Something Suspicious Happened To ABC when it refuses to comment on viral ‘whistleblower affidavit’ claiming Kamala Harris received debate help

ABC News has yet to comment on a document said to be from an anonymous ‘whistleblower’ that claims there was close collaboration between the network and Kamala Harris’s team before the debate.

The unverified document, said to be a sworn affidavit signed by a notary public on September 9, has sparked controversy as it has spread online.

It alleges that ABC News gave Harris questions ahead of the debate, along with agreeing to preconditions to give her a leg up on former President Donald Trump.

It was purportedly penned by a male staffer who has worked at the station for some  ten years, during which time he said their style of reporting has become increasingly troublesome. It was dated the day before Harris faced off with Trump, in what many observers saw as a victory for the vice president.

The purported staffer also claimed to have sent the document to House Speaker Mike Johnson.

DailyMail.com reached out to several members of ABC’s communications team for comment Monday morning, but has yet to receive a response.

The document continues to pick up steam on social media, after first surfacing on the account of right-wing influencer and January 6 participant Philip Anderson last week, two days after the debate.

Despite being unverified, it has spawned a torrent of discourse – with big names like Bill Ackman and Marjorie Taylor Greene seemingly buying in.

‘This looks credible,’ wrote Ackman, the 58-year-old billionaire hedge fund manager on Sunday, re-sharing a post showing the six pages in question.

Greene, the MAGA Republican from Georgia, took it even further, re-sharing a since-disproved blog post that claimed the whistleblower died on Sunday.

‘The ABC whistleblower who claimed Kamala Harris was given debate questions ahead of the debate has died in a car crash according to news reports,’ Greene wrote in a post on X that remains up.

Four hours later, she offered a correction.

‘This story appears to be false, and I’m glad to hear it,’ Greene wrote, before doubling down on the original claims.

‘We need a serious investigation into the whistleblower’s report that Kamala Harris was given debate questions ahead of time from ABC!’ she proclaimed.

Ackman, the founder and chief executive officer of Pershing Square Capital Management, added: ‘I find the allegations credible as written, particularly because the affidavit was reportedly made the day before the debate and mentions details, like Harris’ smaller podium, that only became public later.’

Proof that the affidavit was written the day indicated on the document remains unseen, and a seal from the notary public described in the document is absent.

The document includes several redactions obscuring the supposed staffer’s identity.

The document says that Harris would not be subject to the same fact-checking as Trump, nor would she be asked questions about the health of President Biden.

Also disallowed were inquiries about Harris’s stint as California Attorney General, and those involving her brother-in-law, Tony West, who is from San Francisco and served as Associate Attorney General of the US around that time.

He wed Harris’s sister, Maya, a decade before, and today is ‘a major force behind Ms. Harris’s campaign and its record-setting fund-raising,’ serving as a ‘critical point of contact for business leaders and major donors,’ according to The New York Times.

 An excerpt of the document claims West ‘faces allegations of embezzling millions of dollars in taxpayer funds’ and ‘may be involved’ in Harris’s administrations if she is elected.

Those claims are also unproven and have never been reported.
