Summary
CBS has moved to dismiss Donald Trump’s $20 billion lawsuit over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris, calling it an attack on the First Amendment.
Trump alleges CBS edited the interview to harm him politically, citing “voter interference.” CBS attorneys argue the lawsuit seeks to punish “constitutionally protected editorial judgments” and is “without basis in law or fact.”
If not dismissed, CBS wants it moved to New York, where its headquarters is located.
The move comes as a surprise because CBS had considered settling to avoid delaying its $8 billion merger with Skydance Media, which requires regulatory approval.
Maybe if ya boy Reagan didn’t kill the news fairness act we wouldn’t fucking be here at all. Fuck Regan. Fuck Nixon. And fuck Trump.
CBS helped elect this clown. I distinctly recall in 2015 CBS cutting away from live Hillary Clinton rallies in the middle of her speech to instead go live to Trump’s empty podium before he even came out on stage.
I have no sympathy for what this administration does to the oligarchs legacy media corps now. And fuck Washington Post especially
Jeff Bezos to be specific. WP is basically just a shell now.
