AMI's Payment For Mcdougal's Life Rights Revealed In Court

U.S. Supreme Court building is seen as justices released their financial disclosure reports in Washington

In a recent court testimony, it was revealed that the payment made to Karen McDougal, a former Playboy model, was filed under the president's budget by Pecker, the CEO of AMI, the parent company of the National Enquirer. Pecker explained that this decision was a clerical one due to the limited budget allocated for smaller transactions in the editors' budget.

The payment for McDougal's life rights was made via wire transfer by AMI. The paperwork related to this transaction is now being presented as evidence in court.

This revelation sheds light on the financial processes within media companies and how payments are managed and documented. It also raises questions about the transparency and accountability of such transactions.

As the court case unfolds, more details are expected to emerge regarding the circumstances surrounding the payment to McDougal and the implications it may have on the individuals and organizations involved.
