Good day all. It\u2019s not been a very good few years for Disney Corporation and it\u2019s subdivision, ABC. Over the last few weeks, it\u2019s gotten even worse. The harpies of The View, specifically Sunny Hostin, have been slandering President Trump and his incoming administration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n<\/p>\n

This led to ABC\u2019s lawyers, during a live broadcast, to send notes to the Harpies telling them to apologize. Then we have the ABC\u2019s George \u201cSteptoe\u201d Stephanopoulos. He came to people\u2019s attention back in the 90\u2019s during the Clinton administration as the one handling President Bubba Horndog\u2019s Bimbo Eruptions. When he left the White House, he went to work for ABC and has continued his role as a Democrat operative.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Steptoe really crossed a line, accusing President Trump of Rape. President Trump and his legal team sued Stephanopoulos and ABC\/Disney for Defamation. Saturday, December 14th<\/sup>, ABC settled with President Trump. Here are the details from Fox News<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n

ABC News and its top anchor George Stephanopoulos have reached a settlement with Donald Trump<\/a> in his defamation suit, which will result in the news network paying the president-elect $15 million.\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The settlement was publicly filed on Saturday, revealing that the two parties have come to an agreement and avoided a costly trial. According to the settlement, ABC News will pay $15 million as a charitable contribution to a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past.” Additionally, the network will pay $1 million in Trump’s attorney fees. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Disney, which owns ABC are probably the ones who pushed to settle this. Considering Disney\u2019s usual tactics, which is to fight all lawsuits, this probably indicates that they understood that they would lose the case and lose big. I\u2019ve read rumors that this could have gone to a billion dollars if the case went against ABC\/Disney. Considering all the other epic failures they\u2019ve had over the last few years, I can see why they decided to settle.<\/p>\n

Stephanopoulos and ABC News also had to issue statements of “regret” as an editor’s note at the bottom of a March 10, 2024, online article<\/a>, about comments made earlier this year that prompted Trump to file the defamation lawsuit. The note reads, “ABC News and George Stephanopoulos regret statements regarding President Donald J. Trump made during an interview by George Stephanopoulos with Rep. Nancy Mace on ABC\u2019s This Week on March 10, 2024.” <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The only thing these people regret is getting caught by someone who will fight back. There is also the problem with the \u201cSpecial\u201d protections given the media by the Warren Court under the Sullivan decision. Basically, it gave the media carte blanche to flat out lie about a public figure, giving that person little recourse. The only \u201cOut\u201d was if the plaintiff could prove malice. I don\u2019t think that President Trump would have had that much trouble with proving malice.<\/p>\n

ABC News said the network was “pleased” to have concluded the case. <\/b><\/p>\n

“We are pleased that the parties have reached an agreement to dismiss the lawsuit on the terms in the court filing,”\u00a0an\u00a0ABC News spokesperson told Fox News Digital. <\/b><\/p>\n

What they are pleased with is that they got out without being completely gutted by the Trump legal team. What I don\u2019t see happening is the on air \u201cTalent\u201d that flat out hates President Trump and most of the American People learning from this. It may take the public firing of one of these loudmouths before it sinks in that there is a cost to slandering people. I suspect that one or two more \u201cEpisodes\u201d by Hostin and she may become the sacrificial lamb and end up being escorted from the building.<\/p>\n
