We're covering a bunch of stories so come hang out with us tonight

We've got plenty to talk about, so come hang out.
It seems Zack Peters (Melissa Nathan's favorite puppet), and probably others I am sure, have taken this #JusT&TMarried opportunity to unleash a new wave of hate.
Remember who the mastermind is.
We've got some great stories for tonight, so come hang out.
Harvey Weinstein rushed to hospital. NY businesses complaining about MSG shut down during busy World Cup Weekend. A couple climbed the Empire State Building and got arrested for it.
I finally got through Blake’s fee motion, and I feel like a lot of people are going to see “$8 million in attorneys’ fees” and immediately think, that’s ridiculous.
But after actually reading the filing… I kind of understand why they’re asking for that amount.
One thing this motion keeps coming back to is that this wasn’t just a normal lawsuit where everyone filed a couple motions and waited for trial.
According to Blake’s lawyers, the Wayfarer defendants turned this into an all-out war. They argue the $400 million lawsuit wasn’t really about winning, it was about retaliating against Blake after she reported alleged harassment, draining her financially, dominating the media narrative, and making the cost of speaking up as painful as possible.
The filing also reminds the court that discovery wasn’t exactly smooth. Blake’s team says they had to file more than 15 discovery motions, repeatedly ask the court to intervene over withheld documents, privilege disputes, and other discovery fights. If you’ve been following the docket, you know this case has generated hundreds of filings.
The biggest legal issue isn’t actually the dollar amount, it’s what Blake is entitled to recover.
Her lawyers argue that California’s new Section 47.1 doesn’t say she only gets reimbursed for defending one specific defamation claim. They say the statute covers successfully defending the litigation, and because everything in this case became intertwined; the motion to dismiss, Rule 11 sanctions, discovery battles, and the 47.1 motion itself, they shouldn’t have to separate every single billing entry.
The motion also pushes back on what they expect critics will say next: that her lawyers charged too much.
Their response is basically: Wayfarer knew exactly who Blake hired. They knew they were filing a $400 million lawsuit in federal court against someone represented by two major firms. You don’t get to litigate like that for over a year and then act shocked that experienced trial lawyers are expensive.
One thing I hadn’t really thought about until reading this filing is that a case doesn’t have to go to trial to become incredibly expensive. Discovery was already happening while the motions to dismiss were being fought. Depositions, document production, privilege disputes, motions to compel… all of that costs money whether the case ultimately survives or not.
Also worth pointing out because I’ve already seen people confuse this online:
This isn’t Blake asking for damages. She’s asking to recover the attorneys’ fees and litigation costs she says she incurred defending herself after Judge Liman ruled she qualified for protection under California Civil Code 47.1.
Come hang out or watch the replay!

The movies they are going to make about this president 50 years from now will be totally outrageous and unbelievable on the one hand, and totally true on the other. Just when we thought Four Seasons Landscaping couldn't be topped, Donald Trump threw himself an MMA 80th birthday bash (at great expense to the tax payer no doubt) that will forever be remembered as ridiculous and embarrassing.
We've got a ton of stories to talk about including a bizarre Hollywood murder and more.
Los Angeles D.A. is looking into s@xual battery charges against Diddy, and the allegations against him are utterly hideous.
We're also reading more from the Pope's message about A.I. and the human race.
We're talking Lively's day in court and Pope Leo's message to big tech.
Prominent Hollywood litigator Bryan Freedman, now a defendant in a defamation case, is alleged of being connected to anonymous online attacks.
We're talking Lively v Baldoni and Pope Leo's message to big tech. Come and hang out with us.
This man has lieabetes.
Lets not forget that he trolled Blake and Taylor at the height of the smear campaign with his TMZ IG post.
Lets not forget that he was Ye's manager during snakegate.
Lets not forget he constantly trolled TS while he was managing the beibs.
Lets not forget that the only way he'd give Taylor a chance to buy her own music back was with an NDA for her to never talk bad about him and to still have 30% ownership of her music.
NOBODY LIKES YOU DUDE! except for Bibi maybe, embarrassing
