CBS Asks To Dismiss Trump's lawsuit Over '60 Minutes' Interview With Kamala Harris

CBS, on Friday, filed to dismiss Donald Trump's $10 billion lawsuit over the editing of Kamala Harris' "60 Minutes" interview.

In its request to dismiss, CBS argued that Trump's claims do not form a legal basis and that the First Amendment safeguards its right to edit news interviews. CBS' lawyers argued that the First Amendment shields the network from liability for editorial decisions the President may disagree with, highlighting that CBS had the right to shorten the vice president's response for time constraints. They added, "Such decisions are not subject to judicial second-guessing."
