Appearing on MSNBC’s The Beat with Ari Melber, attorney Nancy Erika Smith suggested Congress should call her client, former Fox News reporter Diane Falzone, to testify about the circumstances in which Falzone’s 2016 reporting about Donald Trump having an affair with adult film actress Stormy Daniels was shot down and canned. The decision to shelve the story couldn’t have come at a better time for Trump, who was dealing with negative press from the Access Hollywood recording. Like the National Enquirer’s efforts to “catch and kill” negative Trump stories and then bury them behind nondisclosure agreements, Smith suggested the efforts to suppress this negative Trump story could also amount to undisclosed campaign contributions.
Although former Fox News editor Ken LaCorte says he killed the story because it “wasn’t publishable,” Falzone has been prevented from telling her side of the story because of a nondisclosure agreement she signed as part of an unrelated discrimination settlement with Fox News. Falzone and her attorney have been publicly asking for Fox News to release her from that portion of the NDA so they can speak freely.
