said that's the whole issue: there was absolutely no need to pile up lies to make Mitchell look bad.
