CBS News Attorney Responds To Donald Trump Lawsuit Threat Over Kamala Harris’ ‘60 Minutes’ Interview: “No Private Right Of Action Exists”


Trump has attacked CBS News continuously after he declined to participate in a 60 Minutes election special.

In the letter to Edward Andrew Paltzik of Trump’s legal team, obtained by Deadline, CBS News senior VP Gayle C. Sproul wrote that “ 60 Minutes did not hide any part of the Vice President’s answer to the question at issue.” Sproul also called the Trump team’s contention that the show was acting nefariously was “unfounded,” rejecting the former president’s claim that it was doctored or that the network had conceded that it had done so. “We further reserve all claims, privileges and defenses not explicitly stated here, including the right to seek attorneys’ fees or assert counterclaims under any applicable anti-SLAPP statute,” Sproul wrote.
