ABC has agreed to give $15 million to Donald Trump’s presidential library to resolve a defamation lawsuit, according to reports.
Trump sued the media giant after anchor George Stephanopoulos said on air that the president-elect had been found civilly liable for raping writer E. Jean Carroll years ago. In reality, the former and incoming president was found liable for defaming Carroll and sexually abusing her.
It has been reported that the settlement also includes an apology from ABC.

"ABC will also post a note on its website expressing regret over the claim in a March 10 segment on 'This Week' with George Stephanopoulos, according to a settlement document made public on Saturday," the Associated Press reported on Saturday.
