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.

    trump has been talking to Musk apparently. Musk sued companies that stopped advertising with Twitter. This is the same concept. Musk believes he is owed the advertiser’s money even before its given to him. trump is saying he deserved the attention that he thinks he would have received if CBS hadn’t aired 60 minutes.

    In both cases, its bullshit.
