CBS admitted to having favored Kamala during the campaign and will compensate Trump with 36 million.

The facts

CBS, owned by Paramount, blatantly manipulated and edited an interview conducted with then Vice President and presidential candidate Kamala Harris in October 2024.

In this context, CBS aired two versions of an interview with Harris in which the Democrat gave two different answers to the same question about the war between Israel and Gaza, illustrating the total coordination that existed between the press and the candidate's campaign team.

CBS journalist Bill Whitaker had asked Trump's rival to clarify whether there was any friction in the relationship between the United States and Israel. However, for Harris the question was so challenging that the network aired these two different excerpts in two separate programs.

The media outlet sought to excuse itself by explaining that the candidate's answer was lengthy, so it had been edited to fit the timing of both programs.

Far from anyone believing this explanation, the network had no choice but to seal its guilt with this agreement, admitting that it had deceived the public.

Trump warns other media outlets

In the same post where he announced his legal victory, Trump made sure to let other tabloids that have slandered him—such as the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, among others—know that they are on his radar for future lawsuits.

The presidential strategy of zero tolerance for defamation was set in motion when the Wall Street Journal falsely accused him of having written a suggestive birthday letter to the pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Based on this, not only were the Journal's owners and journalists sued by the President, but the White House also excluded the newspaper from the press group that will travel with the presidential entourage next weekend to Scotland.
