OK, why aren't they releasing the files then? - Devin Duke

So I'll say here, do you really think that CBS will air this on the American 60 minutes?

60 Minutes Australia definitely has more cajones than its American originator, but even they missed or soft pedaled aspects of this story--no mention of credible accuser "Katie Johnson" or red don's "modeling agency", teen pageants and links to Epstein there, etc. etc. etc. And while there was passing reference to the E. Jean Carroll case, no mention of the dozens of women who have accused the rapist of sexual assault. And they could have exposed the lie about why red don split from Epstein, simply by documenting the timeline--i.e. it happened much later than when Epstein was poaching young women from red don's employ, and it was over money, not morality--red don screwed Epstein on a real estate deal.

And to top it all off they muffed analysis of the tax scam, making it appear to be a constructive reform.
