US media company Paramount Global has agreed to pay $16 million (£13.5m) to settle a legal dispute with US President Donald Trump regarding an interview it broadcast on CBS with former Vice President Kamala Harris.

As usual corporations looking for special treatment, hoping to have their merger accepted, refuse to fight the fascist…

I wish someone would sue Fox for fucks sake…

    We don’t allow editorialized headlines. If you fix it, we can restore it.

      My words exactly when I read this…

      Paramount doesn’t give one solitary fuck about how this affects perception of media, how the Reich gets to do a victory lap and entrench the idea that no media but their media should be trusted, all Paramount cares about is money.

      They even still hold that they did nothing wrong, but they refuse to fight because Mango Mussolini has the power to stop their merger…

      And as usual every fucking coward Democrat who has ever been mistreated or misrepresented by Fox news refuses to sue them because we need to “go high when they go low.” Nice plan Icarus.

      I didn’t hear any jokes. Just a couple “nerds” talking in between canned laughter.

        CBS and it’s reliability on anything to do with news is now a joke. They’re blown up any credibility that they may have had left. Turn themselves into a punchline for profits as capitalists are wont.
