Summary
Paramount is in settlement talks with Donald Trump over his $10 billion lawsuit against CBS, which he claims deceptively edited a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris before the 2024 election.
Paramount executives, including controlling shareholder Shari Redstone, reportedly support a settlement to avoid jeopardizing their pending merger with Skydance, which requires FCC approval.
The FCC is led by Trump appointee Brendan Carr.
Trump has recently secured multimillion-dollar settlements from ABC News and Meta in similar lawsuits against major media companies.

Trump cannot be sued while president, but is free to sue others…
Facing an “unprecedented” number of civil lawsuits, Trump argued that having to fend off the litigation would be a “distraction” from his presidential duties and “interfere substantially” with the function of the executive branch.
Every single day with this fucking guy already:
Fucking corpo news killed us already and are just making the hole even deeper out of their own greed…
