FCC Investigates CBS Over Editing of Kamala Harris '60 Minutes' Interview

The release of unedited transcripts and video follows allegations by Donald Trump of election interference through deceptive editing.

  • CBS released full transcripts and videos of Kamala Harris' October 2024 '60 Minutes' interview following an FCC request tied to a news distortion complaint.
  • The complaint, filed by a conservative group, alleges CBS edited Harris' response to a question about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to favor her during the 2024 election.
  • Donald Trump has filed a $10 billion lawsuit against CBS, claiming the edits were deceptive and constituted election interference.
  • FCC Chair Brendan Carr, a Trump appointee, is leading an investigation into whether the edits violated the FCC's 'news distortion' policy.
  • The FCC's findings could affect CBS's parent company Paramount Global's pending merger with Skydance Media, which requires regulatory approval.
