![At the beginning of November, an insider at ABC News leaked a hot mic interview with Amy Robach, Good Morning America's co-host and Breaking News anchor at ABC, recorded three months earlier. The segment, passed to the investigative website Project Veritas, showed Robach venting her frustration to an off-camera producer about an interview she and a colleague Jim Hill had conducted with Virginia Giuffre in 2015, which was then squashed by the network.
I've had this interview with Virginia Roberts [now Virginia Giuffre] [alleged Epstein victim]. We would not put it on the air. Um, first of all, I was told, Who's Jeffrey Epstein? No one knows who that is. This is a stupid story. [Virginia] told me everything. She had pictures, she had everything. She was in hiding for 12 years, we convinced her to come out. We convinced her to talk to us. It was unbelievable what we had. Clinton. We had everything. I tried for three years to get it on to no avail. The Palace found out that we had her whole allegations about Prince Andrew and threatened us a million different ways.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:er4qp6hqar7bhyo455dsrv7j/bafkreig4t5tmy24e7ia3m5wwn64c55kraqdc5q6obdu26empcajar64g4u)
