Former President Donald Trump has filed a $10 billion lawsuit against CBS News, alleging “deceptive doctoring” of Vice President Kamala Harris‘s recent 60 Minutes interview. The lawsuit claims CBS intentionally edited the segment to portray Harris in a favorable light, with the aim of influencing the 2024 presidential election in favor of the Democratic Party.
In a formal statement, Trump’s legal team accused CBS of “election interference,” alleging the network sought to mislead the public by releasing a “skillfully edited interview transcript” that misrepresented Harris’ “abilities, intelligence, and appeal.” Trump’s legal counsel emphasized that this edit was designed to sway voter perception as the high-stakes 2024 election, in which Trump is currently leading, albeit narrowly, according to the latest polls.
“President Trump brings this action to redress the immense harm caused to him, his campaign, and tens of millions of citizens in Texas and across America by CBS’s deceptive broadcasting conduct,” the lawsuit reads, referencing alleged efforts to manipulate public opinion.
