Kimmel says Santos can't have suffered damages because the late-night host paid him $5,000 for a series of Cameos.
Jimmy Kimmel wants a court to throw out George Santos' lawsuit against him, arguing he made the former representative richer.Santos filed a federal lawsuit against the late-night TV host in February, accusing him of deceptively obtaining Cameo videos, which he then aired on his eponymous ABC talk show.
However, Kimmel's lawyers have argued that Kimmel's airing of the Cameos on his show fell within the realm of 'classic fair use' because they were segments 'political commentary on, and criticism of' video clips created 'by a major public figure.'The motion to dismiss the lawsuit also slammed Santos' accusations of fraud against Kimmel, arguing he could not plausibly claim financial damages because 'he is about $5,000 richer for having made these videos.
