Just hours before allegations that Bill Clinton had threatened Vanity Fair to drop investigations into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking were revealed, the outlet published a piece downplaying the latest Epstein document release.

Part of the fresh document release revealed that Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre alleged during an email exchange with a journalist that Bill Clinton went into the Vanity Fair office and threatened reporters there not to write articles on Epstein.

In the email, which pertains to Vanity Fair wanting to also buy a now notorious picture of Giuffre being grasped by Prince Andrew, she alleges that Clinton “walked into VF (Vanity Fair) and threatened them not to write sex trafficking articles about his good friend JE (Jeffrey Epstein)”.

Vanity Fair’s longtime former editor, Graydon Carter has since stated that “This categorically did not happen.”

It is interesting however, that this Vanity Fair piece attempting to frame the entire thing around Trump supporters was published just hours before the allegations came to light:
