Will Billy Bush's NBC Settlement Reach $10 Million Mark? (Update)
Bush had officially been placed on suspension from the network earlier this month following the release of 2005 audio featuring the then-“Access Hollywood” host making lewd comments with Donald Trump.
Days before the second presidential debate, The Washington Post published a videotape of Trump on a hot mic boasting about kissing, groping and having sex with women.
Bush is heard throughout the tape agreeing with Trump as he made disparaging remarks about a married woman, and even egged him on.
