FCC Commissioner Comments Updated in additional details: PARAMOUNT GLOBAL has discussed in detail with Donald Trump’s team about solving the lawsuit against CBS for the 60 -minute interview with Camalahalis last year. Ta. You can check it.
Reconciliation will be a very settlement gesture for Trump. He was not part of a 60 -minute work, but appealed for a network of $ 10 billion under the Texas deceive Ceptive Trade Company.
However, Paramount Global is looking for green lights for selling to Sky Dance. This requires the approval of the Trump administration’s regulatory authorities. Brendan Kerr, appointed by Trump to lead the FCC, indicates that a 60 -minute interview is part of the transaction review. CBS News said today that we will comply with FCC inquiries to provide unwritten transcript and camera feed today.
The first New York Times reported on Trump’s talk with Trump, reported that the paramount global ruler Shari Redstone has strongly supported the reconciliation.
“This is not surprising. The contract will make things easier for Shari and the whole company to make things easier,” said Paramount Insider on Thursday evening.
Trump’s legal team had today’s deadline to respond to the CBS claim that rejected the case, but they asked the judge to push the date back.
In the news department, one insider explained “the scope of emotions from New York to DC.” As a mild misfortune for the alarm. 60 minutes will work as another entity in the department, but this situation has reached not only in the show but also within the department, as well as dissatisfaction with the reconciliation effect on reconciliation. It is said that Bill Owens, President and CEO of CBS News and Stations, and Bill Owens, a 60 -minute executive producer, has expressed the opposition, but the staff resigned a little to the fact that the decision is made at the highest level. It looked like I did. Of the company.
After the 60 -minute segment was broadcast, Trump claimed that the interview was seemed to have been edited because Harris was aired in a 60 -minute promotion and answered a question about Gaza. However, CBS defended the interview violently, refused to be deceived, and said that the different answers of the show were simply for time. The show itself is “the same question, the same answer, but another part of the response.”
In the news business, it is also a general practice for trimming the length of the length. In Trump’s response, CBS called the lawsuit “completely no merit,” and said, “I defend it violently.”
CBS lawyers said in response to the lawsuit, as part of the rejected claim, “A attempts to punish defendants for the plaintiff’s editing decisions are prohibited by Article 1.” With the early merger submission of this month, Skydance and Paramount Global had a similar discussion in response to conservative group complaints that CBS news programming was biased and should be dealt with as a merger condition. 。 Skydance-paramount stated that such conditions were “the correction of the fix is equivalent to an attack on itself.”
Trump has a long track record of filing a lawsuit against the media entity, and many major outlets have fought the case. A 60 -minute lawsuit, with a 10 billion dollar damages, exceeding all expenditures in the 2024 election, was widely regarded as frivolous by legal experts. CNN and The New York Times have recently succeeded in dismissing a lawsuit that Trump has brought to them.
The difference is that Trump is a media, in which media companies pursue other merger that requires regulatory authorities, or do not want to deal with time and effort, pursuing other merger. Trump is the media. You are back to the White House when the situation changes. The anger of the president.
ABC has resolved the Trump lawsuit for Network and George Stefanopuros for an interview in March. With the reconciliation, the network paid a $ 15 million and $ 1 million legal expenses to Trump libraries.
Earlier this week, Meta resolved Trump’s 2021 litigation after the attack on the Parliamentary Hall on January 6th, stopping from the Facebook and Instagram platform. The reconciliation not only calls Meta paying $ 25 million to provide the Trump Library, but also supports other plaintiffs and lawyers in the case.
The most important global spokesman, who was asked about the reconciliation consultation, said “no comment.”
Anna Gomez, one of the two Democratic members of the FCC, said in a statement in a statement in CARR, “Ignoring long -term norms and ignoring the missions given to FCC to FCC, independent institutions. He also said that he was ignoring the role of a fairly regulatory authority. “
“Let’s make it clear,” she said. “This is a government -retalial movement to a broadcasting station that is recognized as the content and coverage is disadvantageous. It is designed to plant fears in the broadcasting station and affect the editing of network editing. “
