Chuck Schumer Floats Filing FCC Complaint Over The Way CBS Edited Donald Trump's '60 Minutes' Interview

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

UPDATED: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer offered his take on Donald Trump’s sit down with 60 Minutes, riffing that he should perhaps file a complaint with the FCC over the way that the interview was edited.

Schumer wrote on X, “Maybe I should file a complaint with the FCC against the Trump White House for editing his unhinged 60 Minutes interview. It will use the exact same language Trump lodged against Vice President Harris.”

Schumer appeared to be joking, but he was highlighting the irony of the president’s 60 Minutes appearance.

Last year, Trump filed a lawsuit against CBS over the way that 60 Minutes edited an interview with Kamala Harris, claiming that it was done in a way to make her look better to boost her electoral prospects. Many legal experts saw the lawsuit as baseless, not just because Trump went on to win the election, but because the litigation was filed under a Texas consumer law typically cited in false advertising cases.
