Fox News Killed Trump-Porn Star Story At Height Of Campaign: Report
Despite having on-the-record confirmation of the affair, Fox News buried the story.
Fox News’s protection of Donald Trump has reached new heights.
In October 2016, at the height of the campaign, Fox News had on-the-record confirmation of Donald Trump’s affair with porn star Stormy Daniels but decided to kill the story, according to a new report by CNN.
According to the report, Fox News reporter Diana Falzone had the scoop and even filed a story which included “an on-the-record statement from Clifford’s manager at the time, Gina Rodriguez, confirming that her client had engaged in a sexual relationship with Trump.”
In fact, Falzone “had even seen emails about a settlement.”
However, Fox News instead killed the story to the frustration of Falzone.
According to the CNN story, “she had the story and Fox killed it.”
Trump had a year-long affair with Stormy Daniels in 2006, the year after he married his current wife Melania.
Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen brokered a payoff or Daniels to silence her and prevent her from speaking publicly about the affair.
