    The woman rejecting it would be a very bizarre move if she knew she had no evidence, though.

    Surely she, rightly or wrongly, thinks she has an ironclad case to turn down that amount of money?

    Of course, that’s assuming there was a shush money offer.

      Possibly, but it’s unlikely we will ever hear the facts of this case, I mean we still haven’t had confirmation that the misconduct was even sexual in nature, it was first reported as him bullying a reporter if I’m not mistaken and without the facts we can’t say what motivated her to reject the settlement offer.
