Mediator proposes $20 million settlement in Trump's CBS lawsuit, WSJ reports
- A mediator proposed a $20 million settlement between President Donald Trump and Paramount Global over a lawsuit concerning a CBS News '60 Minutes' interview with Kamala Harris.
- Trump filed this lawsuit in October, claiming the interview was misleadingly edited to benefit the Democratic Party, and he is seeking a public apology along with damages totaling no less than $25 million.
- The proposal entails a $17 million contribution directed to either Trump's presidential foundation or museum, additional funds allocated for legal expenses, and the airing of public service messages on networks owned by Paramount aimed at combating antisemitism.
- CBS has dismissed the lawsuit as baseless and a violation of First Amendment rights, while Paramount has declined to apologize to Trump despite his demands.
- The settlement aims to resolve a major legal obstacle affecting Paramount’s $8.4 billion merger with Skydance Media and reduce ongoing liability risks for Paramount executives and shareholders.
