CBS on Friday sought to dismiss President-elect Donald Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the network over its alleged doctoring of an interview with his then-opponent in the election for president, Vice President Kamala Harris. 

Trump filed the suit just days before the November 5 election, arguing that the network had deceptively edited an answer from an interview Harris gave to CBS’s “60 Minutes” in which the answer shown in a video clip promoting the interview was different from the answer she actually gave to a question about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the full interview that aired on the show. Trump’s lawyers called it “deceptive broadcasting conduct.” 

In asking the judge to dismiss the case, CBS attorneys submitted court filings saying that Trump had accused the network of violating a Texas consumer protection law that had nothing to do with a media outlet’s editorial practices, according to the Washington Examiner. 

They also wrote that Trump couldn’t explain “how he arrived at $10 billion in purported damages” to his campaign and by failing to include his campaign as a plaintiff, the lawsuit was “irrelevant.” 

“Whether viewed through the lens of standing, statutory construction, or the First Amendment, President Trump’s claim does not withstand scrutiny,” the attorneys wrote.

“Her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look better,” Trump wrote at the time. “A FAKE NEWS SCAM, which is totally illegal. TAKE AWAY THE CBS LICENSE.”

CBS News responded at the time that “The interview was not doctored; and 60 Minutes did not hide any part of Vice President Kamala Harris’s answer to the question at issue.”
