You are so right.
If that publisher hadn’t put her on blast, they wouldn’t be facing possible bankruptcy over this lawsuit. Boop!

Welp if you think this then you’re the busybody Betty who will soon find out to MYOB. Oh and she was on blast the moment she posted that picture. Keep up.

She wasn’t “on blast” from anyone who mattered. Keep up.

They mattered enough to get her publisher to drop her. I get that you don’t matter and you can’t affect change but those who don’t matter to you can.

What publisher? You mean the one that’s about to get sued into oblivion? That one?

You’re not very smart are you?

If you think the publisher is going to end up owing nothing or little I've got a bridge to sell you.

I think they are going to end up owing nothing, or little to nothing. I would be shocked it if came out otherwise. I suppose it's not impossible they will settle for some undisclosed amount - closer to $13 than $13 million, I'd guess - to make this person go away, though.

You just want the publisher to owe bc for whatever reason, you think this woman was wronged.

No. For a very specific reason. She was wronged for a very specific reason.
The publisher will likely settle.

And every business or media outlet will stay away from her. Even employers will question whether to hire her. She has been branded as "metro becky" and that's not good.

Nope, she will become a conservative star here in the US, and simply a wealthy person and famous star back home.

She is fighting for her principles and (IMO) she will win. The publisher was not very smart in defaming her via a press release.

I know you want this to be true so badly....
But the publisher will settle. She will walk with enough to put this all in the rear view.

I think you overestimate the strength of her case - and overestimate the depth of this outfit's pockets. They are an indie publisher in Los Angeles, not some huge concern. Plus they apparently weren't even her publisher - they'd agreed to distribute the book for her publisher, California Coldblood, which appears to be even smaller.

But I'm sure you're right that she'll support her family on the settlement for the foreseeable future. At least take them out for breakfast on whatever she gets.
