“BREAKING NEWS! We have just achieved a BIG AND IMPORTANT WIN in our Historic Lawsuit against 60 Minutes, CBS, and Paramount,” Trump posted. “Just like ABC and George Slopadopoulos, CBS and its Corporate Owners knew that they defrauded the American People, and were desperate to settle.”

“Paramount/CBS/60 Minutes have today paid $16 Million Dollars in settlement, and we also anticipate receiving $20 Million Dollars more from the new Owners, in Advertising, PSAs, or similar Programming, for a total of over $36 Million Dollars,” he added. “This is another in a long line of VICTORIES over the Fake News Media, who we are holding to account for their widespread fraud and deceit.”

Crows?

They like to use loaded terms.

Anyhow, why not crow.

Think about it. It’s very serious.

Major news networks deliberately collaborating in fabrications with one party’s campaign to influence a presidential election.

He’s crowing. What a weird expression no one uses

He won. On our behalf. We need news not fake news. Late night tv-bedtime story hour for adults, not hate and midnight vaccine push

Crews. Pshaw.

Yeah. He won.

The WSJ’s contribution will be humongous.

Maybe CBS can send Colbert over to wash Trump’s car and do the windows at Mar a largo to reduce the amount by a few dollars. I’d love to see that scumbag doing some real work.

There were 3 other talk shows that were cancelled by cbs yet no outcry from the democrats about it as they were canceled because they were costing too much just like the Colbert show.

“Late Late Show” in 2023. James Corden host. 8 seasons.

CBS Canceled ‘After Midnight’ which replaced Late Late Show, host Taylor Tomlinson. Last show in June after just 3 seasons.

CBS canceled the daytime talk show “The Talk” December 20, 2024. The reasons cited for its cancellation included years of declining ratings. Lasted 15 seasons.

4 shows cancelled by CBS due to high cost and low ratings.

“This is another in a long line of VICTORIES over the Fake News Media, who we are holding to account for their widespread fraud and deceit.”

It's a start.
