US media company Paramount Global has agreed to pay $16 million (£13.5m) to settle a legal dispute with US President Donald Trump regarding an interview it broadcast on CBS with former Vice President Kamala Harris.
As usual corporations looking for special treatment, hoping to have their merger accepted, refuse to fight the fascist…
I wish someone would sue Fox for fucks sake…
We don’t allow editorialized headlines. If you fix it, we can restore it.
“Paramount to pay Trump $16m to settle 60 Minutes lawsuit”
And shit like this is why Trump will keep doing this over and over again.
Boot licking is paramount
The American people should sue NBC for making Trump look good in The Apprentice
And what is Trump going to do with that money?
So was this extortion, a bribe, or both?
legalized bribery. he files bullshit lawsuits demanding payola and they cave no matter how great their chance if winning is… cause its not about lawsuits its about bribes
There’s a lot of massive mergers in the works right now. These are bribes.
New paramount logo just dropped 💩
Leslie Moonves can appreciate a Donald Trump candidacy.
Not that the CBS executive chairman and CEO might vote for the Republican presidential frontrunner, but he likes the ad money Trump and his competitors are bringing to the network.
“It may not be good for America, but it’s damn good for CBS,” he said of the presidential race.
Moonves called the campaign for president a “circus” full of “bomb throwing,” and he hopes it continues.
“Most of the ads are not about issues. They’re sort of like the debates,” he said.
“Man, who would have expected the ride we’re all having right now? … The money’s rolling in and this is fun,” he said.
I thought Moonves was forced to resign years ago cause of sexual Assault allegations
Indeed he was.
US corporate media: absolute fucking scum all the way down.
Pussies
Every single American institution is full of cowards and sycophants if they’re not fully mask-off bloodthirsty authoritarians.
Will no-one rid us of this turbulent president?
His own supporters have a history of attempts.
Be the change you want to see in the world
if i had the skill, I’d have done it already.
Unfortunately the only one to try didn’t have enough skill either… Stupid wind…
His problem was that he wanted the money shot. He wanted the head to explode. With as many shots as he fired, he could’ve easily hit that blubbering land mass trump calls a body multiple times.
America speed running to be ruled by Enclave.
I mean, is that merger of theirs even worth it? Skydance’s only noteworthy movies are those they already have a deal with Paramount for as it is. This is just so stupid.
Then again, $16m is chump change so I guess gems like… *Checks notes… The Old Guard 2 (?) will be a worthy exchange for any trust in legacy media.
Stop watching CBS
Anyone here want to hear a joke? Turn on CBS.
The channel where you see bs
I didn’t hear any jokes. Just a couple “nerds” talking in between canned laughter.
CBS and it’s reliability on anything to do with news is now a joke. They’re blown up any credibility that they may have had left. Turn themselves into a punchline for profits as capitalists are wont.
