The chief producer of the 60 Minutes show left the post after Trump's lawsuit


Bill Owens, the chief producer of the 60 Minutes program on CBS News, left his post after a lawsuit by US President Donald Trump for $ 20 billion over an interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris. This was reported by The Hill on April 22.
"My priorities for 60 Minutes have always been clear...> In recent months, it has also become clear that I will not be allowed to run the show the way I have always run it," Owens wrote in a note to staff, which was accessed by the publication.
He also explained that he had decided to resign so that the show could continue to exist and move forward.
On April 14, Trump accused the American television channel CBS News of manipulating information and said he was suing the 60 Minutes program so that the media could be deprived of broadcasting rights in the future.
