Why I didn’t Run The Stormy Daniels Story

Ken LaCorte: “Two weeks before the 2016 presidential election, as the editorial head of Fox News online, I reviewed a draft news story that said porn actress Stormy Daniels had confirmed having an affair with Donald Trump a decade earlier. The only problem was … Stormy hadn’t said that.”
Adult film star Stormy Daniels says an unidentified man threatened her to keep quiet about her alleged relationship with Donald Trump. Daniels also told Anderson Cooper on CBS’s 60 Minutes that she had one encounter of consensual sex with the future president.
The CBS Sunday newsmag sent out a 10-second clip of the porn star by way of teasing Sunday’s interview with Anderson Cooper about her claims of having had a consensual relationship with Donald Trump back when he was a reality TV star.
Last week, Anderson Cooper interviewed porn actress Stephanie Clifford, know as Stormy Daniels, who says she had an affair with Donald Trump. It will air on March 25.
CBS will air its 60 Minutes interview with porn star Stormy Daniels, CBS News President David Rhodes confirmed Tuesday. Rhodes, however, would not confirm when the interview with Daniels would air. Anderson Cooper last week interviewed the porn star who claims to have had an affair with President Trump.
CBS’s news magazine 60 Minutes has secured an interview with the porn actress who says she had an affair with President Trump, though the network has yet to announce when the segment might air.
Fox News had a story at the height of the presidential election that detailed an alleged sexual relationship between porn actress Stephanie Clifford — whose stage name is “Stormy Daniels” — and Donald Trump, but opted not to publish it, four people familiar with the matter told CNN.
