"President Trump looks forward to seeing this case through to a just conclusion."
Paramount is seeking a merger with Skydance Media, an entertainment company that is owned by Larry Ellison and controlled by his son, David, according to the New York Times. When Trump launched the lawsuit, it was dismissed by some as far-fetched, but now that Paramount is seeking to merge the media company, government permissions with the FCC may stand in its way.
Settlement discussions between Trump and Paramount have been underway, according to the outlet, citing multiple sources familiar with the negotiations. The majority shareholder of Paramount, Shari Redstone, has reportedly been in favor of the settlement and stands to get billions from selling her shares of the company.
During a 60 Minutes interview for the 2024 campaign, there was one condensed version of Harris' answer to a question on Israel presented in the full-length interview that aired on 60 Minutes, but when it was advertised on Face the Nation earlier in the day, the clip had Harris giving something of a "word salad" answer.
60 Minutes claimed that the accusation of a deceptive edit was "false" and that the show instead "gave an excerpt of our interview to ‘Face the Nation’ that used a longer section of [Harris'] answer than that on 60 Minutes. Same question. Same answer. But a different portion of the response."
The lawsuit from Trump is seeking $10 billion in damages and accuses the network of "election interference" because of the "deceptively doctored" interview.
On Saturday, Trump's lawyer Edward Paltzik, argued, “Real accountability for CBS and Paramount will ensure that the president is compensated for the harm done to him, and will deter the Fake News from further distorting the facts to advance a partisan agenda. President Trump looks forward to seeing this case through to a just conclusion.”
