During her recent testimony, Hope Hicks revealed that she first became aware of the 'Access Hollywood' tape on October 7, 2016. This revelation came after she received an email from a reporter at The Washington Post who was seeking her comment on the matter.
At the time of learning about the tape, Hicks was situated in her office on the 14th floor of Trump Tower. This testimony sheds light on the timeline of events surrounding the release of the controversial tape, which captured then-candidate Donald Trump making lewd comments.
