Senators Bernie Sanders and eight Democratic colleagues urged Paramount Global's controlling shareholder Shari Redstone not to settle President Donald Trump's lawsuit over an edit on CBS's '60 Minutes.' The lawsuit claims the edit was 'bogus' and damaged Trump's reputation. The senators sent a letter to Redstone, asking her not to settle in order to avoid setting a precedent that could be used by other celebrities or politicians. The move shows support for the network in its decision to stand firm against the lawsuit.
