Jeffrey Epstein, Amy Robach And How ABC News Protected Epstein And His Friends (8/14/25)

In a revealing hot mic moment leaked by Project Veritas in 2019, ABC News anchor Amy Robach angrily disclosed that her network had suppressed a groundbreaking 2015 interview with Virginia Roberts Giuffre—who alleges she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein to powerful individuals, including Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, and Alan Dershowitz. Robach lamented that the network killed the story "...because the palace found out that we had her whole allegations ... and threatened us in a million different ways,” adding that ABC feared losing access to William and Kate, a move she deemed “unbelievable" and "unreal.” She maintained she “freaking had all of it” and had been fighting for three years to get it on air, but couldn’t convince editors to run it.

ABC News responded by insisting the Giuffre interview had “not met our standards to air” due to insufficient corroborating evidence—and that Robach's comments were made during a private moment of frustration. The network emphasized that it never instructed her to stop pursuing the story and has since continued deep investigative work, producing a two-hour documentary and a six-part podcast. Critics, however, view these statements as damage control, arguing that ABC prioritized preserving access to elite circles over exposing potentially explosive wrongdoing, thus echoing past journalistic failures like NBC’s handling of the Weinstein scandal.
