Did you read anything related to the murdering Murdochs of SC? Look at how they got judges, law enforcement, lawyers, you name it to look the other way as committed crime after crime. |
+1 Reminds me of Jill Duggar whose husband noticed that they were bound by a contract they never signed to have their baby on national television. |
This. There is NO reason to hire Marty Singer if you have nothing to hide. |
This. |
Really though if the family is worth $200 million why would they need small royalties from the movie? Makes no sense and I believe them. |
He became aware that all 4 members of the Touey family were getting royalties from the movie while he was getting nothing. When he questioned good ole dad he didn't get straight answers. He hired a lawyer to look in to this and that's when they discovered he was never adopted. The discovery took a lot of time. He has been working on this for some time. It's interesting that they claim he blackmailed them and said he go to the press with bad stories about them if they didn't give him a bunch of money. How manipulative. He probably told them pay me a portion of the proceeds you've made off of me or I will go public. That's hardly blackmail. What horribly manipulative dishonest people. Gross. |
It's not just about the royalties. They became celebrities and made lots of money on the speaker circuit, where Leigh Ann presented herself as his adoptive mother. They benefited enormously from the PR about their familial relationship, which we now know was false. Let it all come out in court, will enjoy seeing the receipts. |
I'm inclined to think this is the story. |
Yep, we see for all their love/family talk it was a ruse from the beginning. They never looked out for him but for themselves. It was all about them. |
Just wanting to throw out some thoughts:
If you are savvy business people like the Tuhey's are, you may talk to Oher about capitalizing on their story. And it's not JUST Oher's story. It's all of theirs. And they all should profit. It sucks if Oher didn't get anything from the conservatorship - he should and hopefully that'll come out in the courts. But if they all profited from it, I think that's fair. For Oher to now say that her work (marketing, traveling and doing the speaking circuit, writing her speeches, performing them, etc.) all that money should go to him is ridiculous. He should do the speaking circuit and make his own money using the story. If Oher never went and lived with them, do you think there would even be a book? movie? speaking opportunities? No. Those all happened because of the Tuheys. Yes, it was based on him. But based on the whole family too. I read that they each got $14,000 for the movie. That's it. But for all these other opportunities I think Oher is trying for a money grab without realizing that the family made it what it is today. Bottom line is there are a lot of us that have riveting stories that, with the right connections, startup money and/or business savvy could make some buck off of. Just having a story doesn't get you everything Oher is asking for. |
This is classic Singer spin! |
So how are you paid by the Singer Media Manipulation team? How much? They had no story without him and lied to him and all of us. How cheap not to share the royalties with him. Thanks for verifying that everything they did was about making another buck for them and getting lots of attention for themselves. What goooood people they are. |
Wow, what a horrible person! |
If he watched the movie, he would know that he wasn’t adopted. The Tuohys applied to become his legal guardians in the film and presumably also in the book. I’m sure the Tuohys told him he was a member of the family, but legally he never was and that’s all public information. |
Yes, I was fascinated by the VF article a PP posted. He's basically a fixer, and his thing is taking something that is semi-true and spinning it. Look at Daily Mail comments--naturally their conservative readers are buying this hook, line, and sinker. |
