In a recent legal proceeding, the prosecution and defense engaged in a discussion regarding the definition of legitimate press function, particularly in relation to the actions of AMI, the publisher of the National Enquirer. The debate centered around whether AMI's activities, such as publishing articles and engaging in tasks like solicitation letters and seeking new subscribers, fell within the scope of normal legitimate press function.
During the proceedings, Trump's attorney emphasized that AMI's actions with regards to Karen McDougal were in line with their agreement and constituted activities that are part of the normal press function. The defense sought to clarify this point to the court.
