Apple CEO Timothy Cook.
Cook will appear on ABC News' "World News Tonight" in an interview with David Muir on Wednesday night, but two very interesting short teaser clips were posted on the ABC News website on Wednesday afternoon.
In one, Cook indicates that Apple does not have a strong line of contact with the US Department of Justice. For example, the first time Apple heard about the filing that kicked off the debate was from the press.
Less than 24 hours later, he had posted an open letter on Apple's website explaining the controversy after he huddled for hours with his legal team.
"This filing, we found out about the filing from the press. And I don't think that's the way the railroad should be run. And I don't think that something so important to this country should be handled in this way," Cook told Muir.
The two teaser clips are embedded below. Business Insider will be covering the full interview, set to air on Wednesday evening.
