CBS asked a judge on Friday to dismiss Donald Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the network, saying the president-elect failed to identify any legal problems with 60 Minutes’s recent interview with Vice President Kamala Harris.
Attorneys for the network wrote in court filings that Trump improperly accused CBS of violating a Texas consumer protection law that had nothing to do with a media outlet’s editorial practices. Trump also could not explain “how he arrived at $10 billion in purported damages” caused to his campaign and failed to include his campaign as a plaintiff, rendering the lawsuit “irrelevant,” the attorneys said.
