Trump sues CBS over Harris interview

(Al Jazeera Media Network) Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has sued CBS over an early October interview of Harris aired on its 60 Minutes news program, alleging that the broadcast was misleading, Reuters reports, citing a court filing.

The complaint, filed in federal court in the Northern District of Texas, alleges that the network aired two different responses from the Democratic candidate responding to a question about the war in Gaza.

The version that aired during the program on October 6 did not include what the lawsuit calls a “word salad” response from Harris about the Biden administration’s influence on Israel’s conduct of the war.

The suit demanded a jury trial and about $10 billion in damages, according to the Reuters report. It alleges violations of a Texas law barring deceptive acts in the conduct of business.

Trump has repeatedly attacked CBS on the campaign trail over the episode and has threatened to revoke its broadcasting licence if elected. CBS has denied the allegations and said Trump backed out of his own planned interview with 60 Minutes.
