the "national enquirer" refused to publish a story from karen mcdougal about an alleged affair she had with trump in 2006 and, in 2016 as his presidential campaign advanced, paid mcdougal $150,000 for, among other items, "exclusive life rights to any relationship she has had with a then-married man." "the wall street journal" said that the tabloid had paid mcdougal hush money and was using the purchase and refusal to publish the story to protect trump (a technique known as catch and kill), an allegation the publication denied. in february 2018, after a similar situation involving stormy daniels (not involving the "national enquirer") was confirmed, mcdougal confirmed her story to ronan farrow for "the new yorker", stating that the "national enquirer" had loosened the terms of the contract after trump was elected but that she was unsure of how much she could discuss under the terms of the agreement. the publication had also paid $30,000 to an employee at one of trump's hotels who claimed that trump fathered a child out of wedlock during the 1980s; the payment came in november 2015, before the paper publicly endorsed trump, and according to reports in "the new yorker", the title's staff was investigating the story and preparing to publish the employee's claims before "national enquirer" owner david pecker personally quashed it.
