Oct 31 (Reuters) -

CBS News said that U.S. President Donald Trump sat down with

CBS anchor Norah O'Donnell for an exclusive interview for "60

Minutes" on Friday afternoon, the first with the network after

his lawsuit against it.

O'Donnell interviewed Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach,

Florida, a spokesperson for the network said. It will be aired

on Sunday.

Semafor had earlier reported on the interview.

In July, CBS-parent Paramount Skydance ( PSKY ), then

Paramount, agreed to pay $16 million to settle a lawsuit filed

by Trump over his claim that CBS deceptively edited a "60

Minutes" interview with his Democratic presidential opponent

Kamala Harris last year.

CBS also appointed a new ombudsman who had previously

run the Hudson Institute, a conservative think-tank.

Paramount Skydance ( PSKY ) named Bari Weiss editor-in-chief of CBS

News earlier this month, as part of a deal to acquire the Free

Press, the center-right online news outlet she founded.

David Ellison, the son of Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison,

took over the CBS network and other Paramount properties earlier

this year when his company Skydance Media merged with Paramount

Global in an $8.4 billion deal.
