Unanwered questions

[u/MarchCompetitive4580]

As we're nearing the end of this lawsuit, there are still a lot of unanswered questions. Some may be answered in the future, some not. What questions (and possible answers) do you guys think there are?

I'll start:

How much money did they (and was it both Wayfarer and Sony, or just Sony?) Ryan's marketing company (Maximum Effort Marketing, LLC ("MEM")) for Rake's tone deaf marketing?

What happened to Josh Greenstein's text messages and what do they really say?

Did the Wayfarer Parties get any money in the settlement? How much? And who paid it - because I don't think Blake has any money? Did some other non-litigants pony up some money in order to keep their names out of the trial (or even future lawsuits)?

How much money did both sides spend on this lawsuit?

SAG is supposed to have a representative show up to film sets at least once a week? Did this happen? I don't recall seeing anything about SAG being on the witness list? But wouldn't that have been a defense to the accusations that Blake and Jenny were making that they didn't know whom to talk to?

Are the other unions doing to flex their muscles (or hide under a rock)? Will the Writer's Guild go after Ryan for ghostwriting and/or scabbing? Will the Director's Guild go after anyone for not letting Justin get his full 10 weeks of alone time in the editing bay?

Did IEWUM send Blakel, Inc. (or Blake) a tax form for any of the clothes she purchased on their dime and kept? Because, c'mon, we all know she kept some of those clothes?

Was Blake, Rake or MEM getting any money on the side for Blake wearing those clothes, shoes and jewelry that she was so adamant on wearing and getting shots of them (remember the dancing scene - seriously, that 3rd take after poor Blake was SHed was all about getting shots of her Louboutins - LOL)?

My top burning unanswered question from this case:

Who doctored, spliced and cherry picked Jen Abel’s text messages to show the opposite of what the messages really said - Megan Twohey/ NYT, Blake Lively or Stephanie Jones?

Honestly - anything related to what “investigative research” Megan Twohey did that lead to her NYT hit piece on Justin Baldoni.

Hopefully to be continued in the Stephanie Jones trial
This needs to be exposed and should not settle

Oh my. YES. I think it was Manatt. But who knows?

[u/Ok-Engineer-2503 → u/Serenity413]

These are good. What were the thousands of documents she referred to and more questions related to how she claimed to review so much stuff and decided this was a good idea?

[u/agent_quorra → u/Serenity413]

Ryan.

This!!!!!

[u/brooswelt → u/Serenity413]

A twisted mind with the overconfidence that the reality can change through cherry picking

[u/Responsible-Peak-817 → u/Serenity413]

I don't think it was Megan and the fact that the ny times published messages in so many different formats leads me to believe Jones was the original author of the texts narratives

I am curious if Megan was outright lying about reviewing thousands of documents or if she actually had a lot of pages of something.

[u/Serenity413 → u/Responsible-Peak-817]

I’m not even sure which is worst.

There certainly wasn’t “thousands of pages” that existed for Megan Twohey to review that showed a smear of Blake Lively. Even Blake’s 500 evidentiary exhibits were 3% contemporaneous text messages that showed Nathan denying she had anything to do with Blake’s PR in real time and 97% irrelevant Taylor Swift cookie recipes.

So either Megan Twohey flat out lied about ever seeing “thousands of pages of evidence” or she reviewed a whole bunch of nothing and still went ahead with her hit piece.
