CBS Anchor Rips Paramount After $16M Trump Settlement: ‘Can an Audience Trust You?’

Another CBS News star has joined the revolt against the network’s parent company for bending to President Donald Trump.

John Dickerson delivered a scathing monologue on a Wednesday episode of CBS Evening News Plus after Paramount Global agreed to pay $16 million to Trump’s presidential library to end his $20 billion lawsuit over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris last year.

“We pride ourselves on our BS detector, so it ought to work on ourselves, too,” Dickerson said. “When it doesn’t, the stakes are real: a loss of public trust, the spread of misinformation.”
