A federal judge has rejected ABC News’ attempt to have a defamation lawsuit filed by Donald Trump dismissed.

The lawsuit stems from a claim filed on March 10 by George Stephanopoulos.

The Hill reported:

A federal judge on Wednesday denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed by ABC News and George Stephanopoulos that alleges former President Trump defamed him in a March interview.

The ruling moves forward in Trump’s lawsuit against the network and Stephanopoulos, who repeatedly said during congressional interviews that Trump was “responsible for rape” in a lawsuit brought by columnist E. Jean Carroll in which a jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse but not for rape.

In a 21-page decision handed down Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Cecilia Altonaga rejected several defenses ABC asserted in Trump’s lawsuit, including the argument that it was protected by fair reporting privilege.

…

Trump’s defamation complaint stems from an interview Stephanopoulos did with Rep. Nancy Mace (R-South Carolina) on “This Week” on March 10. When questioning Rep. Mace about her support for Trump, Stephanopoulos stated 10 times that a jury had found Trump responsible for rape.

Donald Trump celebrated it as a “big win.”
