A federal judge in Florida on Wednesday rejected an effort by ABC News host George Stephanopoulos to dismiss a defamation lawsuit levied against him by former President Donald Trump.
U.S. District Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga denied the motion to dismiss Trump’s defamation lawsuit against ABC News and Stephanopoulos, who was accused of mischaracterizing a jury’s finding that a Manhattan jury found Trump liable for sexual assault in the separate defamation case brought by former columnist E. Jean Carroll.
