NO PROOF THAT ANY DAILIES WERE DELETED. Bryan Freedman went on frenzied press tour spinning another false narrative AFTER the settlement because he knew there would be zero consequences. Team Baldoni had the “DAILES” info for over a year and would not have used it at trial because it can easily be explained away.

Based on the publicly available testimony, there does not appear to be evidence that Blake Lively herself personally contacted Sony and said "delete the dailies" Even Ange Giamatti said, “nothing urgent”. It is highly unlikely that Blake would have directly contacted Ange at Sony, who likely did not know the name of the legal representative making the request, so categorized it as “Blake asked”.

Lively explains, her depo, that her lawyers negotiated with the relevant parties regarding what would happen to sensitive footage as part of her nudity rider.  She stated "My lawyers negotiated with both the Wayfarer parties ... and Sony as well ... on what would happen to the footage that was most sensitive in nature." This part was LEFT OUT by most pro Justin Baldoni content creators and even Bryan Freedman.

Another point that often gets overlooked is timing.

The discussions about the sensitive footage occurred in September 2024 and November 2024, while the lawsuit was not filed until December 31, 2024. (Blake's deposition took place in July 2025). These discussions predated any litigation. Also, in September 2024 the online smear campaign was in full swing and I’m sure Blake Lively had no idea what was going on and wanted to ensure the birthing video was not leaked.

That timing matters because people frequently characterize the issue as "destroying evidence." But if the requests were made months before a lawsuit existed, the context appears different. The stated concern was reportedly sensitive footage, including material related to the film's birthing scene, and discussions about how that footage would be stored, protected, or handled. This is common in the film industry.

This was about protecting her IMAGE not destroying “evidence”. There was no litigation at the time the request was made – July 2024, September 2024, and November 2024... and was in accordance with her nudity rider.

Justin Baldoni has been a problem across multiple productions. Coworkers have called him verbally abusive, intimidating, disingenuous…with more than one saying that working with him was the worst experience of their careers. Blake has had a good reputation in her 20 year history until IEWU. Juston’s billionaire partner, Steve Sarowitz said he would spend 100 million to protect his studio (lied and said he didn’t bit actually did) which apparently meant endless $ to destroy Blake Lively - without leaving fingerprints - BEFORE there was a lawsuit…because they were worried that their shit show IEWU set “might” become public.

They won the PR war. The total social take down of Blake lively that they ordered up, paid millions for, and executed using digital warfare, as promised, more than delivered. The fact that his smear team of Melissa Nathan, Bryan, Freedman, and Jed Wallace are now being implicated or sued in other smear campaigns will be the silver lining in exposing these high stakes Hollywood smear campaigns. It doesn’t matter who you are, nobody’s going to survive this level of attack. It is shocking and unprecedented.

Bryan Freedman's been served in the Alexa Nikolas defamation case against him. Justin Baldoni’s smear team trio of Bryan Freedman, Melissa Nathan, and Jed Wallace are now implicated or being sued in multiple legal actions.

Whatever happens, Blake Lively’s bravery paved the way for these vicious, smear campaigns to be exposed.

Bryan Freedman's very bad week continues, he's been served in the Nikolas defamation case against him. Justin Baldoni’s smear team trio of Bryan Freedman, Melissa Nathan, and Jed Wallace are now implicated or being sued in multiple legal actions.

Whatever happens, Blake Lively’s bravery paved the way for these vicious, smear campaigns to be exposed.

Blake Lively had 1 good day - since the Wayfarer led smear campaign, with the intent to cause severe reputational harm and ruin Lively's career. We saw the Agreement with Jed Wallace (August 2024) outlining a TOTAL SOCIAL TAKEDOWN of Lively across social media (Reddit, X, Instagram, Tik Tok...interacting with users in real time to keep the approved "narratives" on track) without leaving fingerprints.

She shined at the MET GALA and Team Baldoni had Bryan Freedman go on a press frenzy the next day with his "preferred" content creators (many who TAG admitted they were in contact with). All with carefully worded new talking point: "were given the opportunity" He would have said "Blake's team came to us" if in fact they had. "No money changed hands" because no money has changed hands...yet. He knows that whoever says it first is what people remember - even if it's a false narrative.

Their gleeful continuation to smear Lively is prolific, aggressive, and unprecedented. The only good that may come out of this is Blake exposing the Hollywood smear machine run by Baldoni's team: Bryan Freedman, Jed Wallace, and Melissa Nathan.

Wayfarer is flooding the zone calling Blake Lively a bully in attempt to further discredit her and taint the jury pool. I believe Paul Feig, Norman Buckley and Harrison Ford over Baldoni's lawyers and TT influencers looking for clicks. You got this Blake!

From ex.patriarch: Justin Baldoni continued a long habit of blaming his own problematic behavior on others when he was hospitalized for a spinal infection. He blamed Colleen Hoover, his defenders blamed Blake Lively.

However the real culprit was his own shameless grift, that used the attention from IEWU to promote beer, energy drinks, private jets and even a dangerous stem cell treatment that caused near fatal infections.

Through it all, Baldoni blamed everyone but himself for his predicament.

Justin Baldoni‘s alarming past behavior includes admitting he’s been verbally abusive to his wife, often speaks from ego, talks about his porn addiction that started at 11 years old which influenced him to not have boundaries with women.

Admitted that he has forced himself on women without their consent - yet Baldoni asked TAG PR to plant a story in mainstream media that he was sexually assaulted by his college girlfriend. It’s no wonder this faux feminist has been sued multiple times and it’s entangled in multiple lawsuits currently. His past behaviors have caught up with him.
