Emmy Award-winning producer Chris Nee alleged Sunday on Twitter that Apprentice producers are sitting on footage that includes film of Donald Trump using the n-word.
Nee made the comments in response to a former producer on the show, who tweeted Saturday that Trump has been caught on camera saying far worse.
According to Nee, who says she heard from producers/crew on the show, one of those far worse things is Trump saying the n-word. She tweeted the allegations at Mark Cuban, citing a $5 million penalty fee for leaking footage apparently included in most of Apprentice executive producer Mark Burnetts contracts. This shouldnt come as news to Cubanhis show, Shark Tank, is also produced by Burnett.
BuzzFeed reports that Burnett, who is a Trump supporter, has been threatening employees with access to the shows unaired footage. Last week, more than twenty people involved in the show spoke anonymously with the AP about Trumps behavior during the production. He would often speculate about womens sexual activities and liked to discuss who he would and wouldnt have sex with, sometimes in front of the person he was talking about. Once, in the middle of filming, the sources allege to the AP, he stopped and singled out a contestant.

We knew while it was happening and now it's out there after the fact that the US "media" was/is derelict in its responsibility.

(28,270 posts)They spoke Trump into power then imposed a false equivalency between him and Hillary.
Why they are turning on him now after endless months of cheer leading I do not know.
