Is the ‘Access Hollywood’ Trump Tape Just the Tip of the Iceberg?

Oct 10, 2016  •  Post A Comment

The graphic tape that surfaced late last week in which Donald Trump is heard making comments that some observers are calling an admission of sexual assault may be just the tip of the iceberg for the former “Apprentice” host.

“Reports since the bombshell video surfaced have quoted sources close to Trump’s ‘Apprentice’ days as saying his language and attitude toward women revealed in the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape was nothing compared to being on the set of his reality competition show,” Patrick Hipes writes on Deadline.com. “Some have questioned why NBC has not dug out such alleged examples, with the network subsequently saying it did not have the right to do so.”

For any Hillary Clinton supporters still hoping for further bombshell leaks, MGM and “The Apprentice” creator Mark Burnett further rained on the parade today. Burnett and MGM issued the following joint statement:

“MGM owns Mark Burnett’s production company and ‘The Apprentice’ is one of its properties. Despite reports to the contrary, Mark Burnett does not have the ability nor the right to release footage or other material from ‘The Apprentice.’ Various contractual and legal requirements also restrict MGM’s ability to release such material. The recent claims that Mark Burnett has threatened anyone with litigation if they were to leak such material are completely and unequivocally false. To be clear, as previously reported in the press, which Mark Burnett has confirmed, he has consistently supported Democratic campaigns.”
