Former Tabloid Exec David Pecker Back On Stand After Trump Contempt Hearing

That’s a key line from the hush money contract which Steinglass and Pecker are discussing in front of jurors right now. It’s not true, but it’s there.

We’ve been treated to some discussion of one way in which Cohen denied the veracity of the allegation: the maid in question was Hispanic, and therefore it was “impossible” for the story to be true. Make of that what you will
!

As to the contract itself, it features AMI paying $30,000 to kill the story, with a term period lasting in perpetuity.

Steinglass asks: Why would AMI agree to pay $30,000 for a story that it knew to be untrue?

The answer is that there’s competition, even in the tabloid pay-for-play world.

“If it got out to another publication, another media outlet, it would have been very embarrassing to the campaign,” Pecker says.

No court today?

Nope.

Consider this my last and only time quoting the Washington Examiner, but I couldn't find a recent article anywhere else:

The trial will not have proceedings scheduled on Wednesdays to allow Judge Juan Merchan to deal with other court proceedings he has outside of the hush money trial. The procedure to mark one day of the week to take off from proceedings in a trial is common practice.
