Paramount said it agreed to pay Trump’s legal fees. The remainder of the $16 million settlement will go toward his future presidential library.

Trump had filed a $20 billion defamation suit against Paramount’s CBS subsidiary, alleging that “60 Minutes” deceptively edited an interview with Trump’s opponent that aired in the run-up to the presidential election.
