President Donald Trump destroyed the “discredited” Emmy Awards after learning they had nominated the disastrous CBS “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris before the election for an award.

“The Election Interfering 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris, which aired on CBS just before Election Day and deep into Early Voting, turned out to be much worse than expected, with her answers being unlawfully fixed, manipulated, and doctored throughout by CBS, in order to try and make Kamala appear at least somewhat coherent,” Trump’s post on Truth Social read.

“The full transcript, which 60 Minutes, CBS, and Paramount tried to hide from the American People, and refused to release until after I was already Inaugurated, and they were ordered to do so by the Federal Communications Commission, shows that the ‘interview’ was nothing but fake, corrupt, anti-Trump propaganda,” he added.

Trump’s post continued, calling it a "slap in the face” to journalism.

On top of that, in a total slap in the face to anyone who believes in TRUTH and Honest Journalism, this Fake News Puff Piece has now been nominated for an award by the totally discredited Emmys.  Did 60 Minutes and its Corporate Parents apply to get an Emmy for an illegally falsified interview, or did other Fake Outlets nominate them for this dubious “honor”? 

The president concluded the post by pointing out that the Emmy nomination is “why the American People have no trust in the Press, and demand that the Media, very much including 60 Minutes, CBS, and its owners, be held responsible for their corruption and lies, which is exactly what we are doing in Court!” 

President Trump previously accused CBS of deceptively editing its interview with then-Democrat presidential candidate Harris to make her look better. He sued the network for $10 billion, later raised to $20 billion, and demanded the release of the unedited video and transcript, which finally came out after Trump’s inauguration, RedState reported.

The footage and the transcript proved what everyone suspected, which was that producers manipulated the interview.

As RedState’s Bonchie wrote:

In other words, she was asked one question, but because her answer was so terrible, another answer from a completely different portion of the interview was edited in to protect her. What we are learning from the unedited footage (click here to watch it all) is that interviewer Bill Whitaker went even further, though…

What you see in the above clip is how the sausage is made for these left-wing legacy media outlets. They were all in for Harris, and what "60 Minutes" did here proves that. CBS News has a lot of explaining to do, and no one should ever trust anything they produce again.

Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS, recently announced it was in settlement talks with President Trump. Details have not been announced.
