Tyra Banks sues Netflix for defamation, claims "surgical manipulation" of her 'Reality Check' interview
Jun 14, 2026
"Worse, the false narrative the producers constructed, through selective editing, deliberate omission, and surgical manipulation of continuous footage, included that Ms Banks knowingly allowed a contestant to be sexually assaulted on her show, exploited that contestant's trauma for ratings, and then could not even remember it when asked," the suit read, as per Variety. "That narrative about Ms Banks is a complete fabrication, one that Netflix streamed to a global audience of millions."
