One America News Network retracted an article Monday that said former President Donald Trump's onetime attorney Michael Cohen had an affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels.
The March 27 article from the conservative news outlet quoted a post on X from a user who falsely claimed to have obtained information in 2018 from Daniels' then-attorney, Michael Avenatti. Citing Avenatti, the post claimed that Cohen and Daniels had been having an affair since 2006 and that Cohen "cooked up" the hush money scheme to extort the Trump Organization ahead of the 2016 election.
"To be clear, no evidence suggests that Mr. Cohen and Ms. Daniels were having an affair and no evidence suggests that Mr. Cohen 'cooked up' the scheme to extort the Trump Organization before the 2016 election," OAN said in a statement Monday.
