Paramount settles with Trump over ‘60 Minutes’ interview for $16m

Paramount Global has agreed to pay $16m to settle a legal dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump regarding an interview it broadcast on CBS with former Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump filed a lawsuit last October, alleging the network had deceptively edited an interview that aired on its 60 Minutes news program with his presidential election rival to "tip the scales in favor of the Democratic party." Paramount said it would pay to settle the suit, but with the money allocated to Trump's future presidential library, and not paid to him "directly or indirectly." The company noted the settlement does not include a statement of apology or regret. CBS previously said the case was "completely without merit" and had asked a judge to dismiss it. A spokesman for Mr. Trump’s legal team said the settlement was “another win for the American people” delivered by the president, who was holding “the fake news media accountable,” adding “CBS and Paramount Global realized the strength of this historic case and had no choice but to settle.”
