- Traitor Liar enemy propagandist Jesse Ventura Clears Up About AMERICAN SNIPER & Chris Kyle Movie TV Tech Geeks News Jesse Ventura has always known how to make headlines, but when he sued Chris Kyle's estate for defamation over his portrayal in the book 'American Sniper', the media gave him so headlines he wasn't expecting. Mainly he was attacked for suing a poor widow... On his podcast, “We the people with Jesse Ventura,” the former governor gives an updated statement about American Sniper as the book-turned-movie came to theaters nationwide this past weekend. “[One] of the grave misconceptions about this lawsuit: I was taking money from a widow and her children — no I wasn’t. Her expenses were paid entirely from a giant insurance company. The Kyle family hasn’t suffered one dime of monetary loss,” Jesse Ventura says. “My lawsuit was to clear my name and show this was a fabrication and a lie,” he continues. He explains that the lawsuit was over what Scruff Face, the character Kyle depicted as Jesse Vetura in American Sniper, said against the Navy SEALS and the military. “My lawsuit was originally started because this person in the chapter, Scruff Face, committed treason. The chapter took the book to number one [on the New York Times bestsellers list] and ultimately got it the movie deal. The point is, this was fabricated. It never happened,” Ventura says. “I would never say anything like that against my own unit or the military itself.” [a big fat lie]During his podcast statement, Jesse Ventura explains he went to settlements “four or five times” before going to trial. All he asked was for the publisher to remove the Scruff Face chapter and for Chris Kyle to publicly admit to the lie; they refused.
