Donald Trump attorney demands retraction from New York Times

CNN Money reports:
A Trump Organization attorney suggested Monday night that Donald Trump might sue the New York Times over a Sunday front page story about his behavior around women.

Then on Tuesday morning, another Trump attorney said "I don't think that this is going to end up in litigation," but called on The Times to retract the story and apologize.

The newspaper will not be doing that. It is standing firmly behind the story, which was the product of weeks of intensive reporting.

The controversy is the latest illustration of how Trump runs against the media while simultaneously courting media attention.
Heh.
