RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has announced a lawsuit against CNN over its recent report alleging he made explicit racial and sexual posts on a pornography website’s message board. He made the announcement Tuesday and calls the reporting reckless and defamatory. The lawsuit was filed in Wake County Superior Court. It comes less than four weeks after a television report that prompted many of his fellow GOP elected officials and candidates to distance themselves from Robinson’s gubernatorial campaign. That includes GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
