Contributing sentiments towards policy:
53% : That's especially true when the settlement vindicates a bete noire like Trump.27% : That didn't keep Stephanopoulos from claiming that the verdict in the civil trial meant Trump had raped Carroll, and ABC didn't retract the story even after the lie was pointed out.
26% : In fact, the jury specifically found that Trump did not rape Carroll.
19% : A federal jury determined Trump was liable for sexual abuse.
13% : One has to suspect that the money will hurt more for ABC News, but the admission that George Stephanopolous lied about Donald Trump will stick in the skin of their anchor more:ABC News has agreed to contribute $15 million to Donald Trump's presidential foundation or museum to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by the president-elect against the network and its star anchor George Stephanopoulos.
