A group of investors sued UnitedHealthcare Group on Wednesday, accusing the company of misleading them after the killing of its CEO, Brian Thompson.

The class action lawsuit — filed in the Southern District of New York — accuses the health insurance company of not initially adjusting their 2025 net earning outlook to factor in how Thompson’s killing would affect their operations.

The group, which is seeking unspecified damages, argued that the public backlash prevented the company from pursuing “the aggressive, anti-consumer tactics that it would need to achieve” its earnings goals.

    I am surprised that more people here, given our vast experience with trolls, can’t see through this massive trolling.

    There was a recent inpour of people from the other site, and they spend all their time posting one-liners based on the headline. They don’t rea the article, most of the time they don’t even understand the headline, just the words in that order.
