Lol if I'm a "paid influencer" where is my $$$$???

I think you're mad about the comments about Baldoni's lawyer on the prior page that are not flattering.

No one cares about your weird conspiracy theories.

It's not a conspiracy theory. Baldoni's lawyers are incompetent.

They aren’t the ones who filed a sham lawsuit. Let’s see how that plays out. And your prior post had nothing to do with competency and was yet another bizarre attempt to connect this case to Harvey Weinstein. Who has so little to do with their time that they are researching the work and family histories of random law firm associates?

Incorrect. By Baldoni's own admission, the video was shown the day AFTER the birth scene was filmed.

No one said it was porn. It was still inappropriate and harassing.

It's not sexual harassment nor general harassment when Lively reportedly requested to see it per Baldoni's testimony. You're grasping at straws.

That took like four minutes, doing research is part of my job and I'm very efficient at it.

What do you do that you have time to post on this thread all day???

A family cuddling their newborn, with the birthing mom (Heath’s wife) being covered by a blanket throughout most of video. Music of Maxwell (I think) playing in the background, somewhat spiritual, a song about a woman’s worth.

And this was claimed by Blake as being pornographic—Justin and Jamie attempting to show her porn?

Wow. More receipts by Baldoni. Another fabrication by Blake.

People are speculating that SNL weekend update continues to troll Blake. If anyone saw, they had Heidi Gardner come on and play a middle-aged Karen, who was terrified of going to New York City because of what she read on Facebook.

At one point, she basically had this schtick where everything she was seeing was P-RN! EVERYWHERE!

I saw this skit and Sunday night and it’s trolling insular tourists who don’t know anything about NYC themselves but believe crazy things that people post about NYC on Facebook. It’s quite a stretch to make this skit “be about” someone who actually lives in NYC. The lady would not let go of her purse, was afraid Jost was after her cash, and was concerned about crackheads stealing her EarPods. Don’t think they would have put in this stuff or bits like how Karen buys her clothes off QVC if intended as a Lively burn.

I don’t think the lady was supposed to represent Blake, just they were making fun of that element. A lot of people see Blake as a Karen, who, when a black man showed her something she immediately assumed it was of a sexual nature, cause you know, she got married on a plantation, and had a full lifestyle brand based on the antebellum South.

This can piss you off, it clearly does, but don’t shoot the messenger here. There’s a ton of posters online really annoyed with her about this accusation. And since SNL has made fun of her multiple times in subtle ways, including when she was actually in the audience during the 50th, it’s certainly not a stretch.

I just think that this and several of the other “SNL is roasting Lively so hard” comments that have been made here are wishful fabrications of Baldoni fans that are disconnected from reality. You can claim it’s a roast, and I can disagree.

DP. I do think SNL may be roasting her a bit. That’s what they do. But either way, who cares? We won’t ever know for sure mostly likely, and it really doesn’t matter. But yes, she’s coming off as a major Karen. If I were on her team, I’d read the room and try to fix that. It’s really time she extended an olive branch. I keep thinking more and more about the NYT angle and how played they were. I am not worried about the company itself, but that journalists career could be seriously affected.

Everyone keeps quibbling over the finer details, and while I believe Justin even if we dissect the arguments on a microscopic level, what's just as important is I believe Justin when it comes to the big picture.

Justin did not like her, and felt like he had to appease her every step of the way based on his exchanges with others. He just comes off as so resigned and as someone who wants to get the whole thing over with. He's berated by her husband before they even begin filming but then he can't control himself and wants to ogle her? It's just bizarre.

Ok, so Baldoni has not given testimony yet.

Baldoni's timeline (in his Exhibit A, which is irregular and should be struck but whatever) says that Baldoni believed Lively "presumably" would like to see the video. This presumption was clearly wrong given that when Heath tried to show it to her, she immediately stopped him and asked if his wife even knew he was sharing it with people.

And yes, showing someone unwanted videos could be part of a harassment campaign at work. Especially videos of a "deeply personal" nature (Heath's words, not mine).

Dp. See, I’ve seen a lot of wishful thinking on here about how terrible Bryan freedman is, how he’s a terrible lawyer and very upset about any motions he hasn’t outright won (as if he’s that petty and short sighted). I’m a lawyer, but not a litigator, and I think he’s done a great job.

Sexual harassment doesn't automatically mean that the perpetrator "wants to ogle" the victim or is trying to have sex with them. Sexual harassment can happen specifically *because* a boss or manager doesn't like someone working for them, and uses things of a sexual or gendered nature to make them feel uncomfortable. It's really about power.

Lively has never alleged that he hit on her. Just that his behavior was harassing. She also alleges that he repeatedly told her that he was speaking with her dead father.

He is creepy.

Agree, subpoena to Venable was a good move, especially since there appears to be no common interest or even confidentiality agreement or the like between Blake and Taylor. Blake presumably refused to provide these documents,

Your boss says “ Hey, underlying, I would like you and the team to see this great video of the new sales process that I would like you and the team to take notes on. This is what we’re looking for on the project.”

And you would say”my boss harassed me. He wanted me and the team to watch this video that I thought was absurd and totally inappropriate just because. I want to file a harassment complaint. How dare he!”

That’s akin to what you are saying.

Blake never, ever ever was a victim, except in her own twisted mind

Dp, but what is creepy to me is researching and posting about the personal lives of the Baldoni attorneys. It’s stalkerish. YMMV.

Where do you live? If you are in the DMV, do you want to meet up? I will show you I’m just a dmv lawyer mom. These accusations are so tiresome and paranoid.

Right, and so if sexual harassment is about power, then how did Justin have power over her if she got all demands met every step of the way and threatened to walk away at every turn? Blake had the power here, not Justin. I even think one could make the argument that Blake and Ryan harassed Justin with all those anal jokes, too bad Blake beat him to the punch.
