CBS’s ’60 Minutes’ Releases Full Trump Interview Following Editing Criticism

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer plans to file an FCC complaint over CBS's heavy editing of Trump's 60 Minutes interview, citing a $16 million prior settlement over Kamala Harris's interview.

  • CBS provided a full video and text transcript of Trump's 73-minute interview with Norah O'Donnell, showing extended moments where Trump raged at Joe Biden, political opponents and his indictments, though only 28 minutes were broadcast.
  • The broadcast portion made some news, such as when Trump agreed that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro's days are numbered, while being evasive on whether the U.S. would conduct land strikes on the country.
  • CBS said its edits were standard practice due to time constraints, offering viewers a look into the editing process at one of journalism's best-known institutions.
  • Schumer joked that Trump should file a complaint with the FCC over how his '60 Minutes' interview was edited, highlighting the irony after Trump sued CBS last year for editing Kamala Harris' interview.
