Former President Donald Trump has threatened to sue CBS News and its program '60 Minutes' following an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump alleges that the interview was misleading and has demanded the unedited transcript, which CBS has refused to provide. Trump is reportedly seeking $150 million in damages. CBS News has pushed back against the lawsuit threat, stating that the interview was fairly presented and that there is no legal basis for Trump's demands. An attorney for CBS emphasized that no private right of action exists for Trump's claims.
