Summary

Donald Trump amended his lawsuit against CBS, now alleging that a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris unfairly diverted viewers from his Truth Social platform.

He claims CBS’ edits misled the public, boosting Harris while harming his media business, and seeks $20 billion in damages. CBS argues its edits were standard and protected by the First Amendment.

Legal experts view the case as weak, but it coincides with Paramount Global’s regulatory review, leading to reported settlement talks.

The FCC has also opened an inquiry into CBS’ editing decisions.

    The more I hear about this idiot the more it seems like he is doing as much stupid shit he can to distract people. Classic thievery, pay attention to the left hand while the right hand is in your pocket.

      He’s exhausting us. It’s actually a clever tactic to wear us down before the final solution begins and we all just…. accept it.
