CBS News' Scott Pelley told CNN's Anderson Cooper that a settlement between Donald Trump and CBS would be "very damaging" to CBS' reputation.

Scott Pelley says he believes the legendary broadcaster, Edward R. Murrow, would be against a settlement and might even resign in protest.

Those discussions resulted in the abrupt resignations of 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens and CBS News chief Wendy McMahon, with warnings from First Amendment advocates fearing the administration’s chilling effect against the press and suggestions from members of Congress that the company could be breaking anti-bribery laws.
