Trump, Paramount Explore PSA Settlement in $20B Lawsuit
Tap title to read story
Paramount is exploring a settlement with President Trump to resolve his $20 billion lawsuit over a "60 Minutes" interview. The proposed settlement involves CBS News running public service announcements (PSAs) on antisemitism and support for US veterans. This is a potential solution to end the costly legal battle and also pave the way for Paramount's $8 billion sale to Skydance, currently stalled due to FCC concerns about CBS's alleged bias. While Trump's team favors the PSA approach, Paramount's stance remains unclear. Shari Redstone, Paramount's controlling shareholder, is willing to pay up to $50 million, but concerns about bribery laws exist.
