A purported ABC staffer claims the network agreed to requests the Harris campaign made, including not mentioning Biden’s health. The network says no ethical lines were crossed.
ABC News has again insisted that no topics or questions were shared with either Vice President Kamala Harris or Donald Trump, and their respective campaigns, in advance of last week’s presidential debate.
The network’s statement came after it declined to directly address allegations—made in an allegedly sworn statement, purportedly by one of its staff—that it helped Harris in the debate.
The claims are made in a document which has itself become a viral sensation among MAGA influencers and has been amplified by leading Trump allies like Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The document was first published Sunday—by an X account with nearly 100,000 followers, and the name “Black Insurrectionist”—as a six-page “affidavit,” which claimed to have been written by an ABC technical worker the day before the debate.

A Sept. 15 Instagram post (direct link, archived link) shows a screenshot of a post on X, formerly Twitter, by Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
"The ABC whistleblower who claimed Kamala Harris was given debate questions ahead of the debate has died in a car crash according to news reports," reads Greene's post.
The Instagram post – which adds a caption saying, "You still believe in all of these coincidences?" – garnered more than 1,000 likes in a day. Other versions of the claim were shared on Facebook and Instagram. Websites such as the Hindustan Times and Times Now also published articles about the claim, leading people online to believe the story was legitimate.

Our rating: False
Every element of this claim is baseless. There's no evidence such a whistleblower exists, nor that one died in a car crash. Greene retracted her claim about the supposed crash. ABC News said no information was shared with either presidential candidate before the debate.
