Paramount Considers Settling Trump's $10 Billion Lawsuit Over CBS '60 Minutes' Interview with Kamala Harris Amid FCC Review of Skydance Merger
Jan 17, 2025, 08:11 PM
Paramount Global executives are considering settling a $10 billion lawsuit filed by Donald Trump against CBS News over an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris on '60 Minutes.' The lawsuit, filed in October, alleges that CBS News 'deceptively doctored' the interview during Harris's 2024 Democratic presidential campaign, accusing the network of 'election interference.' The potential settlement discussions come as Paramount's planned merger with Skydance Media heads for a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) review. The merger's approval could be complicated by Trump's dissatisfaction with CBS News, prompting Paramount executives to consider concessions, including settling the lawsuit, to facilitate the merger's approval. The FCC's incoming chair, Brendan Carr, has indicated a thorough review of CBS News as part of the merger evaluation.
