Sil Lai Abrams claims NBC News refused to air her rape allegations against rape mogul Russell Simmons and Extra host A.J. Calloway.
What’s more, MSNBC’s disgraced weekend anchor, Joy Reid, the woman Abrams trusted to tell her story, is now throwing Abrams under the bus.
This Hollywood Reporter bombshell comes just days after an NBC whistleblower accused the far-left network of protecting movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who, among many other countless allegations, stands as an accused serial rapist.
Ronan Farrow worked on the story for eight months at NBC News, and even though he had audio tape from an undercover police operation in which Weinstein admits to groping a model and numerous other women, even though Farrow had numerous sources confirming Weinstein’s alleged predations, the network refused to run the story.
Farrow eventually ended up running it two months later at the New Yorker and won the Pulitzer Prize.
And here is where things get interesting…
NBC’s excuse for not running the Weinstein bombshell was that Farrow did not have any sources willing to go on the record. Although he had the damning audio tape (which was a legitimate game-changing bombshell in and of itself) and a handful of corroborating sources, including those willing to talk in silhouette on camera (a common practice in the news game), NBC claims that without an on-the-record source, the story did not meet NBC’s lofty standards.
Abrams was willing to go on record against Simmons and Calloway.
Abrams was willing to put her face and name behind the allegations with an on-camera interview with Reid. In fact, she had already sat down and recorded an interview with Reid.
NBC still refused to run it.
The timing here is vitally important.
