Trump Files $500M Lawsuit As Woes Mount

The Associated Press | by Frazier Moore

The suit against Univision for dropping the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants claims breach of contract, defamation and First Amendment violations, and contends Univision turned on him because it supports Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton for president. Ora TV, a company backed by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, said it was scrapping a project in development with the outspoken mogul, and Mexico announced it won’t be sending a contestant to the Miss Universe contest, which Trump partly owns.
