Paramount, the movie and television giant, just agreed to pay millions of dollars to Donald Trump’s presidential library, just as the Trump administration is considering whether to block or approve Paramount’s proposed merger with Skydance, another film giant.

The payment to Trump’s library is part of a $17 million settlement of a lawsuit Trump filed accusing CBS News of election interference in its deceptive editing of an interview with Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
