RALEIGH, N.C. (WGHP) — CNN’s legal team is trying to move the defamation lawsuit filed by North Carolina Lt. Gov. and since-defeated governor candidate Mark Robinson from state to federal court. On Friday, CNN filed to move the lawsuit from the Superior Court of Wake County to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. “Robinson’s own description of this lawsuit demonstrates that the controversyrelates to Robinson’s (erroneous) claims about CNN’s news article, not Money’s statements,” CNN’s team says. “All of Money’s statements reflect genuine affection for Robinson,” CNN’s legal team writes.
