Trump Pursues Settlement in $20 Billion CBS Lawsuit Over Kamala Harris Interview

The lawsuit alleges deceptive editing by CBS's '60 Minutes,' but legal experts and released footage challenge Trump's claims.

  • Donald Trump is seeking a substantial settlement in his $20 billion lawsuit against CBS, claiming deceptive editing of a Kamala Harris interview influenced public perception.
  • The lawsuit, initially focused on alleged election interference, was later amended to claim harm to Trump's social media platform, Truth Social.
  • CBS has defended its editing practices as standard and released unedited footage of the interview, which contradicts Trump’s allegations.
  • Legal experts and media organizations, including the National Association of Broadcasters, have dismissed the lawsuit as frivolous.
  • Settlement talks are ongoing, with speculation about potential implications for Paramount Global's pending merger, which requires FCC approval.
