This clip pulls back the curtain on the part of the Epstein story most people don’t like to confront — not just what happened, but why so many people stayed quiet.

Daniel explains how major outlets would quietly bury sensitive stories by laundering them through tabloid coverage, using the New York Post as a shield while protecting their own reputations. It wasn’t about credibility — it was about money, access, and liability.
The conversation also turns personal. Daniel recounts stories from people who worked directly inside Epstein’s world — including chefs who later admitted they assumed something dark was happening, chose to stay out of it, and only fully understood the scope after the fact. Many of them later expressed guilt.
Through reporting discussed on Tara Palmieri’s podcasts, more details surfaced about the extraordinary NDAs Epstein’s staff were forced to sign — documents so restrictive they effectively ensured silence long after his arrest.
This wasn’t ignorance.
It was incentives.
Inside this clip:
• How major media outlets bury stories
• Why tabloid coverage is sometimes intentional
• The business model behind the “Fourth Estate”
• Staff inside Epstein’s circle
• Guilt after the truth came out
• The extreme NDAs used to enforce silence
No conspiracies.
No hysteria.
Just how power protects itself.
