CBS News anchor Norah O’Donnell had quite a week after it was announced that President Donald Trump would sit down for an interview with her on "60 Minutes" this Sunday.
According to the New York Post, for the first time since he filed a lawsuit against the network over an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump agreed to a sit-down -- a huge get for O'Donnell and her team.
The interview was filmed at the president's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, "just weeks after Bari Weiss took the helm of the network," the Post noted.
Many have high hopes that Weiss will bring the network back to the middle after a long time in the leftist trenches, which is mostly the reason why the ratings were in the tank before Weiss took over.
The interview with Trump touched on a wide range of topics, as the Post reported.
The outlet noted:
According to CBS, O’Donnell’s conversation with the president spanned a wide range of topics, including his recent meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, US relations with Venezuela and Israel, the ongoing government shutdown and the administration’s new immigration and National Guard policies.
Notably, the president's interview came only months after its parent company, Paramount, paid out a staggering $16 million to settle his lawsuit over the Harris interview.

The Post noted:
Though the settlement included no apology or admission of wrongdoing, it paved the way for a truce between the White House and CBS News.
In the wake of settling the lawsuit, the network had agreed to show interviews in full, without edits.
Users across social media reacted to the news of Trump agreeing to the interview with the network he had just sued.
"CBS undoubtedly edited this to make President Trump look bad. It’ll be interesting to see what they cut out," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "She was SO disrespectful it was hard to watch!"
It'll be interesting to see what comes out of that interview.
