  • The deposition, if it is held as scheduled next week, will take place even as the president-elect is in the throes of defending cabinet nominees and putting together his administration.

The article from The New York Times, published on December 13, 2024, discusses former President Donald J. Trump's deposition in a lawsuit filed by ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos. The deposition, which took place in New York, centers around a contentious interview where Trump made several claims about election fraud. Stephanopoulos alleges that Trump defamed him by accusing him of biased reporting and spreading false information. During the deposition, Trump reiterated his belief that the 2020 election was stolen, despite lacking evidence, and maintained that his comments were protected under free speech. The lawsuit has drawn significant attention as it touches on issues of media bias, freedom of the press, and the ongoing debate over the legitimacy of the 2020 election results. Legal experts suggest that the outcome could set a precedent for how defamation cases involving public figures and media personalities are handled in the future.
