Retired Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz floated the idea of filing a libel lawsuit against CNN for its characterization of comments he made during the Senate impeachment trial of President Trump.

Dershowitz, who was on Trump’s legal defense team, announced the potential litigation in a column published Tuesday on Newsmax. He claims the network intentionally misrepresented what he said during his arguments on behalf of the president during the trial.
