ABC News Settles Donald Trump’s Defamation Suit for $15 Million
ABC News has agreed to pay $15 million to settle the defamation lawsuit brought against George Stephanopoulos and the network by Donald Trump.
ABC News has agreed to pay $15 million and issue a statement of apology to settle the defamation lawsuit brought against George Stephanopoulos and the network by Donald Trump after the anchor inaccurately stated that the president-elect was liable for rape. Trump sued ABC and Stephanopoulos after the “This Week” host said the president-elect was found liable for raping journalist and author E. Jean Carroll during an interview on March 10. This settlement comes one day after Trump was ordered by Federal Judge Lisette M. Reid to sit for a deposition next week in relation to the defamation lawsuit, according to the New York Times.
