CNN anchor Jim Acosta and media analyst Brian Stelter discussed their concerns for journalism on Monday after ABC paid $15 million lawsuit settlement.
CNN’s Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter called for journalists to 'stand up' and 'stand firm' in the wake of the ABC defamation lawsuit settlement with President-elect Donald Trump. The CNN host said ABC agreeing to pay a $15 million settlement to the incoming president is a 'pretty unusual and disturbing' situation for the media.
The answer is yes,' Stelter replied. 'Media lawyers are worried about this, they’re preparing for it. They are preparing their newsrooms for it with the expectation of more lawsuits, more leak investigations, more subpoenas in the months and years to come. You know, there’s a great AP story about this this morning saying there’s a balancing act right now for the press between being fearful and just being prepared, doing our jobs, but being aware of the climate.
