A group of senators is warning Shari Redstone that the Paramount chief shareholder’s push to reach a settlement with Donald Trump in his lawsuit against CBS News could potentially be in violation of federal bribery laws.
In a letter sent by Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Ron Wyden (D-OR) on Tuesday night, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, the legislators warned Paramount “may be engaging in improper conduct involving the Trump Administration in exchange for approval of its merger with Skydance Media.”
