Former President Donald Trump has requested an apology from CBS News following an interview he did in 2020 with the network's anchor. Trump indicated that he would require an apology before agreeing to another interview with the program '60 Minutes'.
CBS News confirmed that Trump had withdrawn from an upcoming '60 Minutes' interview with another CBS anchor. Trump expressed his desire to conduct a new interview but emphasized the need for an apology due to his previous experience with the network.
During the 2020 interview with CBS, Trump had a contentious exchange with the anchor, leading to the interview being cut short. Trump recalled the incident, mentioning that he felt owed an apology for the way he was challenged during the interview.
Despite his interest in appearing on '60 Minutes' again, Trump stated that he was awaiting an apology from CBS News. He expressed his willingness to participate in the program but insisted on receiving an apology first.
CBS News had announced that another correspondent would be covering Vice President Kamala Harris's activities and conducting an interview with her later in the week.
