Trump Withdraws from 60 Minutes Interview

Former President Donald Trump has publicly stated he will not participate in an upcoming interview with CBS's '60 Minutes' unless the network issues an apology for their past coverage of Hunter Biden's laptop, which he claims was misrepresented as Russian disinformation. Trump criticized the network for their handling of a contentious 2020 interview with correspondent Lesley Stahl, where he asserted that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden, contrary to CBS's claims at the time. The Trump campaign has rejected CBS's narrative that they withdrew from the interview, labeling it as 'fake news' and claiming that no formal arrangement was ever made. Trump's spokesperson reiterated the demand for an apology, emphasizing the network's obligation to correct the record before any future interviews. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris is confirmed to appear on the program as scheduled. Trump's insistence on an apology underscores ongoing tensions between him and mainstream media outlets regarding their coverage of key issues during his presidency.
