[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The retaliation claim is weak because Justin’s defense is that he was not acting in retaliation for sexual harassment, but because of Blake’s campaign against him.  It’s a question for the jury and that is bad for Blake.  Her lack of likability will hurt her just as much as the actual facts.[/quote]

This. And countering PR with PR is unlikely to be retaliation in any kind of EEO context. The PR was to support It Ends With Us as much as Baldoni. The troll who was all caps shrieking accusations at how horrible everyone here is - and yes I am getting to a germane point -  also claimed to be living on TikTok and “seeing” this campaign develop. She came to this late. That ignores essential realities about Lively’s press for years and years and years. I’m the woman who wanted to talk intersectional issues and who has known and seen for years that Lively attracts bad press not because of her reproductive system but because she is an unusually aggressive, unusually tone-deaf interviewee for someone in her position. Leighton Meester played the spicy character in Gossip Girl and has opposite press. The cast of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants largely does not have her press problems.

Her likability was the goddamned ground floor for her spurious claims. And large swaths of the population do not like her and are absolutely entitled to feel that way and to vote with their wallets against supporting her hair and drink brands.[/quote]
