[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Freedman has been disciplined lately… didn’t judge Liman scold him for his past antics? I don’t think Friedman not making a big deal of this means it’s not a thing. The trial is in two weeks.[/quote]

Oh I thought that ruling was a big win for Freedman and that a court sanction without money damages wasn't actually "disciplining" Freedman. At least that's what I was told by Baldoni supporters at the time. You'd think Freedman would be emboldened after that.[/quote]

I don’t know. Perhaps I’m not following this case as closely as others. I just think it’s a stretch to say that because BF is not publicly celebrating it means it’s not a thing? The trial is in two weeks so that just seems a strange take.

[b]The fact that there’s a trial at all means Blake already lost.[/b] I can’t imagine any scenario that gets her more work. [/quote]

This is such an interesting take? Can you elaborate? It isn't intuitive to me based on what I know about lawsuits.[/quote]

Is it an interesting take? I don’t think celebrities who are trying to sell aspirational brands like hair products and star in movies want to have two years worth of headlines about a major court case, but I’m certainly not an expert.

People would have moved on from this in August 2024. Her reputation had taken a major hit, but it would’ve died down. Yet here we are two years later and it still constant headlines and we are two weeks away from the trial talking about how she wanted to destroy dailies, reading documents she wanted to be sealed, and reading reports about how poorly all her brands are doing and how companies are spooked. I don’t think these are conversations Blake wants about her but again, I’m not an expert.

Would love to hear your take on why this is maybe a good thing for Blake? I just don’t think they ever thought it would get this far and I certainly don’t think they wanted a trial.[/quote]

Normally when someone files a law suit and it survives pretrial challenges to go to trial, that is not considered "losing".[/quote]

Normally when someone accuses another person of sexual harassment and a federal judge throws out all those claims it is considered “losing.”[/quote]
