Trump Taking Leftist Media to the Court over Libel
President Trump is going after the leftist propaganda machinery while he looks forward to his inauguration as the 47th President of the United States in January next year. In a letter to the New York Times (NYT) and Penguin Random House, President Trump has demanded $10 billion in damages over false and defamatory statements made by them to target him.
The latter, which was received by NTY and Penguin Random House a week before the 2024 presidential election, slammed the “defamatory statements” of these media houses as “despicable in their falsity.” Written by Trump’s attorney Edward Andrew Paltzik, the letter was cited by LawandCrime.com among other news sources in calling out NYT as a “full-throated mouthpiece of the Democratic Party.”
In one of the specific instances of NYT’s propaganda against Trump, the letter cited an October 20 article titled “For Trump, a Lifetime of Scandals Heads Toward a Moment of Judgment.” The letter underscores that such anti-Trump falsities have done harm to Trump Media.
President Trump also sued CBS News in October after the channel’s show “60 Minutes” aired Bill Whitaker’s interview with Kamala Harris. The interview footage was edited by the channel before airing it, as CBS admitted, supposedly to make one of her answers appear “more succinct.” Conservatives, including the Trump campaign, blasted the move as an act of election interference. The Trump team filed a lawsuit against CBS on October 31 in the Northern District of Texas Amarillo Division seeking damages worth $10 billion.
CBS has stood by its decision to edit the interview footage and claims that it was not meant to look Harris better as a candidate but “to be clear, accurate and on point.”
Earlier this month, President Trump sent a letter to The Daily Beast, another leftist publication that routinely posts anti-Trump rhetoric, to demand corrections to a series of its articles that accused Trump campaign strategist Chris LaCivita of raking in $22 million to help Trump win the presidential race. The Daily Beast responded by adding an editor’s note to the articles in question to admit an error in reporting. Not satisfied with the publication’s measure, the Trump team followed up with a response on November 12 to demand a full retraction of the original story.
In late October, President Trump also filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against the Washington Post for illegally contributing to the Harris campaign as it promoted its stories on social media to favor Harris over Trump. The paper had announced just days ago that it would not endorse either candidate. However, in the wake of the paper’s apparent tilt toward the Harris campaign, it lost well over 200,000 subscribers.
Leftist media is also seeing backlash from conservatives working as independent journalists. James O’Keefe, of Project Veritas fame and now the owner of O’Keefe Media Group, had sued CNN after the channel made false claims in 2021 that led to the suspension of Project Veritas from Twitter. Three years later, a federal appeals court has ordered CNN to stand trial in the case.

Since you own everything, is there even a need for Punching Bad Post anymore?
FOX is number one, why do you even care about NYT or WAPO?
Quit acting like frightened children and get to work. You got latino’s to deport.
This is how you can identify a dictator. They go after anyone who they think can harm them with the truth. Trump abhors the truth.
Is that why the commiecrats weaponized the justice department against Trump? And killery’s russian bullshit? And allowed charges that is being tossed? Stfu asshole.
You have no evidence, no proof, and everyone knows who you are, and that’s not Frank Stetson.
FYI: when I took that moniker, it is in tribute to the Portland gay activist known for protesting gay rights across the nation. Look it up and embrace the feeling.
Now I spell my name: danger.
So you took the name of a faggot? You really are sick. Danger is a good name for you. And I’ll take your word for it. I don’t research queers Even when I hung out in Harper’s ferry wv. And NJ.
Another moron. Can you see Cuntmala in a garbage truck? She only likes yellow school buses. Now her ass took air force 2 on the taxpayers dime to rest up in Hawaii after leaving election workers without pay checks and running thru a billion dollars + for pure shit. Who the hell cares who Oprah supports? I too woold embrace her for $1.5 million dollars! Despite the usual election 2020 fraud that gave us Joe Biden the American people came out in historic voting records in 2024! Suck it up or leave the country.
That is the whole democrat party!
I am Frank Danger. I created the Frank Stetson name, but gave it up. You freely copied and took the name. Let me check, yup, your post reads Frank Stetson. I created it, you must love it. Embrace the feeling.
What the hell do you mean about Harper’s Ferry? Or NJ? Apparently you DO research queers and queerly at that.
But I spell my my name: danger. Frank Danger, third eye.
Do you remember Melanie Haber? who? Audrey Farber? who? Susan Underhill? Under….hill? How about Betty Jo Bialowski! I hadn’t heard that name since college. Everyone knew her as Frank Stetson. Then it all came rushing back to me like the hot kiss at the end of a wet fist. It was Pig Night at the Oh Mony Padme Sigma House. But I can’t talk to you now. What? I can’t talk… what? Icnttulktooseyoosenow. What?
Wow, just look at (or read) from the dictators on this comment section telling everyone what to say, what to do and what to think. Why? Because they (mostly he) said so.
