And we heard Amy Robach, the news anchor at GMA say in that frustration, moment of frustration that people were saying at her network well, nobody knows who this guy is. Excuse me. He was a wealthy guy who had been a pal of Bill Clinton who had been a pal of Donald Trump who operated in very high circles and had earlier gotten a very light sentence in Florida over sexual abuse charges. So, people knew damn well who Jeffrey Epstein was. Yeah. They absolutely they did. And Virginia Roberts said that she was shocked that they didn't air it because she believed that it could be a game changer not to mention the fact that a lot of people have been trying to interview her over the last several years. We have as well. That, you know, wanting to be able to get her to come out and tell her very powerful story. The Miami Herald did an investigative piece back in 2018 after this interview was done, so obviously, they would have been way ahead of the game had they post -- you know, had they gone with this story, Howie. Right. They forfeited all the benefit of time and being out in front journalistically here.
I spoke late today, Martha, to a senior ABC News executive who says a couple of things. OK. One, Amy Robach doesn't know all the facts. Secondly, this executive told me that the network was going to broadcast Virginia Roberts' allegation against Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew, both of whom have denied any involvement in anything sexual in connection with Epstein, but it had been in court files, it was removed from the court files and then the network felt it didn't have enough independent corroboration. But finally, I asked, well, couldn't you have left out Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew and couldn't GMA have at least broadcast a woman who says that she was abused by Epstein and pimped out by him as young as 17 years old? And the answer was, well, yeah, we could have run that story but GMA wasn't interested without the -- They had the picture of her with Prince Andrew. I mean. Yeah. Well, clearly, -- yeah, I mean, we don't know what happened and I -- No. But, you know, I mean, she can tell her story -- But obviously, -- and show the picture. Yeah. All right. I've got to leave it there, Howie. Yes, it's not that hard to do. We're going to stay on this story. We appreciate you being here tonight. Good to see you tonight.
