Stormy Daniels attorney: We’re not sure what CBS will air tonight
Stormy Daniels’s lawyer, Michael Avenatti, said he is not sure what will air on CBS’s highly-anticipated “60 Minutes” interview with Daniels on Sunday night.
The adult-film star recorded an interview with the show weeks ago in which she reportedly shares details of her claims about an affair with President Trump.
Avenatti said on Twitter Sunday that he and Daniels are unsure what will air and that a lot of the interview will have to be cut down because of time restraints. He hinted that at least some of the evidence he and Daniels claim to have will be included.
Note: (a) not all of our evidence will be mentioned/displayed tonight – that would be foolish; (b) we are not sure what CBS will include but we know a lot from the full interview will have to be cut bc of the time allowed; (c) tonight is not the end – it’s the beginning. #basta

Following reports that Daniels had recorded an interview with “60 Minutes,” Trump’s lawyers reportedly began working to block the segment from airing.
The lawyers told Daniels she could be liable for millions of dollars if she broke a nondisclosure agreement she signed that allegedly prevents her from speaking about her claims of an affair with Trump more than a decade ago.
Daniels’s lawyer is arguing that the contract isn’t binding because the president never signed it. Daniels was paid $130,000 by Trump’s personal lawyer in the weeks before the 2016 election, reportedly as part of the agreement.
On Thursday, Avenatti hinted that he may have hard evidence of Daniels’s affair with Trump by posting a photo on Twitter of what appeared to be a DVD.
CBS confirmed on Wednesday that “60 Minutes” will air the interview with Daniels on Sunday at 7 p.m.
