Donald Trump Calls for ’60 Minutes’ to Be ‘Terminated’ Amid Lawsuit Over Kamala Harris Interview, Claims ‘CBS Should Lose Its License’
President Donald Trump called on CBS to cancel its long-running newsmagazine, “60 Minutes,” the latest maneuver in a legal battle he started against the program last year.
A $10 billion lawsuit, filed by Trump in federal court in the Northern District of Texas in November, alleged “60 Minutes” tried to mislead voters by airing two different edits of remarks made in an interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris, then Trump’s rival for the White House. CBS sought to have the case thrown out in a subsequent filing.
“CBS and 60 Minutes defrauded the public by doing something which has never, to this extent, been seen before,” Trump said in a social-media post. “They 100% removed Kamala’s horrible election changing answers to questions, and replaced them with completely different, and far better, answers, taken from another part of the interview. This was Election changing “stuff,” Election Interference and, quite simply, Election Fraud at a level never seen before. CBS should lose its license, and the cheaters at 60 Minutes should all be thrown out, and this disreputable “NEWS” show should be immediately terminated. With the new Democrat scandal that just arose with respect to USAID illegally paying large sums of money to Politico and other media outlets, the question must me asked, was CBS paid for committing this FRAUD??? Many other questions to come! This will go down as the biggest Broadcasting SCANDAL in History!!!”
Of course, CBS does not have a license. Those are granted to local statioins.
