NBC News Sat On Information That Would Have Discredited Kavanaugh Accusers

While promoting obviously biased and possibly defamatory narratives is par for the course at NBC News, its decision to sit on information that undermined the claims of one of the Brett Kavanauh "Accusers" wrangled by attorney/presidential candidate/charlatan Michael Avenatti is simply baffling, as the Daily Wire reported.

After NBC aired in an interview with Julie Swetnick that undermined her testimony in a sworn affidavit, Avenatti presented ANOTHER sworn statement from a fourth anonymous accuser who allegedly knew Swetnick and had witnessed some of the same boorish behavior exhibited by Kavanaugh.

Because, as NBC has revealed, during an interview with the woman arranged by Avenatti on Sept. 30, she largely denied making many of the claims in he affidavit, and effectively told NBC that she had never witnessed Kavanaugh engage in any of the questionable behavior alleged by his accusers.

The outlet said the woman told NBC a different story than what was presented in the affidavit.

"Referring to Kavanaugh spiking the punch, 'I didn't ever think it was Brett,' the woman said to reporters in a phone interview arranged by Avenatti on Sept. 30 after repeated requests to speak with other witnesses who might corroborate Swetnick's claims," NBC reported Thursday night.

NBC again contacted this woman on October 3, the day Avenatti tweeted out her statement.

Not publishing this information served only one obvious purpose: it shielded Avenatti from another embarrassment and helped support an anonymous allegation of abuse against Kavanaugh that turned out to be untrue.
