ABC News has agreed to pay $15 million to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by President-elect Donald Trump. The lawsuit was triggered by comments made by George Stephanopoulos during an interview, inaccurately claiming Trump was found ‘liable for rape.’ As part of the settlement, ABC will also issue public apologies and donate to a fund for Trump’s presidential foundation. This settlement follows recent legal victories for Trump, including the dismissal of charges related to classified documents and a pause in a federal case regarding election subversion.
