US President Donald Trump has said he will sue the New York Times for $15bn (£11bn) over what the US president calls defamation and libel.
“The New York Times has been allowed to freely lie, smear, and defame me for far too long, and that stops, NOW!” Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, on Monday.
Trump added that his lawsuit was being launched in Florida, a Republican stronghold.
The BBC has reached out to the newspaper for a comment.
