[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh, lively's leas attorney is on The Town, the Matt Bellamy podcast about Hollywood. I'm a long time listener of the town and actually a little surprised because I thought Bellamy was very over this case.

Anyway, listening now, just letting people know if they are interesting.[/quote]

Gottlieb made an interesting comment towards the end of this interview, when Bellamy asks him if he thinks the lawsuit might have disrupted the way PR works in Hollywood, with the sort of behind the scenes smearing, leaking, and gossip that we saw in this case. While answering, Gottlieb suggested that maybe more celebrities, and their PR teams, will consider that there are more direct and less deceptive ways to promote themselves or even to criticize a colleague or try to get the public on "their side." Like you can just issue a statement, write an op-ed, or do an interview, rather than hiring a crisis team to try and manipulate social media comments or spread rumors against a professional rival.

I thought it was interesting because it made me think what might have happened if instead whatever it is that Melissa Nathan and Jed Wallace did for Baldoni and Wayfarer, they had just had Baldoni do an interview where he shared his story or had him release a statement where he defended himself and made the accusations he wanted to make about Blake stealing the movie or holding them hostage. It's an interesting thought exercise. I actually think this might have worked a lot better?[/quote]
