Producer On ‘The Apprentice’ Claims Donald Trump Used N-Word When Faced With Prospect Of A Black Winner In Show’s First Season
Bill Pruitt wrote that he signed a non disclosure agreement that only recently expired.
Bill Pruitt, who worked on the first seasons of the NBC reality show, writes in a story on Slate that Trump used the word while dismissing the idea that a Black contestant, Kwame Jackson, could be an early winner on the series. After shooting the scene where Rancic is favored and wrapping up production, Pruitt wrote, “There is no discussion about what Trump said in the boardroom, about how the damning evidence was caught on tape. By carefully misleading viewers about Trump—his wealth, his stature, his character, and his intent—the competition reality show set about an American fraud that would balloon beyond its creators’ wildest imaginations.”
