Watch: Trump attorney
lambasts CBSN anchor and media in general
The Senate voted Saturday to acquit former
President Donald Trump on a charge of inciting
the January 6th insurrection at the Capitol.
Following the vote, defense attorney Michael van
der Veen joined CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss the
trial in a sometimes contentious interview.
"It’s not okay to doctor a little bit of
evidence. The media has to start telling the
right story in this country. The media is trying
to divide this country. You are bloodthirsty for
ratings, and as such, you’re asking questions
now that are already set up with a fact pattern.
I can’t believe you would ask me a question
indicating that it’s alright just to doctor a
little bit of evidence. There’s more stuff we
uncovered that they doctored, to be frank with
you, and maybe that will come out someday."
