[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gottlieb is repudiating Freedman's witness tampering claims very strongly. From TMZ:

"This is categorically false. We unequivocally deny all of these so-called allegations, which are cowardly sourced to supposed anonymous sources, and completely untethered from reality. This is what we have come to expect from the Wayfarer parties’ lawyers, who appear to love nothing more than shooting first, without any evidence, and with no care for the people they are harming in the process. We will imminently file motions with the court to hold these attorneys accountable for their misconduct here."

I'm the one upthread who was being cautious because Gottlieb's not the kind of lawyer I'd expect to get caught up in something like this. He has zero motivation to risk his career for something so dumb.

I am inclined to believe him. I think this is a PR ploy/trick from Freedman. I've seen arguments on Reddit that this is Freedman trying to draw Taylor out and force her to comment publicly. If she comes out and backs up Lively and says "this is ridiculous," Freedman could use that public statement to get her drawn into the litigation ("see, she is one of Blake's dragons, look how she defends her").

I think this is bait, both for JB fans who love the red meat and for Swift who is trying very hard to stay as far from this tawdry mess as possible.[/quote]

Disagree.  Freedman is no angel and does play hardball but he wouldn’t outright lie. His letter specifically mentions working with Venable in good faith. Venable is Taylor’s legal team.

All we can do is wait and see what drops.[/quote]
