In October 2016, Stormy Daniels' former publicist, Gina Rodriguez, informed the then-National Enquirer editor about Daniels' willingness to confirm her story on the record. Rodriguez texted the editor, mentioning Daniels and Trump, along with some redacted information, being featured on a website called The Dirty. She also mentioned that Fox News had been reaching out to Daniels, who had not confirmed or spoken about the matter.
