Unaired footage and the Trump Tapes

Rushes tapes will be labelled, but only as basic as tape number, day of shoot, camera, location etc. Rushes will be logged for the edit, but that's only relevant shots, and not transcriptions. It's unlikely they'd specifically log footage of the sort released the other day, it would just be 'Billy and Donald walk off bus'

Well yes, the leaked tax returns the other day were illegal too


Also the amount of Trumps illegal activity dredged up during the campaign, and pending from before, he and his lawyers could be very busy after the election. Sueing a TV company would probably end up the same as everyone else he threatens to sue... an empty threat

I'm not saying it isn't well labelled, just that, short of being a transript, the labelling would probably not be sufficient to easily find the sort of comments that they were looking for when considering thousands upon thousands of material, that they've only recently started looking through.

I've not seen Theroux's Saville documentary yet but it's probably been months if not years in the making, with a dedicated research team. The Gordon Brown comment was different, it was discovered by someone at Sky News monitoring a feed of a live event.

According to this chap, who didn't work on the Apprentice bit has worked for the production company...

(this is all going a bit off topic, maybe it needs splitting into a new thread?)

Of course those tapes were leak and its already been highlighted who were behide it. It could get even worse since the other side has just as bad stuff waiting in the wings. Is how US tv has become low grade gutter crap?

The other side as in Trump? I don't think they have, at least all the rumours of an 'October Surprise' have come to nothing so far. I doubt there's anything of that sort of magnitude from Hillary's past waiting to be found, remember she's been in the world of politics for 30 years, running for president for 10. Trump has only really been in the game a year. She's had to be careful for a lot longer




Not sure that's really relevant, the tape concerned was unbroadcast material and was published by a newspaper, not a TV company

The recording is over 10 years old, and wasn't for broadcast, so I don't understand what your point is here.

Why was it kept? if it wasn't going to get broadcast at some point?

Yea you right all her stuff its out in the open and no one cares

Though there was a big release/leak of a load of her corporate speeches and other documents the other day, however they weren't really that exciting and the people involved chose the same day as the 'Trump tape' so it's been mostly ignored

Companies keep the rushes to their shows in case they need it in the future for whatever reason. Same reason they keep archives of finished programmes.

This is in the same content is it?
