Summary
Paramount has agreed to pay $16 million to settle a lawsuit brought by President Donald Trump alleging that an interview with Kamala Harris on "60 Minutes" was deceptively edited. The settlement includes no admission of wrongdoing, but CBS and Paramount Global agreed to release transcripts of interviews with eligible U.S. presidential candidates after they have aired. The settlement comes as Paramount seeks to complete an $8 billion merger with Skydance Media.
