Friday, CBS News correspondent Jamie Wax admitted the press failed in its coverage of disgraced lawyer Michael Avenatti, who represented adult film star, Stormy Daniels.
Avenatti, an outspoken critic of Donald Trump, was sentenced to two and a half years in prison for his attempt to extort more than $20 million from Nike.
After CBS News ran the report about Avenatti and noted he faces other potential charges, CBS “This Morning” host Tony Dokoupil said the attorney had “big financial problems” and “went about getting it the wrong way.”
“He had some very big financial problems,” Dokoupil said in response to the report. “He had a big win in a lawsuit that then was reversed, and so maybe he needed some money and went about it getting it the wrong way.”
Michael Avenatti “the wrong way” prior to his issues with the justice system.
“Maybe we went about covering him the wrong way,” Wax said during a Friday segment of
CBS This Morning during a discussion of Avenatti’s legal problems. Avenatti rose to prominence as an attorney for
Stormy Daniels and received wide coverage from the media for being critical of former President Donald Trump. He fell from grace in 2019 after Nike accused him of extortion, and was sentenced to 30 months in prison in connection with that charge this week.
