Trump Lobs Defamation Suit at ABC News


Former president Donald Trump filed a defamation lawsuit against ABC News and George Stephanopoulos

Former President Donald Trump has filed a defamation suit against ABC News and one of its best known anchors, George Stephanopoulos, alleging that the TV journalist damaged Trump’s standing by saying on air that he had been found liable for raping E. Jean Carroll, a journalist and writer who recently won a defamation suit against the former Commander in Chief. In the past, federal judges have dismissed suits he has filed against CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post. The Stephanopoulos remarks in question were made during a March 10 interview between the anchor and Rep. Nancy Mace, the South Carolina Republican.
