[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The statement from Lively’s lawyers.  What sexual harassment is she talking about?

"This is an age-old story: A woman speaks up with concrete evidence of sexual harassment and retaliation and the abuser attempts to turn the tables on the victim. This is what experts call DARVO. Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim Offender," the team said in a statement. "In short, while the victim focuses on the abuse, the abuser focuses on the victim. The strategy of attacking the woman is desperate, it does not refute the evidence in Ms. Lively's complaint, and it will fail."[/quote]

So desperate and sad. Blake and her team are like out of touch boomers. If you think DCUM is "harsh" you outta see TikTok. She and Ryan are being roasted in hyper viral posts...organically.[/quote]

+10000. This story would have played differently 5 years ago. But on the other side of MeToo, we're all a bit more skeptical of these claims and more open to believing that women *do* have agency and they *are* clever and they are just as likely as men to engage in vicious politics.

In this case, a billionaire couple is claiming to be victimized by a relatively obscure actor. The facts of the situation don't fit the case (and the fact that she demanded her own edit of the film clearly demonstrates that she had more power than most actors).  But they are trying to make this fit the MeToo mold thinking it will work, and not realizing that the zeitgeist has completely changed.

If BL and RR had any sense at all, they'd find a way to wrap this up before BL gets Amber Herded. Because if this continues, BL's career will be completely overshadowed by courtroom clips and salacious gossip. And her marriage will take a hit the more that comes out (if the texts JB's camp released are any indication).  They overplayed their hand and need to figure out a way to back out before this defines them. [/quote]
