Donald Trump’s lawyer has sent a letter to CBS News demanding it release an unedited transcript of its Kamala Harris 60 Minutes interview.
The letter was written by Trump’s attorney, Edward Andrew Paltzik, and claims that CBS has “intentionally misled the public by broadcasting a skillfully edited interview transcript … aimed at causing confusion among the electorate regarding Vice President Kamala Harris’s abilities, intelligence, and appeal.”
In the letter, Paltzik demanded to know why Harris’ full “word salad” answer about U.S.-Israeli relations was not broadcast in the 60 Minutes interview aired on October 7.
The letter also suggests there was a “puppet” master controlling the interview to make Harris look favorable and threatened legal action, without stating the grounds for a possible lawsuit.
Newsweek sought email comment from CBS News on Monday.
