The article described her as one of the “social guarantors” who gave Epstein a veneer of respectability. “It made me look like a society lady,” Siegal said. An accompanying photo showed Siegal in a fur shrug and gold kitten heels. The article ran on the paper’s front page on Sunday, July 14. “There was no question that there was going to be reporting about Peggy, and I wanted the first foundational story to be in a paper of record,” McKenna later told me. McKenna advised Siegal to speak to Kantor for the article. Soon after, Siegal briefly retained Libby Locke, a defamation attorney. The lawyer referred Siegal to Matt McKenna, a crisis P.R. (She’d only sought his legal guidance once before, when the TSA had revoked her Global Entry privileges for failing to declare clothes purchased in Europe.) “I felt very threatened as to why people were calling me when hundreds of people knew him,” Siegal said when we met in the fall.

Her exclusive screenings, and the buzz and bonhomie they inspire, are crucial for pushing members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to vote for films she promotes.
