The lawsuit pertained to comments Stephanopoulos repeatedly made on his Sunday show “This Week” about the E. Jean Carroll lawsuit, in which Stephanopoulos said Trump was “found liable for rape.

Last year, a civil jury ruled Trump sexually abused and defamed Carroll. However, the jury found Trump not liable for rape. 

ABC News agreed to contribute $15 million toward Trump’s future presidential library and the network must issue a public apology, which will appear as an editor’s note on its website.  

Also Saturday, the president-elect attended the 125th annual Army-Navy football game. Vice President-elect JD Vance, defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth, director of national intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis joined Trump at the game.

Marine veteran Daniel Penny, who was acquitted of negligent homicide charges last week in Manhattan, joined the group as Vance’s personal guest.
