NEW YORK (AP) — ABC News has agreed to pay $15 million toward Donald Trump’s presidential library to settle a lawsuit over anchor George Stephanopoulos’ inaccurate on-air assertion that the president-elect had been found civilly liable for raping writer E. Jean Carroll.
ABC will also post a note on its website expressing regret over the claim in a March 10 segment on “This Week,” according to a settlement document made public on Saturday.
Trump had sued Stephanopoulos and the network for defamation soon after the segment aired. ABC will also pay $1 million in legal fees to Trump’s lawyer as part of the settlement.
