  1. Didn’t they just fold to Trump in another major lawsuit a few months ago?

    Edit: ABC got it

  2. Nice to see a media outlet finally grow some balls. Let’s hope others follow… 

  4. >“They not only ask for $20 billion in damages but also seek an order directing how a news organization may exercise its editorial judgment in the future.

    Calling for a $20 million dollar settlement within 3 weeks if their motion to dismiss is denied.

  6. If the media would stop dick riding Trump’s mushroom, then MSM would be in its current state of irrelevance. Serious journos have moved to alternate platforms, but only the politerati are savvy enough to track the fast moving day-to-day. Trump’s idiot supporters still tune into Faux News to get their daily dose of Kremlin talking points and won’t look at another network. So stupid!

  7. the DOJ has such a shortage of lawyers and personnel since elons purge that they are having a tuff time keeping up with the 100 lawsuits that have been filled against the administration. the lawyers of the DOJ have been reprimanded for the sloppy paperwork and being unprepared for hearings and have stated that their staff have be cut in half. now is the only time in the last 100 years that civilians defendants and complainants have more resources available than the DOJ. this has led to loses in most cases before the federal courts. this is one bright spot that may help defeat trumps agenda.

  8. You’ve gotta be kidding me.

    >President Trump is committed to holding those who traffic in fake news, hoaxes and lies to account.

    Donnie von Shitzinpants purveys the most misinformation! What has he stated that is not a lie! This has got to be a joke.

  9. Mark my word, they’ll settle just like ABC did because they need access to the president in order to operate.

  11. It’s a headline but, will they follow through without caving. 

  13. What I want to know is why Kamala isn’t suing Fox News for *her* interview on that channel. I watched it and it was clear they set it up specifically to make her look bad.

    Not to mention all other programming on that channel is set up to make Trump look good and Democrats in general look bad.

  14. Surprise surprise. After abc bent the knee I figured no network would stand up

  17. Election changing stuff is what Trump is claiming? So he would have lost if CBS didn’t doctor the interview?

  18. Finally, someone stands up! This should be an interesting watch!

  24. At long last.

    More of this energy. Fatigue him. Bewilder his incompetent staff. Undermine. Delay. Fight.

  25. Trump is projecting and upset that people know he shits himself and wears diapers. The more we laugh at him and he knows it, the sooner he will implode. The emperor has no clothes and these are desperate attempts to convince us otherwise.

  27. Once we get a sane President or a veto proof majority in Congress we NEED to pass a federal Anti-SLAPP law!

  29. About fucking time. I hope this is a real fight to protect some journalistic independence.

    I say “some” with a grain of salt.

  30. “President Trump is committed to holding those who traffic in fake news, hoaxes and lies to account”

    that idiot is the biggest fake news and hoaxer and liar!

  32. I was wondering how this lawsuit even is a thing. He claims they doctored the video to help Harris win the election. But he won the election. So how was he damaged, even if that’s what they did do?

    Hopefully they also can get some sanctions on the attorneys

  33. Wow CBS!! This is the way to grow your audience- by standing up to the tyrant and standing for truth!! Gives me hope!

  34. How many times did Obama and Biden try and sue media companies?

  35. Kamala gained an unfair advantage from editing in her interview but she also lost the election? Only one thing can be true in that argument … so did she actually win the election?

  36. The major media outlets should circle the wagons with a shared legal defense fund

  37. The reason he’s still mad is because he didn’t win legitimately. He’s still fuming that a black woman was more popular than him.

  39. This is what I’ve been waiting for. Stand up to the orange turd. If you win on MTD, they you demonstrate that the suit was meritless, and that ABC and Meta were taking the bait and using the lawsuits to pay off the president.

    If the suit survives MTD, you get a front-row seat to very-high profile litigation and can report on it immediately, before anyone else can get the story, and with the most detailed information. You get to subpoena the President of the United States to appear in a civil matter, conduct discovery, all of which he will resist. And if he does, move for favorable inferences and sanctions.

    If the president retaliates, then counterclaim for 1983 violations and start getting injunctions if he blocks CBS from the oval, or initiates a DoJ investigation, or FCC shenanigans.

  41. Why does it always look like he’s jerking off a ghost.

  42. Didn’t the Orange Turd always argue in court he didn’t have time for this kinda shit before the election?

  43. “Election fraud” when he won… 🙄 He can’t argue damage from the interview, but Trump and MAGA have no logic.

  44. Man ABC looks so horrible compared to this 15 million bribe payout cause it was less expensive than defending yourself.

    Dump.offically has turned defamation lawsuits into money-making schemes through settling, leveraging the government, and pressure campaigns. All while being 100% in the wrong.
