Summary
In this January 9, 2015 email chain, New York Times financial reporter Landon Thomas Jr advises Jeffrey Epstein on how to publicly respond to allegations. Thomas suggests Epstein should appear on television to present evidence refuting claims, demonstrate personal reform over the past five years, and counter narratives being driven by British tabloids.
