A veteran NBC News producer who worked with Ronan Farrow on Farrow's explosive story on disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein has left the network and is speaking out, calling the network's decision not to make the story public "a massive breach of journalistic integrity."Rich McHugh, who left NBC News' investigative unit recently, said in a statement provided to CNN that the orders not to run the story came from "the highest levels of NBC. That was unethical.""At a critical juncture in our reporting on Harvey Weinstein, as we were about to interview a woman with a credible allegation of rape against him, I was told not to do the interview and ordered to stand down, thus effectively killing the story," McHugh said in the statement.An NBC News spokesperson said in a statement that "the assertion that NBC News tried to kill the Weinstein story while Ronan Farrow was at NBC News, or even more ludicrously, after he left NBC News, is an outright lie.""In August of 2017, after NBC News assigned Ronan Farrow to investigate Weinstein and supported his reporting efforts for eight months, Farrow believed his reporting was ready for air. NBC disagreed because, unfortunately, he did not yet have a single victim of -- or witness to -- misconduct by Weinstein who was willing to be identified," the statement said. "Dissatisfied with that decision, Farrow chose to leave for a print outlet that he said was willing to publish immediately. NBC News told him 'we will not stand in your way,' and allowed him to take his reporting to The New Yorker, where, two months later, he published a strong piece that cited the following victims by name: Asia Argento, Mira Sorvino, Rosanna Arquette, Lucia Evans, Emma de Caunes, Jessica Barth, and Sophie Dix. Not one of these seven women was included in the reporting Farrow presented while at NBC News."McHugh spoke on the record with The New York Times for a story published Thursday night, shortly after The Daily Beast published an article with other accusations regarding NBC's decision not to run Farrow's story."Three days before Ronan and I were going to head to L.A. to interview a woman with a credible rape allegation against Harvey Weinstein, I was ordered to stop, not to interview this woman," McHugh told the Times. "And to stand down on the story altogether."NBC News President Noah Oppenheim told the Times that McHugh "was never told to stop in the way he's implying." He told the Times that Farrow had asked to take the story elsewhere the day before the interview, so there was no reason for him to use a requested NBC crew.Oppenheim and NBC News Chairman Andy Lack were both involved in the decision not to run Farrow's story, sources told CNN in October 2017, and both have come under fire over it. The network and its executives have also been under scrutiny in the wake of sexual harassment allegations against former "Today" show co-host Matt Lauer. Lauer, who was fired, has denied allegations against him.Farrow ultimately took the story to The New Yorker, which published it in October 2017, just a few days after The New York Times published its own investigation into Weinstein. Weinstein was charged in May with first- and third-degree rape and committing a criminal sexual act in the first degree stemming from incidents with two separate women in 2013 and 2004. Weinstein has denied all accusations of non-consensual sex made against him.The two publications received the Pulitzer Prize for public service in recognition of the reporting.In a statement to CNN, McHugh said he is speaking out now because he disagrees with NBC's leadership.McHugh also questioned why the network let the story get away."Something else must have been going on," he said. "As a journalist for 16 years I do know that when you have an explosive story you never let it walk out the door."Farrow is writing a book, "Catch and Kill," about his reporting into Weinstein and other men. A source with knowledge of the book deal told CNN earlier this year that it will contain information about his interactions with NBC executives.Farrow did not respond to a request for comment. 4183

A new art installation in Washington, D.C. is aiming to put the COVID-19 pandemic in a new perspective.WTOP-TV in Washington reports that on Friday, artist Suzanne Brennan Firstenberg was joined by the friends and family of coronavirus victims to set up her newest installation, "In America: How Could This Happen…"The installation, located on the D.C. Armory field near RFK Stadium, features more than 200,000 white flags — each one representing an America who has been killed by COVID-19.Community members are invited to continue planting the flags through Friday, Nov. 6. By the project's conclusion, Firstenberg hopes to plant more than 240,000 flags. She also invites volunteers to write the names of loved ones who have been killed by the disease on the flags."This is public participatory art," Firstenberg told NPR. "I want the community to come plant flags right alongside me. I want them to realize the importance of individual lives."According to NPR, Firstenberg has been searching for a place to display her project since August. She initially planned to use small American flags, but she ran into roadblocks."I would have had to source them from China, and that didn't really make sense to me," Firstenberg told NPR.White flags are typically used to represent surrender — which would be poignant given White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows' weekend comments claiming the Trump administration isn't going to control the pandemic. But according to Firstenberg, the white flags are meant to represent innocence."I know how valuable each life is, because I've had the opportunity — the honor — to be with people at a very difficult time in their lives, as they're saying goodbye," Firstenberg told NPR.As of early Tuesday afternoon, Johns Hopkins reports that more than 225,000 Americans had died of COVID-19. 1829

A Virginia man says he was fired from his job at a shipyard for refusing to remove a hat supporting President Donald Trump. The Virginian-Pilot reports that Dave Sunderland was fired last week from Newport News Shipbuilding. The private firm builds the nation’s aircraft carriers and some of its submarines. Sunderland said the human resources department said he violated a policy that bars yard workers from “campaigning” while on the job. Sunderland wore the hat as he walked from his car to his work area inside the gates, and sometimes during a safety meeting at the beginning of his shift. A spokesperson for Newport News Shipbuilding says the company doesn't allow political campaign or partisan political activities on company property. 751

A month after the deadliest mass shooting in America brought bump stocks to national attention, the rifle modification is again for sale and there's no regulation on the horizon.Slide Fire, the company that owns the patent on the rifle modification, said it has resumed taking new orders for bump stocks for the first time after temporarily suspending new sales a month ago."We will resume limited sales on November 1st at 8:30 a.m. CST," said Slide Fire, in an email from its customer services department to prospective buyers. "However, we have not yet reached adequate inventory levels to offer sales of all products."For most of October, the company kept a message posted to its homepage saying that sales of bump stocks were suspended.That suspension happened shortly after gunman Stephen Paddock used rifles fitted with bump stocks to commit the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history on October 1 in Las Vegas. Using his 32nd floor suite at the Mandalay Bay hotel as a sniper's nest, he shot into an outdoor concert on the ground below, killing 58 people and wounding hundreds before taking his own life.Slide Fire did not return messages from CNNMoney asking about the change in their sales policy.Experts say demand for the product likely remained high during the period of suspended sales."I imagine they were able to fulfill the flurry of orders they received after the Las Vegas tragedy, but I would think demand is still far stronger than usual for them," said Rommel Dionisio, gun industry analyst for Aegis Capital Corp.Related: One month after mass shooting, still no restrictions on bump stocksBump stocks speed up the rate of fire for semi-automatic rifles to mimic fully automatic fire. The bump stocks harness the recoil of the gun to bump the shooter's finger against the trigger, causing it to shoot much faster than if the shooter was manually pulling his or her finger on the trigger.The Bureau of the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said it does not consider bump stocks to be firearms, but parts -- as explained in a 2010 letter that Slide Fire displays on its web site. Parts are not subject to federal gun control measures like background checks.The use of bump stocks in the mass shooting inflamed gun-control rhetoric, prompting even National Rifle Association, which generally opposes all forms of gun control, to suggest imposing "additional regulations." NRA executives also said the ATF should "immediately review whether these devices comply with federal law."A few days later, the NRA said it opposed bipartisan bills to ban bump stocks. NRA spokeswoman Jennifer Baker said the bills were "overreaching and would ban commonly owned firearms accessories."Related: Bump stocks sell briskly after mass shootingA month after the mass shooting, there's no regulations on bump stocks. On Tuesday, Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut who has been engaged in the gun debate on Capitol Hill for years, told CNN that he's heard nothing on whether the ATF is seriously looking at changing regulations surrounding bump stocks."I don't think the ATF is going to move unless the White House tells them to move and my impression is that they have been given no direction from the White House," Murphy said."It is unclear what the ATF can do," Murphy added.Kris Brown, co-president of the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, said she's "pretty shocked that these kinds of accessories that are so easily used to transform a semi-automatic into a machine gun are still on the market."She said, "It's incredibly disappointing that even that marginal change isn't pushed through Congress overnight."The Brady Center filed a class action suit against Slide Fire Solutions "on behalf of all concert goers who suffered emotional distress as a result of the shooting that killed 58 people and wounded hundreds."The specter of gun control prompted a boost in sales for bump stocks, with various gun stores around the country telling CNNMoney they were rapidly selling out. Most were unable to restock because they couldn't get new inventory.FosTech Outdoors, which was selling bump stocks under the brand name Bumpski, also suspended taking new orders shortly after the Vegas shooting. FosTech, which has not returned messages from CNNMoney, no longer offers the bump stocks for sale on its web site.CNN's Daniella Diaz, Lauren Fox and Deirdre Walsh contributed to this report.The-CNN-Wire 4433
