David Pecker Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

David Pecker, the former publisher of the National Enquirer, has been at the center of major headlines this week as he continues his testimony in Donald Trump's hush money trial in New York. According to ABC News and CBS News, Pecker spent several days on the stand detailing his role in the so-called "catch and kill" scheme, where the tabloid paid for stories that could damage Trump's 2016 campaign and then suppressed them. Pecker confirmed that he agreed to be Trump's "eyes and ears" during the campaign, promising to run positive stories about Trump and negative ones about his opponents. He also testified that he personally handled the purchase of the Karen McDougal story, which he described as "National Enquirer gold," and that Trump later asked him at the White House how McDougal was doing, showing continued interest in the matter.

Pecker's testimony has been closely watched, with prosecutors highlighting his immunity deal and the financial pressures he faced as American Media Inc. negotiated a sale amid federal investigations. Defense attorneys have pushed back, suggesting Pecker's actions were motivated by business interests rather than loyalty to Trump. ABC News reports that Pecker was "swatted" on the day he testified, a disturbing incident that has raised concerns about witness safety.

In the past 24 hours, major headlines have focused on Pecker's detailed account of his relationship with Trump and Cohen, including his refusal to pay Stormy Daniels directly, which led Cohen to make the payment himself. Pecker has not made any public appearances outside the courtroom, but his testimony has sparked intense media coverage and social media discussion, with many analyzing the implications for Trump's legal future.

Pecker's business activities remain under scrutiny, as the fallout from the trial could impact his reputation and future in media. There are no confirmed new business ventures or social media posts from Pecker himself, but his name continues to trend in news and commentary.
