1. Since Chris is asking "Why would anyone care?" maybe I should spell it out. David Pecker is on board of Postmedia, which owns most of the the newspapers in Canada. He also participated in the hush money deals made by Trump & Cohen.https://twitter.com/cselley/status/1032351696234708995 …

2. The specific allegation against Pecker are: he had National Enquirer buy story about Trump affair from Playboy model & then didn't publish it as a favor to Trump. Possibly he was payed back for this.

3. There a bunch of problems with Pecker's behavior. I'll leave it the legal system to decide if it was lawful. From a journalistic stand-point, it was unethical. It's not the job of journalists to keep stories away from public as favor for powerful friends.
