Sen. Bernie Sanders and eight other Democratic senators are urging the top shareholder of CBS News’ parent company not to cave to Donald Trump and settle the president’s meritless $20 billion lawsuit over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris.
In a letter sent to Paramount Global boss Shari Redstone on Tuesday evening, first reported by The New York Times, Sanders and the other senators wrote that Trump’s complaint – which most legal experts have said is baseless and would likely get tossed out of court – is a “blatant attempt to intimidate the media and those who speak out against him.”
