US presidential candidate Donald Trump believes , that CBS News should not only pay him $10 billion in damages, but should also forfeit its broadcast license for editing an interview with Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
„I just sued CBS over 60 Minutes for fraudulently interfering in the election. Harris is asked a question, she gives a long rambling answer. And you know what CBS does? They cut everything out, take another answer to a meaningless question and put it in its place. I think CBS should lose its license,” he told supporters in Henderson, Nev., on Oct. 31.
The rally was broadcast by the conservative media company RSBN.
Trump also thinks ABC should lose its license for poorly staging his debate with Harris in September.
Earlier, Fox News reported that Trump had sued CBS News. The Republican is pushing for a lawsuit and is also seeking at least $10 billion in damages for “continued fraudulent and deceptive practices”. CBS.
In the first half of October, the Trump campaign requested that CBS release an unedited version of the Harris interview. The Republican presidential candidate is convinced that the producers of "60 Minutes" repeatedly modified and assembled Harris' answers. Trump said the case may violate campaign finance rules and requires an immediate investigation and public apology. He called the situation “a clear manifestation of fake news”.
