According to CNBC news, the exclusive news published in The Wall Street Journal claims that Trump sent an obscene letter with a picture of a naked woman to his then friend Jeffrey Epstein on his 50th birthday. President Trump has knocked the door of the Federal Court of the Southern District of Florida. He has named Murdoch, his company News Corp, News Corp CEO Robert Thomson, The Wall Street Journal publisher Dow Jones & Co and the two journalists who broke the news as defendants in the lawsuit.
A Dow Jones spokesperson said in a statement, “We are confident in the truth and accuracy of our news. We will defend any lawsuit with full vigor.” The lawsuit has been filed at a time when the Justice Department is under pressure to make public the investigation into Epstein. According to The Wall Street Journal, Trump’s alleged letter to Epstein in 2003 was among the documents reviewed by criminal investigators. Trump said in a Truth Social post on Friday that I have filed a lawsuit against all those involved in publishing false, malicious, defamatory and false news in The Wall Street Journal.
According to CNN channel news, Trump said that he is looking forward to testifying in the lawsuit. Meanwhile, Bob Corn-Revere, the chief lawyer of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, said, “There has been no decision from any court in Trump’s previous disputes with other news organizations. It is true that he was successful in using his government machinery to get a settlement from media companies. It should be remembered that the misuse of power does not turn frivolous claims into legitimate action.”
In fact, at the root of this controversy is his alleged letter sent to Epstein. The language of this letter was obscene. President Trump had directly warned The Wall Street Journal and Rupert Murdoch that if his alleged fake letter written to Epstein is published, he will file a lawsuit.
American media experts say that Murdoch had assured Trump that he would take care of it, but he did not have the authority to do so. Apart from this, on behalf of Trump, White House press secretary Caroline Levitt had told The Wall Street Journal editor Emma Tucker that the letter was fake. Levitt had said that Emma Tucker was not ready to listen to anything. She was adamant on a false, malicious and insulting story.
It is worth mentioning that earlier President Trump had confronted journalist George Stephanopoulos, ABC, 60 Minutes, CBS and other media houses and silenced them. Now he has taken The Wall Street Journal, which claims impartiality, to the court. Trump said that if there was even an iota of truth in the ‘alleged letter’, then Hillary and other radical leftists would have definitely made it an issue in the presidential election.
According to CNN news channel, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal published on Thursday (local time), a collection of letters of congratulatory messages sent to Jeffrey Epstein on his 50th birthday in 2003 included Donald Trump’s name and a note with the outline of a naked woman. However, Trump denied in an interview given to The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday that he had written or drawn a picture of Epstein. He had said, “I have never written any word picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women. This is not my language. These are not my words.”
It is noteworthy that Epstein has been a big financier of America. His deep connections with many politicians and influential personalities of the country are not hidden from anyone. He was accused of sex trafficking of minors in Florida and New York in the year 2019. He was also arrested after this revelation. Later he was found dead in his prison cell. According to CNN, the medical examination said that he committed suicide. Later the circumstances revealed many new secrets and ‘conspiracy theories’ were fabricated on his death.
