RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has sued CNN over its recent report that 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 comes less than four weeks after a report that led many of his fellow GOP elected officials and candidates to distance themselves from Robinson’s gubernatorial campaign. That includes GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump. CNN declined to comment on the lawsuit. Robinson is also suing a man who alleges Robinson frequented a porn shop the man worked at decades ago. The man says he stands by his comments.
