Summary
Donald Trump has launched a series of legal actions against major news outlets, including the New York Times, CBS News, and the Washington Post, demanding billions in damages for alleged defamatory coverage.
A letter from Trump’s attorney accuses the Times of engaging in “industrial-scale libel” and targets articles scrutinizing Trump’s business and political conduct.
Legal complaints have also been filed over CBS’s alleged pro-Kamala Harris edits and Washington Post articles purportedly aiding her campaign.
Legal experts warn that such litigation could have a “chilling effect” on journalism, especially for smaller outlets.
No, its just we won’t be converting then. We will BE an authoritarian nation when everything gets much worse.
