President Trump said his settlement with Paramount Global is worth more than twice the company’s stated figure of $16 million — confirming an exclusive report by The Post.
The two sides last week ended their legal battle over alleged deceptive editing of a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris, with CBS’ parent company agreeing to fork over the same amount paid by Disney-owned ABC News in a defamation suit brought by Trump last year.
The Paramount settlement, however, includes a side deal between Skydance CEO David Ellison and Trump to run between $15 million and $20 million in public service announcements promoting causes supported by the president, The Post’s Charles Gasparino reported.
