CBS Seeks Dismissal of Trump's $10 Billion Lawsuit Over Kamala Harris '60 Minutes' Interview

The lawsuit alleges deceptive editing of Harris' responses, but CBS argues First Amendment protections and jurisdictional issues invalidate the claims.

Donald Trump filed a $10 billion lawsuit against CBS, claiming the editing of Kamala Harris' '60 Minutes' interview constituted election interference and deceptive news practices.
CBS has filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that the First Amendment protects its editorial decisions and that the lawsuit lacks legal standing.
The lawsuit was filed in Texas, but CBS contends the case should be dismissed or moved to New York, as the claims have no connection to Texas jurisdiction.
CBS maintains that Harris' responses were edited for time constraints, not altered maliciously, and denies any wrongdoing in its broadcast practices.
Legal experts have widely criticized the lawsuit as frivolous, with CBS pointing out that Trump's election victory renders claims of interference moot.
