Non-disclosure agreements have long been used by companies and private individuals to avoid litigation and keep embarrassing information confidential. So, why is the hush money supposedly paid by Donald Trump such a problem?

Hush money agreements, also known as non-disclosure agreements, have long been used by companies and private individuals to avoid litigation and keep embarrassing information confidential. Harvey Weinstein, the former producer convicted of rape, used such agreements for years to conceal his harassment and assault of women.
