Show Notes
Movie stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are in a fierce battle having exchanged multiple 9-figure lawsuits. The tipping point came with a New York Times piece in December attempting to portray Baldoni as harasser and abuser on the set of his film "It Ends With Us".
Now Baldoni's lawyer has filed a 224-page counter-suit against Lively, the NY Times, and others filled with copious evidence showing the original story to be just another in a long line of
"fake news" stories by the legacy media.
Ariadna Jacob had her career as a top talent manager ruined by a similar NY Times smear piece years ago, and has made it her business to analyze these topics. She has been covering the Lively/Baldoni/NY Times beef and joins me to breakdown the How, What, Why and everything in between.
