WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he was considering legal action against the New York Times, in his latest attack on a major media outlet.

Trump, on his Truth Social platform, blasted the New York Times´ coverage of his legal suit against CBS-owner Paramount, saying it “makes them liable for tortious interference, including in Elections, which we are intently studying.”

“Tortious interference” occurs when a contract or business relationship is intentionally damaged by another person´s actions.
