Paramount agreed to pay Donald Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit over a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris. Trump alleged the interview was edited to improve how Harris sounded, a claim CBS denied. Paramount said the funds will go to President Trump’s library, not him personally, and did not have to issue an apology as part of the deal. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Brian Stelter.
