Part 3/7:
Despite the fallout from the settlement, Stephanopoulos has secured a new contract with ABC, raising questions about the nature of his compensation and the contractual terms. Critics suggest this move sends the wrong message about accountability, as it appears Stephanopoulos is being rewarded rather than punished for his actions. Some assume the new contract encompasses stricter clauses aimed at preventing future legal issues, perhaps even a so-called “STFU clause,” designed to keep him from making similar statements that could result in litigation.
