Trump let ABC off easy in settling for just $16 million over George Stephanopoulos' blatant defamation

_{//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. er-george-stephanopoulos-blatant-defamation.html}
^{Published in Politics and Government on Sunday, December 15th 2024 at 20:20 GMT by MSN}

President-elect Donald Trump let ABC off easy; it only has to pay $15 million toward his future presidential library, plus $1 million for his lawyers' fees, to get out of a defamation lawsuit it was sure to lose
and so avoid legal discovery that surely would have finished off whatever reputation its new division still has.

The article discusses a lawsuit filed by former President Donald Trump against ABC News and its anchor George Stephanopoulos for defamation. Trump alleges that Stephanopoulos falsely claimed on air that Trump was found liable for rape in a civil case involving E. Jean Carroll, when in fact, Trump was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation, not rape. The settlement amount was set at $16 million, which the article suggests is relatively low considering the potential damage to Trump's reputation. The piece critiques the settlement, arguing that ABC News got off "easy" with this amount, given the severity of the accusations and the potential for higher damages. It also touches on the broader implications of media accountability and the legal definitions of terms like "rape" versus "sexual abuse" in civil versus criminal law contexts.
