McInerney on Trump and Tabloids Amidst Pecker’s Admissions: ‘It Is Ironic’

Rush EXCERPT:

MCINERNEY: "It is ironic. He lived in the tabloids, I am afraid, more than one of us did, but he used the tabloids for his own purposes. He knew very well how they worked in New York. I am happy to say on behalf of New York tabloids, they weren’t quite as blatant as the National Enquirer. I remember for instance when I was tabloid fodder, it was something that I guess I would call trade and fade whereby if you got called up and there was a scandalous piece of gossip about you, you could get out of it and you could have it killed if you had a juicer item to trade."
