The TwitterFiles have revealed thousands of moderation requests from government officials, including Twitter ceding moderation authority to the US intelligence community. Despite newsworthy revelations, mainstream media has ignored them. However, when a witness told a story about Trump asking to remove a tweet by Chrissy Teigen, the press went wild. The real story is about a ballooning federal censorship bureaucracy aimed at outsiders defined as threats. The TwitterFiles will be used to tell this larger story starting in March.

TWITTER FILES #16 Comic Interlude: A Media Experiment
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
2. The #TwitterFiles have revealed a lot: thousands of moderation requests from every corner of government, Feds mistaking both conservatives and leftists for fictional Russians, even Twitter deciding on paper to cede moderation authority to the “U.S. intelligence community”:
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
3. These and at least a dozen other newsworthy revelations produced exactly zilch in mainstream news coverage in the last two months:
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
4. Then House hearings were held last week, at which one witness told a story about Donald Trump asking to remove a mean tweet by Chrissy Teigen. The press went bananas. Now THAT was big news!
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
5. Purely to show the bankruptcy of media in this area, let’s introduce a pair of loud new data points, and see if any press figures at all cover either of them.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
6. If a president freaking out about one tweeter is news, surely a U.S. Senator finking on three hundred-plus of his constituents also must be?
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
7. Here’s Maine Senator Angus King writing to Twitter to call a slew of accounts “suspicious” for reasons like: “Rand Paul visit excitement” “Bot (averages 20 tweets a day)” Being followed by rival Eric Brakey Or, my personal favorite: “Mentions immigration.”
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
8. King’s office declined comment. If Dick Nixon sniffed glue, this is what his enemies list might have looked like: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vS1PbfNEqDCKX7YFNEvXmm7Lil3Z5unKivX5SA5avFE9tF95kgkbDVJpeRhX4lCig/pubhtml

9. So as not to focus only on Dems or those who caucus with Democrats, here’s a contribution from Republican Mark Lenzi, a State Department official most famous for offering to donate his brain to science after a claimed brush with Havana syndrome.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
10. Lenzi wrote to Twitter bluntly asking to remove 14 accounts distinguished among other things by skepticism of Russiagate: “The below are some Russian controlled accounts that I think you will want to look into and delete.”
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
11.A government official, writing from a State department email, asks to “delete” 14 accounts that are engaged in legit speech and for which no evidence is shown they're Russian controlled or bots (in fact, we at Racket know some of these people). A clear First Amendment issue.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
12. I noted before there were many crazy requests in Twitter records from officials wanting foes taken off Twitter, with Californian Adam Schiff’s effort to ban a reporter and stop “any and all search results” about a staffer making Angus King’s spreadsheet gambit look tame.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
13. The fact that mainstream outlets ignored the Schiff story but howled about Teigen shows what they're about. Responses like this are designed to keep blue-leaning audiences especially focused on moronic partisan spats, obscuring bigger picture narratives.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
14. The real story emerging in the #TwitterFiles is about a ballooning federal censorship bureaucracy that's not aimed at either the left or the right per se, but at the whole population of outsiders, who are being systematically defined as threats.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
15. Beginning in March, we'll start using the Twitter Files to tell this larger story about how Americans turned their counterterrorism machinery against themselves, to disastrous effect, through little-known federal agencies like the Global Engagement Center (GEC).
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
16. Until then, if you found yourself on King's list, please DM or write in to http://Racket.News. I'm on vacation next week, but we'll mock up "Angus King Told Twitter I Was Suspicious, And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt" shirts when I get back.
@mtaibbi - Matt Taibbi
17. Thanks to #TwitterFiles contributors like @ShellenbergerMD and @LHFang, and thanks also to Racket researchers. Searches were performed by a third party and material may have been left out.

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have faced controversy over tweets with pedophilic undertones. Teigen made inappropriate comments about children, including her own daughter Luna. She also tweeted about pedophilia, dressed her daughter in a pedo-symbol chair, and made disturbing references to pedos and cannibalism. Teigen faced backlash, apologized for her trolling behavior, and was canceled by brands. There are also allegations linking her to pedogate, but no concrete evidence has been provided. Legend's involvement is less clear.

38. Poor Chrissy flounced off twitter in March 2021 blaming trolls as usual, but then for some reasons Teigen's immunity from the truth was withdrawn. Teigen was revealed as the troll by Courtney Studden... https://web.archive.org/web/20230417173250/https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-crucifixion-of-courtney-stodden #CourtneyStudden #TeigenTroll
The Crucifixion of Courtney Stodden
At 16, Stodden was mocked and slut-shamed for marrying 50-year-old Doug Hutchison. As Stodden says, it’s taken years to free themself from his—and the media’s—abuse.

@CathyCathyFox - cathyfoxblog
38. Teigen “wouldn’t just publicly tweet about wanting me to take ‘a dirt nap’ but would privately DM me and tell me to kill myself,” Stodden said. Teigen lay low for a while, but was cancelled by various brands. https://web.archive.org/web/20221205143415/https://www.thecut.com/2021/07/chrissy-teigen-posted-about-being-part-of-the-cancel-club.html
Chrissy Teigen Is Still Talking About Being ‘Canceled’

Hollywood’s Starting to Crack Wide Open…
Hollywood is near the heart of the beast as far as child abuse is concerned. Hollywood is also a huge propaganda factory for the powers that be - an information laundry for the criminal cabal and its many crimes from human trafficking, drug trafficking to pedophilia. Several brave people are coming forward to expose what…

Video Transcript AI Summary
This video discusses the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which claims that a pizza restaurant in Washington, D.C. is involved in a pedophile ring. The video mentions an FBI document that identifies symbols used by pedophiles, including one resembling the logo of a neighboring pizza place called Besta Pizza. It also mentions that the owner of Comet Ping Pong, the pizza restaurant in question, is associated with performance artists who have controversial content related to pedophilia. The video suggests that the owner's Instagram profile contains disturbing images, but they cannot be shown. Additionally, it mentions John Podesta's leaked emails and his connection to Dennis Hastert, a convicted child molester. The video ends abruptly without further explanation.

Speaker 0: 7 unclassified FBI document. That document, according to the FBI, contains commonly used symbols by pedophiles to express their preference in children. I want you to see these images here. These are the images. Notice this one on the end, the triangle.
That image signifies something called Boy Love. The pizza place next door to Comet Ping Pong Pizza, Besta Pizza, well, this was their logo until only a few weeks ago. Clearly, you can see that the Besta logo actually contains the same image I'm gonna show you again as that boy lover image. Interestingly, after Pizzagate investigators pointed this out, Besta Pizza changed their logo And there it is now. They removed the triangle.
Also, Comet Ping Pong, owned by Alphantis, is the place where a number of performance artists perform regularly. 2 of the groups that perform there, who you can see advertised, by the way, on this Comet Ping Pong poster, include a group called Heavy Breathing and another group called Sex Stains. Well, if you check out the YouTube videos by these bands, Heavy Breathing has songs that do joke about pedophilia. And the band Sex Stains has a video that includes, and you see it right there, that same boy lover symbol. It's nearly identical to the one that the FBI does say is a pedophile code symbol for boy love.
As I said, there are some strange things there. As for the owner of the pizza place, James Alfantis, Well, he was one time in a relationship with David Brock who ran Media Matters for America. Well, since Pizzagate began to blow up online, he has made his Instagram profile, Jimmy Comet, private. But an archive search of Instagram reveals a number of strange photographs and words with strange and disturbing images associated with them. Look, to the point where we can't show you those pictures.
We're not even going to describe them to you because some viewers would find it too disturbing to share on TV. Now let's talk about the Podesta brothers because remember, it was John Podesta's email that was hacked. In those leaked Podesta emails, John Podesta talks about his close relationship with Dennis Hastert, the former speaker of the house who was recently sentenced to 15 months in prison for abusing boys years ago. He was referred to by the judge as a serial child molester. According to the Washington Post, visitors to Tony Podesta's home in

Video Transcript AI Summary
Pizzagate originated from the release of hacked emails from John Podesta, Clinton's campaign chairman. While no email discusses child sex trafficking, some online investigators claim that certain words and symbols in the emails are code language used by pedophiles. Comet Ping Pong Pizza, referenced in the emails, is owned by James Alfantis, a friend of Podesta. Besta Pizza, located nearby, had a logo resembling a symbol used by pedophiles, which they changed after the allegations. Performance artists regularly perform at Comet Ping Pong, including groups with questionable content. Alfantis has a strange Instagram profile, and Podesta's leaked emails mention his close relationship with a convicted child molester. Despite no public investigation, law enforcement has not looked into the allegations.

Speaker 0: Well, Pizzagate. It became a major story weeks ago when an armed man decided to investigate a DC area pizza place for himself. This man right here, he carried a rifle into a pizza parlor and then fired it at the floor. Media is telling you the entire story is a hoax or fake news. But But what does that even mean?
I spent the last month investigating. So what exactly is Pizzagate? And are there any actual facts to support this story? I've got to warn you. What we're gonna talk about tonight will be disturbing to some people, but this is a reality check you won't see anywhere else.
Pizzagate actually comes from the WikiLeaks release of hacked emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. In all, WikiLeaks dumped around 50,000 email messages, and it was from those emails that the claims that John Podesta may be part of a child's sex trafficking ring come from? To be clear, not 1 single email in the Podesta emails discusses child sex trafficking or pedophilia. That is a fact. But there are dozens of what seem to be strangely worded emails dealing with pizza and handkerchiefs.
Self described online investigators say that those words in the emails about pizza and the talk of handkerchiefs is code language used by pedophiles. So how did a DC pizza parlor get pulled into the story? Well, again, read any mainstream report and they indicate that Comet Ping Pong Pizza was somehow linked to this fake story and has no relation to anyone involved. But the truth is, that's not true either. What media is ignoring is that the Comet Ping Pong Pizza Place is actually referenced in the Podesta emails at least a dozen or so times, and that the owner of that place, James Alfantis, is a friend of John Podesta.
He was actually named, this is kinda strange, by GQ Magazine, as one of the top 50 most powerful people in Washington. Yes. We're talking about a pizza parlor owner. Now let's talk facts here. There is no solid evidence that Comet Ping Pong Pizza is being used to run a child sex trafficking ring.
But There are some very strange connections between Comet Ping Pong Pizza and a 2nd pizza place 2 doors over, Besta Pizza, and the accusations of pedophilia. Now this is where things start to get strange when you research the story. Now to begin, I need to show you a 2007 unclassified FBI document. That document, According to the FBI, contains commonly used symbols by pedophiles to express their preference in children. I want you to see these images here.
These are the images. Notice this 1 on the end, the triangle. That image signifies something called Boy Love. The pizza place next door to Comet Ping Pong Pizza, Besta Pizza, well, this was their logo until only a few weeks ago. Clearly, you can see that the Besta logo actually contains the same image, I'm gonna show you again, as that boy lover image.
Interestingly, After Pizzagate investigators pointed this out, Besta Pizza changed their logo, and there it is now. They removed the triangle. Also, Comet Ping Pong, owned by Alphantis, is the place where a number of performance artists perform regularly. 2 of the groups that perform Who you can see advertised, by the way, on this Comet Ping Pong poster, include a group called Heavy Breathing and another group called Sex Stains. Well, Well, if you check out the YouTube videos by these bands, Heavy Breathing has songs that do joke about pedophilia and the band Sex Stains has a video that includes, and you see it right there, That same boy lover symbol, it's nearly identical to the one that the FBI does say is a pedophile code symbol for boy love.
As I said, there are some strange things there. As for the owner of the pizza place, James Alfantis, well, he was one time in a relationship with David Brock who ran Media Matters for America. Well, since Pizzagate began to blow up online, he has made his Instagram profile, Jimmy Comet, private. But an archive search of Instagram reveals a number of strange photographs and words with strange and disturbing Images associated with them. Look, to the point where we can't show you those pictures.
We're not even gonna describe them to you because some viewers would find it too disturbing to share on TV. Now let's talk about the Podesta brothers because remember it was John Podesta's email that was hacked. In those leaked Podesta emails, John Podesta talks about his close relationship with Dennis Hastert, the former speaker of the house who was recently sentenced to 15 months in prison for abusing boys years ago. He was referred to by the judge as a serial child molester. According to the Washington Post, visitors to Tony Podesta's home in Falls Church Got an eyeful when they walked into a bedroom at the Podesta residence, hung with multiple color pictures by Katie Grannon, a photographer known for documentary style pictures of naked teenagers in their parents' suburban homes.
And to be clear, that just begins to scratch the surface of how strange some of this stuff is. And bear in mind, we can't get into a lot of the real details of it because of the limits on broadcasting this on television, but it is some very strange stuff. Now keep in mind, again, there is no proof here that there is a child sex ring being operated out of a DC Pizza Parlor. Investigators have already proven there's nothing to this story. Right?
Well, actually, no. And that's what you need to know. For all that is here, there has not been 1 single public investigation of any of this. Not from local police, not from the FBI, no one. And that has to be the big question.
Not for Podesta or for pizza parlor owners, but for law enforcement. Based on what may be or may not be here, the big question is why hasn't any investigation taken place? That's reality check. Let's talk about it on Twitter.

Stephen Colbert, a close friend of John Podesta and Hillary Clinton, has canceled episodes of The Late Show due to an alleged emergency appendectomy. However, this timing seems suspicious. Prior to his surgery, Slade Sohmer, an editor who debunked Pizzagate and was friends with Podesta, was arrested for child porn. Elon Musk also commented on Pizzagate, exposing it to his followers. The FBI confirmed that "pizza" is a pedophile code word. Colbert has been covering up Pizzagate for years, mocking and slandering those who speak out. WikiLeaks revealed that The Colbert Report colluded with the Clinton Global Initiative, presenting the Clinton Foundation positively. Colbert's hospitalization seems questionable.

STEPHEN COLBERT — CLOSE PAL OF JOHN PODESTA & HILLARY CLINTON BITCH — CANCELS LATE SHOW EPISODES! Stephen Colbert has canceled a week of his The Late Show allegedly due to an “emergency appendectomy”. The timing sure is coincidental! Let’s recap what happened right before this alleged surgery: - The Recount editor, Slade Sohmer, who “debunked Pizzagate” and was also pals with John Podesta was arrested for child porn. - Elon Musk commented on Pizzagate exposing his 165 million followers to the truth about Pizzagate here on X. - The FBI confirmed pizza is a pedophile code word. As I said in episode 8 of Vampire Hunter, Sohmer was another media bitch for John Podesta and Hillary Clinton who did their bidding by covering up Pizzagate. So is Stephen Colbert! Colbert has been covering up Pizzagate for years including mocking and slandering me on his show last December. (Scroll down for the clip!👇🏻) Not only is Colbert also friends with John Podesta, he took orders from the Clinton Foundation — their fake charity front they use as a cover for trafficking children. In 2016, WikiLeaks revealed that The Colbert Report was colluding with the Clinton Global Initiative, years before Hillary’s campaign was officially launched. In an e-mail from Craig Minassian of the Clinton Global Initiative to Podesta, Minassian brags that Colbert’s show aired two episodes that he “had them do.” The episodes focused on presenting the Clinton Foundation in a positive light. “I hope you got a chance to see the The Colbert Report’s two special episodes I had them do about CGI U that we taped in St. Louis this weekend,” Minassian wrote. “This is the link to last nights with a sketch about commitments and the monologue and WJC (Bill Clinton) interview aired Monday. Hope you enjoy and looking forward to your feedback. Next will be your Colbert appearance!” Colbert is sick in the head but sick in the hospital? Doubt it!

Speaker 0: Pizzagate, the bogus news story suggesting that Bill and Hillary Clinton were running a sex ring. A lot of uninformed gullible people. Why can you believe it? Stupid to believe that. The Twitter fight hit a supermodel Chrissy Teigen against Liz Crogan, a self described journalist.
I filed for COVID. Hi, guys. Welcome to another episode of Vampire Hunter. I'm doing an extra episode because so much news is breaking about Pizzagate, which is a good thing. Pizzagate is finally going mainstream.
I think we're past the drip drip phase and we're Finally in the flood phase. So there's so much information coming out. That's why I wanna do an extra show this week to keep you all updated, and I didn't want You guys to get behind. So I'm gonna cover 3 main bullet points. And The first one's gonna be Elon Musk commenting on Pizzagate.
The second will be the FBI confirms Pizzagate. And then 3rd topic is gonna be Elon Musk again and how he's putting a laser pointer on Tom Hanks and, put it lightly, his potential crimes against children. So we'll start with Elon Musk commenting on Pizzagate. If you guys remember in my last episode, which I believe is episode 8, I discussed how the editor of the recount, a man named Late summer was arrested on child porn charges. And he was keep in mind, he was Not just a reporter.
He was an editor. So when you're an editor, you have more authority over what your media outlook Puts out. Journalists don't. The the editor gets to usually decide what media stories are put up. So he was the editor, And his news outlet was debunking Pizzagate for years.
Not only that, they were featuring Some of the most prominent shills, fake news reporters in the movement that have been Hysterically claiming Pizzagate isn't real for many, many years now. Okay? So this media organization Debunked Pizzagate for years, and the guy that was in charge of it, running it as the editor, Slate Summer, turns out to be An actual pedophile. Okay. So I explained all of that last week.
And in addition to that, in my episode last week, I also talked about how Elon Musk is suing Media Matters. And so if you wanna learn how Media Matters is tied to Pizzagate, watch that episode. But it's important to know that Media Matters is tied to Pizzagate. It's tied to James Alfonsus. It's tied to Comet Ping Pong.
And there's probably no no news organization that has more aggressively not only covered up Pizzagate, but slandered And canceled people exposing Pizzagate than that. They have gotten me canceled from Many companies have been slandering me for, over 7 years now. They're horrible, and they have an invested if you wanna learn more about that, watch my last episode. Okay. So after that episode came out, Elon Musk commented on x On pizza day.
And I actually knew this was coming because Elon Musk has been Trolling the satanic pedophile called Ball. It's subtle, but he's been trolling them about pizza gay. I I knew it was only a matter of time before he took his laser pointer and shine a much brighter light on Pizzagate. If you don't research Pizzagate, you wouldn't have noticed him trolling, but he has. So I knew this was coming.
I knew it was only a matter of time before Elon Musk comment on PZA. And sure enough, a few days ago, it happened. So this is what he did. On X, He commented on a tweet featuring a screenshot of the story, John Podesta's friend who debunked Pizzagate arrested for child rape. And that is the story I just talked about with the editor's late summer from the recount.
So Elon Musk's Response was an exclamation point. But then somebody else tweeted To him, that media matters founder David Brock was dating Come Up Ping Pong owner, James Aliphantus. And here, actually, let me just read this to you. Oh, shoot. I just lost it.
Hold on. Okay. Found it. Alright. This is what the person wrote.
He tagged Elon Musk in his post. David Brock was the boyfriend of Jason Aliphontis, owner of Comet Ping Pong. Yes. The Pizzagate restaurant, Aliphantus, a pizza shop owner at the time, was on GQ's 50 Most Powerful People in DC list. And then Elon Musk responded.
Weird. And I know that that's not a huge comment on Petey Gate. But when you have a powerful man that has A 164,000,000 followers commenting on this. So all of his followers are seeing this And now learning about Pizzagate, I'm sure many for the first time, that's a huge deal. So you have Elon Musk putting a laser pointer on Pizzagate.
Do you think that Elon Musk would be putting a laser pointer on Pizzagate if it was just a conspiracy theory, if it was a hoax, if it was fake. No. He would not be putting a laser pointer on Pizzagate if Pizzagate wasn't real. So Since Elon Musk put a huge spotlight on Pizzagate, we finally have some really big accounts, some that have over a 1000000 followers talking about Pizzagate, acknowledging Pizzagate's real, stating that Pizzagate Not only is real, it always was real, and it's still ongoing. This is a huge turning point because In oh, 7 years, over 7 years, I don't think I've ever seen an account with Millions of followers talk about pizzagate.
And it's slowly starting to happen. The tide has finally turned. So you have Elon Musk putting a laser pointer on Pizzagate. Now more and more people are have the courage to talk about Pizzagate. And meanwhile, the mainstream media had a complete meltdown When he talked about Pizzagate, you know, they wrote dozens of hit pieces about him.
They said that he brought back the conspiracy theory, Pizzagate. They're mocking him. You know, the same old same old with them. But It's amazing because we finally have a lot of people talking about Pizzagate. More mainstream people are talking about Pizzagate.
We have Some more mainstream news organizations finally talk about Pizzagate. You know, I'm finally actually getting ridden about in an accurate way for the first time in 7 years. Some peep people are starting to reference my work. So, this is a huge shift. It's a huge win and it's very exciting.
But with all of that I will say that With him putting a laser pointer on Pizzagate, all this evidence that continues to pile up, which I'll get into later on the show, We still have the mainstream media lying about PTA covering up, and we still have Almost all of Con Inc. Completely silence, including the members of Con Inc. That have told us for years That Pizzagate isn't real. That Pizzagate's fake. Glenn Beck, Jack Posobiec, Megyn Kelly, the worst.
So, yeah, as all this information continues to come out, and it will, then there will be a point where People will not be able to deny it, even members in the mainstream media, which I've been saying since 2016. It'll be really interesting to see how they're gonna handle this, because I know they know Pizzagate's real. They're not Stupid. They knew they were covering up crimes against children. So how are they gonna play this?
Are they gonna apologize? Are they gonna repent? Are they going to just continue to ignore the elephant in the room for the rest of their lives? Are they going to play dumb and act Alefantis was just a pizza shop owner to just happen to Post pictures of children in sexually explicit ways with known pedophiles slang. I mean, I don't know how they're gonna spin this or get their way out of this, but I don't really care.
I'm just really happy it's going mainstream. And yes. So Elon Musk comments on Pizzagate. Shortly after that, we get confirmation from the FBI that pizza Indeed is a pedophile. Code word.
So the other night, it was late. I think it was 2 in the morning, and I was Half asleep. I was about to fall asleep, and Lair Logan DMs me this story. And it turns out that the FBI Has confirmed that pizza is a pedophile code word via a child porn case in College Station, Texas. So let me just read to you the details of this case.
Clint Harnan, who worked at Texas A&M, was arrested on pornography charges earlier this month, and the FBI reported that he used the pedophile forward pizza and chats to discuss child porn. Harden is now facing charges of receiving possessing child porn, and he was arrested by the FBI at his home and club station on November 11th. A news organization, god bless them, called The Current Revolt, actually obtained the FBI affidavit from a special agent aside to the case, and that details how Harden used the pedophile code word pizza in discussions about Child porn on online chats. The FBI agent wrote in the report that pizza is a known, A quote. I might quote this.
That pizza is a known slang code word to discuss child sexual abuse material, CSAM. Here's what the affidavit read. Agents reviewed Hardin's Tumblr page. The page was filled with posts and responses about Pornographic material, including CSAM. Again, that is child sexual abuse material.
1 post by Harden on Tumblr asked, anyone give out free pizza today? As stated before, I know from my training and experience that pizza and or cheese pizza is a known slang code word used by the individuals refer to CSAM. Okay? So here we go. More proof.
This is an official report from the FBI confirming that that pizza is a pedophile code word. And this is huge, but this is not the first time that law enforcement has confirmed That pizza is a pedophile code word, and it's not the first time that law enforcement has been able to best pedophiles because they were using Pizza as a pedophile code work. The DOJ actually has confirmed this. And I've talked about this before, but I know a lot of you guys are new to my channel and new to show, so I'm gonna go over this case. But there was a case in 2017.
And in this case, According to the DOJ records, so it's literally on the DOJ's website. You can go right now, and you can pull up this case. Those DOJ records confirm also that pizza is a pedophile code word. So let me just read you about this case. In October of 2017, federal prosecutors announced that they After he posted on Craigslist that he was looking for women and moms that were in Steward's cheese pizza.
The criminal complaint Post on the Department of Justice's website read this. In or about May 2017, enforcement officer working in an undercover capacity responded to a Craigslist personals advertisement placed by Salmic entitled Women slash moms that are into cheese pizza, which sought to connect with mothers who were into court, perverted topics. A review of the emails contained in the Gmail account owned by Salamak that he communicated with multiple individuals regarding interest And pedophilia and child pornography. K. But this is the most important part of the report.
During and after the search of the residence and after being advised of his Miranda rights, defendant Salamak admitted to law enforcement officers, among other things, In substance and in part, that one, he placed a Craigslist advertisement reference in paragraph 2 above, and that quote, Cheese pizza was a reference to child pornography. Okay? So That's coming from the Department of Justice. It's on their website. So we have confirmation from the Department of Justice And now confirmation from the FBI that pizza is a pedophile cold word.
And it's been a pedophile cold word for years. I've written about it. You can go read My subtext series where I go back and I talk about the history of pizza being used as a pedophile code where were years prior To 2016 when the Podesta emails came out where they were using pizza as a pedophile code work. And I just wanna remind people that when the Podesta emails came out And they were littered with pizza, and people were noticing that they weren't using in the the word pizza in a context that applied to the To the definition of it being a food item, what started happening is all of a sudden, all the evidence of Pizza being a pedophile cold word was scrubbed from the Internet. So I got screenshots of some of the evidence back in 2016 before they scrubbed it.
But they started actively scrubbing all the evidence that pizza's a pedophile cold word back in 2016. So You wouldn't believe it's a pedophile cold word. And here we are. But it is. Okay?
And I just wanna also mention Another thing about pizza being a pedophile, cold words. Pedophiles have different definitions for pizza In terms of it being a pedophile cold word, some of them use pizza or cheese pizza with with the meaning Or the attempt for it to mean child porn. I've seen other cases where pedophiles have used the word pizza or cheese pizza, And the and the definition meant, young children or a little girl. And let me give you another example of that. So earlier this year, there was another case in January where a federal jury Found a man named Joseph Hornoff guilty of distribution and possession of child porn.
The case file said Hornoff mentioned he had sexual contact with young girls, And he referred to them as pizza. He would fur he would refer to their age by describing how aged the, quote, unquote, cheese was. So I've seen pedophiles use pizza as a code word for little girls. And I've also seen pedophiles use pizza as a code word for child porn. Needless to say, it's a pedophile code word, and I'm just giving you a couple cases To show you that law enforcement has been able to bust pedophiles because they use pizza as a pedophile, cold word.
And I'm also showing you Proof that the DOJ, FBI, and law enforcement has indeed identified pizza as a pedophile code word. The media has lied to you about this, and the media ignores all these stories. It's always been a code word. The media's tried to cover it up. It's all coming out right now, and Nothing's gonna stop the truth from coming out.
Okay. Finally, I'm gonna talk about Elon Musk again And how he commented on a post that called Tom Hanks a cannibal, A child rapist and an adrenochrome junkie. So Elon Musk is really on a roll here. So first, he's commenting and Putting spotlight laser pointer on Pizzagate, and now we have them putting a laser pointer on Tom Hanks, who I've been talking about for many years now. So I was scrolling through Elon Musk's page, including his replies, because sometimes you find the best stuff in the replies.
And this is a perfect example of that. So I was scrolling through his page the other night, and I saw that he commented on this really long post. And I was like, what what is this? And and so I started reading it, and I my jaw just kept dropping. I could not believe What this post read and that Elon Musk actually commented on it.
So this x handle, it's at Scarepo at scearp0, they did a, quote, tweets on top of a tweet that had a video done by some millennial that had attended A Hanksgiving party. And apparently, all these nerds, you know, get together every year for Hanksgiving instead of Thanksgiving, and they all dress up as Tom Pinks. And The initial tweets just talked about how these millennials are just dead and zombified, and they have no sense of humor. And the x account that Musk commented on, also went into that at much greater length. If you wanna read the full Tweet, you can do that by going to my page because I did a whole write up on it, on x, Atlas Crokin.
But I'm just gonna kind of just give you the bullet points here. So what At Scarpole wrote is Besides the obvious insufferable premise of an entire performative event being built around a shitty pun Turning into the accidental idolization of a mutilation, blood sacrifice, cannibal Child rapist, reptilian, adrenochrome junkie, and, of course, he's referring to Tom Hanks here. The video is just one of many seemingly inconsequential irritations that the average millennial presents. So, I mean, this guy really didn't hold back. I mean, tell us how you really feel.
And then he also mentioned MK Ultra, which I thought was really interesting. And he wrote that closet or uncloset homosexuals may have been MKUltra's into a sodomite lifestyle And that these people and their swollen SSRI faces are vestiges of what was once a soul. So Elon's reply comment to this long post, again, calling Tom Hanks A mutilation, blood, sacrifice, cannibal, child rapist, reptilian, and junior chrome junkie was SSRIs don't just Zombify you, but also make your face swell? Question mark. Eeks.
So here we go again. Elon Musk, to his Hundreds of millions of followers is putting a laser pointer on this tweet that is calling Tom Hanks, Not just a pedophile and a child rapist. He's calling him a cannibal as well And a, a train of the kronge junkie. Okay? So you think that if That weren't true?
You Elon Musk would be drawing attention to this tweet? Probably not. But Let's talk about Tom Hanks and the evidence out there that that is true about him because I've been Following him and researching him for many years now. So I'm gonna go over some bullet points about Tom Hanks, who the real Tom Hanks is. I know he's not that Friendly guy from Forrest Gump with the guy next door that he presents himself to be every time he goes on a talk show, well, except for Jimmy Kimmel.
I'll get to that. But, you know, one of the most difficult things that I think people are gonna have to deal with is that A lot of these people that are involved in the rape, torture, and trafficking of children who are celebrities, Some of them come off as really nice people. The guy next door, the girl next door, You know, for someone like Chrissy Teigen, no. I don't think anyone is shocked to learn how truly evil she is, and And I don't think many at this point are surprised that she has all these tweets promoting pedophilia. She's a horrible, nasty woman, foul mouth.
I mean, she told a child to kill herself on Twitter years ago. She's a sicko. But Tom Hanks, for many years, managed to Keep this, oh, great American guy next door image. And I think it's gonna be the people like Tom Hanks that people are really gonna struggle with a lot. Well, okay.
So let's lay out the proof here that he indeed may be a child rapist and a Junior Chrome junkie and a Hannibal. So years ago, a woman named Sarah Ruth Ashcraft accused Hanks of raping her at the age of 13 years old on X. That was before it was asked, so it was Twitter. But needless to say, she accused him of raping her as a child. And I followed this back then.
She had tens of thousands of followers. This wasn't just some small account that only had a few 100 followers. She accused him of this years ago, and, you know, Tom Hanks said nothing. So then We had Isaac Hapy. I'm sure a lot of you guys know Isaac Hapy.
Isaac Hapy was a Hollywood insider who was pedophiles in Hollywood, and he flat out came out and said that Tom Hanks is a pedophile. And after Isaac Cappy exposed Tom Hanks as a pedophile, he allegedly committed suicide On Route 66, after Tom Hanks had posted about roadkill on Route 66. So a lot of people believe that Tom Hanks not only knew that he was gonna get murdered, but he was the one behind it. I knew Isaac Hapie. I talked to him a lot.
He was not suicidal. So I can promise you that he did not kill himself. And the fact that Tom Hanks seemed to have known right before he Got murdered that was gonna happen and where it was gonna happen is beyond creepy, and there's zero chance that's a coincidence, in my opinion. Tom Hanks did you a Provencher on Jimmy Kimmel years ago, where he was calling Babies sexy. He called them sexy babies, and he also sang talk dirty to me to children.
There were photos that popped up back in 2012 where Tom Hanks took pictures, allegedly in a bar with A kid who looked underage. He looked like a teenager who the media exclaimed was just, you know, passed out. He drank too much. And Tom sitting next to him, laughing and taking pictures with this poor guy that's passed out with his glasses all messed up at a table. But now knowing what we know, Was that kid really just passed out?
Did he drink too much? Or was there something more sinister going on? Tom Hanks is also close pals with Barack Obama, who we all know ordered $65,000 worth of pizza and hot dogs for a private party at the White House using clandestine channels on the Taxpayer's Dime. That was in the Podesta emails. Tom Hanks has a long history of posting bizarre social media posts highlighting missing children's items in random places around the world.
So for years, Tom Hanks would post pictures of Missing clothing items, some of them that look like they belong to children. Some of them that look like they belong to adults. And He never explained it. He never explained. Like, he had all these creepy, weird, cryptic posts of articles of clothing, like like little shoes from a Toddler, just in random places on the world, and he put the hashtag Hanks.
And I looked and looked trying to see, like, how is he explaining this? Why is no one questioning this? This is so weird. It's So creepy. And to this day, I've never been able to find an explanation as to what that was all about.
Why was he posting all these creepy posts? And people started catching on. People started talking about Tom Hanks. People started exposing him. You know, he'd been he was accused of child rape, and then all of a sudden, he just stopped posting.
He hasn't posted on x Since it's been x, actually. He hasn't been pro he hasn't posted on x in over 3 years now. Okay? So Then let's go back to 2020. If you remember 2020 at the Golden Globes, Ricky Gervais hosted.
And he called out all of Hollywood for being friends with Jeffrey Epstein, and he was making tons of jokes about them all being pedophiles. The cameras zoomed in at Tom Hanks at one point, and Ricky Gervais was calling out all these Hollywood pedophiles. And Tom Hanks looked like he was about to die. Like, the he the look on his face, the shock on his face was just amazing. He looked Terrified.
And then back in 2020, so after the Golden Globes, which happened 2020 in January, A few months later, the lockdown happened. And there were a lot of strange things going on with Tom Hanks back then. And I don't wanna get too deep down the rabbit hole with this one, but Tom Hanks allegedly got COVID while he was filming in Australia. There are a lot of, like, Strange pictures of him in Australia that implied that something else was going on with him. And after the lockdown happened, a lot of his Hollywood pals took to social media, Instagram.
They did videos. They posted photos Talking about Tom Hanks, and they expressed their concern about Tom Hanks. Is Tom Hanks gonna be okay? You know, what's his fate gonna be? It was really weird.
And you could tell when these celebrities were talking about Tom Hanks, they were, number 1, talking code, Which they do, these elite pedophiles. We know. They talk in codes. But they weren't talking about him having COVID. They were all panicking.
They were all freaking out. Then they all seemed to think that whatever happened to Tom may be happening to them. So What really went down with Tom Hanks? Why hasn't he posted it on Twitter in years? There's a lot of mystique around Tom Hanks.
I believe there's a lot that went on with Tom Hanks behind the scenes. And at some point, we will learn exactly what happened with Tom Hanks. Needless to say, it's not looking good for him, and the guy's a creep. And there's a lot of circumstantial evidence that strongly suggest that he indeed is a pedophile, and perhaps he was using his Twitter page to potentially traffic children. Because I so would love to know why he was posting all those cryptic posts with missing children's clothing items.
Makes zero sense that he did that. One day, I think we'll find out. Anyways, so that's all I got for tonight. Find me at lizcroekin.net. All my work's there.

Chris Hansen, known for exposing pedophiles, appeared on Logan Paul's podcast and denied the existence of Pizzagate. However, there is evidence supporting the use of pizza as a code word among pedophiles. Various sources, including DOJ records and media reports, confirm this. Additionally, members of the media who covered up Pizzagate have been arrested for pedophilia. Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation were also cited for "crimes against children" in an Inspector General's report. I challenge Hansen to debate me on this topic. It is disappointing to see him go from a pedophile exposer to a protector.
@LizCrokin - LIZ CROKIN
CHRIS HANSEN — WHO BECAME RICH & FAMOUS FOR EXPOSING PEDOPHILES — BLATANTLY LIES ABOUT PIZZAGATE ON LOGAN PAUL’S SHOW! Chris Hansen — who made his fame & fortune from his To Catch A Predator show exposing low-level pedophiles — went on Logan Paul’s @impaulsive podcast and blatantly lied about Pizzagate to his millions of viewers. On the @loganpaul show, @MikeMajlak accurately states that pizza has a role in pedophilia. Hansen responds by saying you’re talking about Pizzagate and Majlak responds “correct”. “It’s a totally made up thing,” Hansen said. “It is all BS…it’s this whole conspiratorial thing.” Majlak states that elites or politicians ordering pizza symbolizes ordering underage boys and girls and references the e-mail released by Wikileaks where it’s exposed that Barack Obama ordered $65K worth of pizza & hotdogs for a private White House party using clandestine channels. Hansen goes on to claim he can predict without fear of contradiction it’s all conspiratorial BS. Hansen claims there is no evidence proving Pizzagate is real — a bold-faced lie! — and states: “If anybody would know, somebody would come to me with evidence of it.” Why don’t you take a seat @chrishansen — because guess what? I’m coming at you with the hard evidence! 1. There’s documented proof that pizza is a pedophile code word going back to 2010. Proof here: https://open.substack.com/pub/lizcrokin/p/pizzagate-exposed-part-1?r=17d7ph&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post 2. DOJ records prove that cheese pizza was used as a pedophile code word. Proof here: https://www.justice.gov/usao-nj/press-release/file/1005496 3. There have been other cases where child sex predators have used pizza as a pedophile code word. Proof here: 4. The Wall Street Journal confirmed pizza is a pedophile code word last year. Proof here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/instagram-vast-pedophile-network-4ab7189 5. New Mexico Democrat Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed a lawsuit against Meta that contains evidence that child sex predators use pizza as pedophile code word on platforms like Instagram. Proof here: 6. The FBI confirmed in an affidavit that not only is pizza a pedophile code word, agents learn this in their training! Proof here: https://www.currentrevolt.com/p/fbi-confirms-pizzagate-in-college 7. I will also note that multiple members of the media who have lied about and covered up Pizzagate, have been arrested for pedophilia crimes. Here are three names: Peter Bright, James Gordon Meek and Slade Sohmer. Look them up! 8. Hillary Clinton & the Clinton Foundation were cited for “crimes against children” in the 2018 Inspector General’s report on page 294. Proof here: https://www.justice.gov/file/1071991/download There’s plenty of more “evidence” but I will let you chew on this for a bit. Now @chrishansen — if you’re so confident that Pizzagate is fake, debate me! Sadly, you just went from a pedophile exposer to a pedophile protector, in other words, from a hero to a zero in a flash! And now I’m wondering what’s in your closet? The Deep State must be getting real desperate to roll out this fraud who has made a name for himself exposing pedophiles and pretending to care about child victims — pathetic, evil and utterly despicable!

The speaker knew the statement wouldn't be well-received. They clarify they haven't eaten human meat, referencing the "Bodies" exhibit. They feel everything has been eaten in fine dining except human meat. The speaker then jokes about what body part they would offer to be eaten, such as their belly or arm, after passing away naturally. They suggest a thigh, saying it tastes like chicken.

Megyn Kelly tearing George Stephanopoulos to shreds. Today it’s costing ABC 15 Million and he has to apologize. https://t.co/UPCkogLC9I
Video Transcript AI Summary
George, your concern for victims of sexual assault is noted, but it's hard to overlook your history. You helped create a war room to discredit Bill Clinton's accusers, like Juanita Broderick and Paula Jones, at Hillary's direction. You admitted to enabling Clinton despite numerous allegations against him. When Paula Jones came forward, you and your team attacked her character instead of defending her. You compared her to Tonya Harding and dismissed her claims as a cash grab. Despite Clinton settling with Jones for nearly $1 million, you remained loyal to him. Now, you question Nancy Mace's support for a man found liable for sexual assault in a civil trial. How is this line of questioning appropriate for you?
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: What a kind, sensitive man who clearly cares deeply about women and their sexual assault allegations. Thanks for being an ally, George. I see how concerned you are that victims might not come forward if they are publicly attacked by their rapist or his defenders. To be sure, that is a very real concern. It happens all the time, which you know because you invented it.
Remember? When you created a whole command center designed to smear Bill Clinton's sexual assault and rape accusers so you could elevate him right into the presidency. The attorney representing many of Bill's accusers, and there were many, George, Juanita Broderick, Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones, Jennifer Flowers, to name just a few, said you and James Carville at Hillary Clinton's direction formed a so called war room whose purpose was, quote, to destroy any woman that would challenge Bill Clinton. You know the War Room? They made a whole movie about it.
George Stephanopoulos, director of communications. Bush was on the defensive. Another good night for Bill Clinton. Three debates, 3 wins. I guarantee you that if you do this, you'll never work in democratic politics.
Okay? Such a tough guy. This attorney points out that you don't like to talk about this particular behavior, George. Maybe that's why you skipped it in your discussion with Nancy Mace. But as you know, private detectives were hired, The women say they were threatened, and they were publicly shamed by you and your well funded team.
Did you worry then that this behavior might shame victims from coming forward? You admitted in your own memoir that Hillary Clinton told you about one accuser, quote, we have to destroy her story. Did you object? Did you say, that's shaming. No.
In fact, you later described yourself as Bill Clinton's, quote, enabler. But, sir, how could you have enabled and defended a man like this, accused by multiple women of sexual assault, rape, and harassment, which brings us to Paula Jones. You were Clinton's attack dog when Jones came forward claiming Bill Clinton had exposed himself to her, that when he was governor of Arkansas, he summoned her through state troopers to a Little Rock, Arkansas hotel room and took out his penis, a charge Clinton denies just as Trump denies E Jean Carroll's allegations against him. What do you think he wanted done with that thing, George? Just a little show and tell?
Jones was poor, a graduate of secretarial school, and worked for the state. She had no power, no connections, and he was the sitting governor. She didn't go to Columbia and Oxford and become a Rhodes Scholar like you, George. She was a nothing to you. Your buddy Carville immediately went after miss Jones infamously saying, if you drag a $100 bill through a trailer park, you never know what you'll find.
And you? Did you defend Paula Jones saying, we don't shame accusers. That's wrong. No. You compared Jones to Tonya Harding as, quoting here from The New York Times, just another woman seeking cash for telling a tabloid tale.
Fire up that war room, George, and destroy her. Bill Clinton would ultimately pay Paula Jones almost $1,000,000 to settle her civil suit against him. And you remained team Clinton all the way, to say nothing of Juanita Broderick's rape allegation or Kathleen Willey's allegations and more. But now you, quote, don't understand how Nancy Mace can support a man found liable for sexual assault of 1 woman 30 years ago in a civil trial in which the burden of proof is just 51% likely. My god.
How did anyone at ABC think this was a good line of inquiry for George Stephanopoulos of all people to

Speaker 1: several times out here. He's not bad, I have to say.
Speaker 0: Is that right? Yes. This is one of his favorite things to do. So this is a funny story about Brian. I met him because he took my deposition in a lawsuit, a dispute that I got into with my former agent.
Okay? So I got into a dispute with my former agent, the details of which I'm not at liberty to disclose, whatever. It ended fine after all was said and done. But Brian took my deposition, and he was such a bastard in this litigation. I was like, he's such an asshole.
I hate this guy. He was opposing counsel. Right?
Speaker 1: That's great.
Speaker 0: I had to sit for 8 hours across from him, and I was like, oh my god. I'm I'm in love. I love him. He was once he actually got across from me, his questions were great. His inquiries were totally reasonable.
We wound up really bonding in this deposition. And then when the shit hit the fan with NBC, he was brought into my life as an option. And when everybody else abandoned me, Brian well, I literally, everybody had abandoned me, and Brian was on the phone. And he said, just so you know, I don't give an f what anyone says about me. I've got you.
And off we went to war.
Speaker 1: You had an angel looking out for you. I'll say that, because there's nobody better than him. He is superb. Terrible pickleball player, but but superb.
Speaker 0: So you're living a life now. Are you at LA right now?
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say I'm in Los Angeles now.
Speaker 0: Okay. Because so you where were you raised? You're I mean, let's just start with a little bit about you so that the audience has because you're a Bush. Most most famously, you're a Bush, and it is that Bush family. So explain I'll assume.
A little bit more about your background.
Speaker 1: Texas. We're not all from Texas, Megan. I'm from Manhattan, Upper East Side, New York. Grew up, born in you know, born at New York Hospital, Upper East Side, 86, between York and East End, and, went to school in New York, then went off to boarding school, with Tucker Carlson, who was, several years ahead of me. And what an animal he was.
He's toned it down in a huge way. We all had a lot of fun. Then I went off to Colby College in Maine, Waterville, Maine, and then took a first job out of college in, in in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire on the radio.
Speaker 0: Were you you knew, like, while in school that you wanted to go into media?
Speaker 1: As my dad said, Billy was on the dean's other list. So the grades weren't exactly fantastic. So I, I knew that there was something I could do with the chutzpah and the and the and the energy I had. I just thought, boy, it's probably not a lawyer, doctor, or financier or one of these things. And I found the college radio station and had a ball on that and said, I think this is it.
And so it went that way. Yeah.
Speaker 0: You were smart. It was a smart move. Because you're smart you're a very smart guy, but you recognize that you had a ton of personality. And there was a there was a way to exploit that god given gift to do something really fun with your life.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I I appreciate my parents who grew up in a different era realizing that too and not shoving me into, you know, the finance world. My dad was a private asset manager and, you know, something safe. I said, you know, they they they were great and said, no. No.
No. This is you. Go. Go. Go.
Which was great.
Speaker 0: Alright. So explain where you fall in the Bush family legacy.
Speaker 1: So the 41st president, George h w Bush, is my uncle. My dad is his young was his younger brother by 7 years. And so w 43 would be my first cousin, of which there are, like, 16 of us. He's the oldest and I'm the youngest. So most people assume he's my uncle because he's 25 years older, but we are first cousins.
Speaker 0: Oh, wait. Did you send the Yeah.
Speaker 1: Look. I just saw a great picture in here. Look at this great picture. This is you'll love this. There I am in the middle of them in a sandwich.
Speaker 0: Oh, yeah. There they are. H w and w with Billy Bush in the middle.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 0: So did you spend a lot of time when you were growing up in your formative years at the White House?
Speaker 1: No. But I did get, one weekend. One time, mom and dad were invited to Camp David by, senior. And and so my brother and I went along. And afterwards, I had a lacrosse trip for my high school lacrosse team starting in Baltimore, like, 3 days later.
And I was like, mom, you think I could just stay down there? And and when h w heard that, he said, well, you stay with me. And then you you if you're down there, you gotta stay there. My brother was like, you're not staying there without me. So he, so he jumped on.
We jumped on Marine 1 right out of Camp David, landing on the White House lawn. I'm 18. My brother's 21. We go up to the top
Speaker 2: floor of the White House. H w put a case
Speaker 1: of beer in the fridge. There was a pool table up there on the 3rd floor. Beautiful views. We were drinking brews, playing pool, and having a blast.
Speaker 0: Wow. Little did you know how tame that was compared to how the future presidential son would be living while in the White House and around it? Hunter Biden, your little case of beer seems so innocent.
Speaker 1: And then I returned as a young father with my 3 little daughters when w was president. We spent the night and went to the Easter egg roll, And I gave White House bathrobes to all the Jonas Brothers who were performing. I hope they didn't forget that.
Speaker 2: So
Speaker 0: random. So it's fun. I mean,
Speaker 3: that must have been
Speaker 0: a fun upbringing to be connected to that kind of a power of power, but not Well responsible for it yourself? Because when you're the kid of the president, it's a very different story.
Speaker 1: Yeah. You gotta be really careful in in it's actually not the greatest. When you get into the Hollywood, you know, world, other than Jerry Weintraub, who was h w's great friend, you know, it's not maybe the greatest asset. I remember, like, Rosie O'Donnell, like, you know, going after me and all the certain, you know, liberal people. I had to be myself.
So on my first contract with NBC when I first arrived, I made it up. You could not mention that connection because I had to establish myself. So I made it so that they could never bring that up.
Speaker 0: Wow. And you went a different way from what Chelsea Clinton
Speaker 1: did when she Emphasis on the ability to shut the bush. Yeah. Right?
Speaker 0: Yeah. I mean, not to mention Jenna. You're too nice to rip on her, but obviously, she was interviewing her dad a lot a lot on NBC. There's there's a track record there.
Speaker 1: Well, I said to her she came to me early in in in when she was like, how do I get out of this thing? I said, well, listen. Here's what you do. I told her about my first contract. I said, you know, they're gonna want to keep milking that relationship, and you have a lot of talent.
You have a wonderful personality. You can do this. You just say no. And, just tell them no. I've done it enough.
That's it, And start doing other things. Bring other ideas to the table of things you can do, and she's done fabulously.
Speaker 0: So you, I heard you on Tucker, by the way, and it was great. I really enjoyed that discussion, because you're out promoting this new show that you're about to launch. And what what I glean from it, Billy, is that for the first time since the whole cancellation, and the viewers may remember that you got infamously canceled and just absolutely mistreated by NBC in the wake of that Access Hollywood tape with Trump breaking, the October surprise in 2016. And you were kind of an innocent victim in all of that. But since then, my impression has been you you haven't really wanted to go there.
You haven't really talked that much about it. You wrote, like, an op ed. You issued one of those, you know, apologies that we all have to issue when we get pulled into these things. But you haven't been out there talking a lot about it. So why is that?
Speaker 1: Well, I think it just everything is is timing, and it's amazing that it's 8 years. I never would because I remember after being fired in October of 2016, I mean, for 2 straight years, maybe two and a half, I was pulling my hair out. Why can't they I've been let me back in. You've thrown little Dino out of the cave. Let me back in.
I'm really I'm crying. I'm like a mess. I can't understand it. How could the network that raised me? How could they do this to me?
This is so wrong. And I just was it was unbearable, but then time goes on, and there's a I I I'm a consumer of stoic philosophy. There's a great, book that my friend Ryan Holiday, with whom I came became Yeah. Love it. During this process.
But Holiday wrote this book called The Obstacle is the Way. And this obstacle, this terrible thing in your life that you're trying to avoid and run away from, well, maybe it's the thing you need to go right through the middle. So I said, look, this hot mic thing no. My mic's the new show I'm launching is called Hot Mics with Billy Bush, and there's a a wink in there, but it's also look. The hot mic silenced me 8 years ago.
Now the hot mics are right in front of me and and giving me the opportunity to, present my true and authentic voice. So here we go.
Speaker 0: Well, it sounds like for the first time, you're really gonna talk about everything that you've been through. And I think it's very cathartic to do it. You know? I mean, I've been out there now talking to the extent I can because, you know, I'm not saying anything about my own particular situation, but many, many people who are forced out of NBC must sign nondisclosure agreements to get the money to which they are contractually entitled. It's absolutely outrageous, frankly.
But, you know, when you're talking about big dollars, you'll do it to protect your family. So many people are not at liberty to get fully into how NBC treated them like absolute shit. But you seem to be able to do it. So how is that?
Speaker 1: I'd rather be you, Meghan, than me because, yes, I didn't get the full I'm ground 0. Okay? People people studied me, learned from me, and then they, Brian Friedman and honed their skills. So, I think I would have rather been paid out and sit here silently, but instead, it is what it is. Who cares?
Get a wonderful opportunity in front of me. All is good. I've forgiven everybody but one person. And, you know, look, it's it it is me. It's part of my story.
And what's interesting is it's never been told. You know, when a proprietary piece of property leaks out of a major news organization and it's something so powerful to affect a presidential election, some of their own IP is weaponized to take out a presidential candidate, that requires or calls for at least an internal investigation. Forget the external. Should we take a look at how this might have happened? Well, it would have ended in 5 seconds.
So, of course, it was never lost.
Speaker 0: They knew. They knew. Because just as a refresher, this is the tape, with Trump and Billy on the Access Hollywood bus where Trump is saying you can grab him. He's talking about Nancy O'Dell, host a long time at NBC, saying how he wanted to wine and dine her. And he once took her out furniture shopping, and he really wanted to sleep with her.
But it didn't didn't work out that way. But there is also a reference on there too. When you're a celebrity, you can grab women by the p word. And when you're a celebrity, they let you do it, which Trump would later be asked about in his deposition in the case against E Jean Carroll in, really, what is I it might be my favorite clip of all time, which is really saying something. Any excuse to play this clip, I will take.
And here we are with the excuse right in front of us. So I will show again E Jean Carroll's lawyer, Roberta, asking Trump about that Access Hollywood tape.
Speaker 4: I just started kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it.
You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything. That's what you said. Correct?
Speaker 5: Well, historically, that's true with stars.
Speaker 4: It's true with stars that that they can grab women by the pussy?
Speaker 5: Well, that's what it's if you look over the last 1000000 years, I guess, that's been largely true, not always, but largely true, unfortunately or fortunately.
Speaker 1: Well, look
Speaker 0: Or fortunately. It depends.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I, when I heard here the the crazy thing is is I obviously heard it then, and the tape was 2,005, 11 years before the election. And he was the biggest star on NBC, and I was with him all the time. But I have no recollection of him saying that. It's always been him talking about Nancy O'Dell because she was my friend and my cohost, and that was like, I'm super uncomfortable.
And I'm like, oh, god. It's Nancy. Yikes. Yikes. Yikes.
And I I had to find my way out of that. I don't recall the grab thing at all, and the first time I ever like, it resonated with me. Oh, wow. He said that? Was sitting in the president and general manager, his office at the Today Show, about 4 weeks 4 days before I got fired, that Monday.
Noah Oppenheim? Yeah. I was in Noah Oppenheim's office. It might have been Tuesday, and I got I got canned, at the end of the week, but he played it for me. I said, listen.
I've never actually watched or heard this tape. I I just knew it was there because I reported it on the day it happened 11 years ago, but let me hear it. And when the most amazing thing is when that line came out, I was like, oh, and Noah Oppenheim laughed. The general manager of the press laughed. I would later be fired, I guess, for laughing or not intervening or I don't know what, but Mhmm.
He did because it's one of those things where you don't know what to do in a moment like that butt laugh.
Speaker 0: Well, the reason he laughed is because he's a sniveling little wiener who really has no fortitude or a strong character.
Speaker 3: I I I haven't
Speaker 1: forgiven him. Well, in my circumstance, I
Speaker 0: have Abigail fine and she's outside. Yeah. Go ahead.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why. This is why I forgive him. Because I was his only hire. He was new on the job as the GM and president, and they he brought me in to to sort of change the 9 o'clock hour. Later, you were brought in to change the 9 o'clock hour by
Speaker 0: him in
Speaker 1: LAC. Was me, and he sold it to LAC, Andy LAC, the chairman of NBC News at the time and Noah's boss, and he sold this idea to him. They hired me. Noah didn't want his only hire to get whacked, but he was new, and Andy was telling him, we whack them. We leak it.
We do it, and he's looking at me going he gave me, in retrospect, a couple of clues where he was like, hey. You know, these things I remember Noah saying, these things have a way of, like, maybe coming to light when they're that do you wanna do something maybe about it? And I was just naive. I'm like, no. There's nothing you can do about that.
It's a tape he didn't know he was that this no one will interview with me. No one will wanna sit down with Billy Bush because he takes the preamble before the interview and and and weaponizes it. You can't do that to Donald Trump, to anyone, or else I'm a ruined guy as a journalist. So, they told him to do it. He did it.
Most people would have done, sadly, to save their own hide what Noah did.
Speaker 0: Well, he has no such excuses in my case. And I look. I know you're supposed to forgive just for the sake of forgiving, but I have seen zero evidence that they seek forgiveness. And, you know, like, with Steve Bannon and Trump for that matter, over time, I was able to really contextualize their behavior and see it very differently. Those 2, I'm gonna especially lack.
Especially lack. But I just see as these snuggly little tiny little men.
Speaker 1: Yeah. No. I don't forgive Andy Lack. I said, here's another great Noah's Noah's Noah's big of me, but what's huge of me is the original boss that I worked for for 15 years as my executive producer at Access Hollywood, who ultimately sent the tape to NBC News in order to get permission to use it to get get it legally reviewed. And, of course, they just took it out of his hands at that point because they felt they had a weapon.
That producer, 15 years together, I didn't speak to for 2 years. He is now the producer of Hot Mites with Billy Bush launching on Monday.
Speaker 0: I love that. So honestly, like, I we kicked it off with Brian Friedman, you know, who is opposing counsel to me. Like, he took my deposition. We were in an adversarial position. I can definitely get past negative encounters with somebody.
I can get past adversarial experiences with somebody, but I just felt like what they did at NBC was so disgusting and so ruthless that I don't forgive them. And by the way, I listened to your interview with Tucker. F Craig Melvin and f Al Roker. You're wrong. Craig Melvin's not a good guys guys.
Screw him. You you may have
Speaker 1: liked him.
Speaker 0: I can't stand that guy.
Speaker 1: He begged me
Speaker 0: to come on my show. I put him on my show, begged me to help him on his loser MSNBC show, which I did. And then the first chance he had to stick the knife in and turn it, he ran to it. Like, yes. A chance to dump on the new white woman who's at 9 AM on the issue of race, because Craig Melvin is a black man, and piled on, suggesting I had behaved racistly.
Speaker 1: You know what? I'm gonna review my forgiveness, because I love you so much. Thank you. And if I'm you, absolutely, I understand. I get it.
I'm just in the same vein of Noah. In network news, there's a lot of sheep. Right? And and it's like, you know, he do it or fall out of my graces and don't rise up in the ranks. It's all stuff that goes into scripts for the morning show on Apple TV plus.
It's all true. It's so competitive and scary and backstabby and unsupportive. And, you know, when I got to the Today Show, all I wanted was Matt Lauer to put his arm around me and say, welcome, Ken. I've known you so long. I'm so glad you're here.
Let's go have lunch. Be the big guy. I've done that with every new reporter that came in to access Hollywood. I wasn't afraid that they were gonna replace me or anything like that. I'm not saying he was afraid, but he definitely soon as I got there, the energy changed, and he did not clear he did not want me there.
Speaker 0: Mhmm. And neither did Al Roker, who is a slithering snake of a man.
Speaker 1: Well, they told Al the 9 o'clock hour is gonna be led by Billy. He's gonna welcome everybody in. He's gonna do the thing. And truth be told, Noah told me, just make it to March, and then we're gonna find you your partner. You have to survive till March with Al.
And, maybe Al got wind of it, and and then I didn't survive another week.
Speaker 0: Whack. What a what a shock. Yeah. No. They they saw you exposed, and they plunged the knife in ruthlessly.
It was a pattern that they would repeat. These, you know, so called morning show hosts who are out there so cheery and so sweet to start your day with and behind the scenes. It was family. What they care about is their money and their fame. Go ahead, Billy.
Speaker 1: But it's a lot of money. It's a lot of money. Boy, they fork out a lot of money. Somehow, they still have a lot of money. I don't know how long.
I, I I made it 2 months, so I never got to sniff the money. But, you know, Lauer went you know, he's a $25,000,000 a year guy, you know, doing morning television. It's, I can
Speaker 0: see that. Out the money that I got at NBC pursuant to a contract that I negotiated. But let me tell you something. I was I was offered more at Fox. Like, I I wasn't so grateful to NBC.
NBC did shit for me. They didn't raise me. I raised myself over at Fox, and I could've gone to any single one of the networks. I didn't have to go to NBC. So I wasn't I wasn't beholden to them for some big deal.
I had big deals being offered to me by all the networks. It was just I made the colossal mistake of trusting the wrong group. And, you know, when my show, which was a misfit, admittedly, was struggling, they never got behind me. I mean, I will say, Kathie Lee, who was the best thing at NBC as far as I'm concerned, she pulled me aside. She goes, you know how long it took for our show to hit Kathie Lee and Hoda?
5 years. She goes, go back and look at the ratings in year 1 and 2 and 3. Absolutely dreadful. Terrible. And, she said it takes about 5 years for these shows to resonate.
And sure enough, you know, I was like, I was 1 year into it, and they I think they're well, we'll just let the audience speculate about what the real reasons were for them tanking me.
Speaker 1: The great the great Larry King said to me, leave it on. They'll find it. I'll never forget that. With a good show, leave it on, and they'll find it. But, you know, the reason why you can leave on Hoda and Kathie Lee is because it doesn't cost anything.
Everybody's there. The crew is hired, you know, they're they're they're slotted to be there for 5 hours, so they've got the hour. All the existing stuff is there. When you do something bold and, you know, your own studio, your own people, your own big budget, then they just get squeamish. But somehow, they have a lot of money to buy out of things.
I don't know.
Speaker 0: There's a
Speaker 3: ton of money.
Speaker 0: Not for long. Not for long. I mean, the you know, the Today Show has got has got half the ratings that it used to.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to you, and your YouTube is bigger than NBC News. I watched that. You, one woman alone, bigger than an entire news organization on YouTube. And for that, I applaud. That is amazing.
Speaker 0: Thank you. I'm not so Thank you very much. On the subject of Andy Lack, why don't you forgive him?
Speaker 1: Well, he never apologized to me. I called him once, and I was like, just apologize to me, you lethal little snake. Noah did. 6 months after I got fired, Noah Oppenheimer, we're talking on the phone, and he said, if you never forgive me, I understand. I'm so sorry.
It wasn't supposed to go down like that. Okay. I forgive you. We're imperfect people. We're, you know, good people are capable of doing bad things everywhere.
I'm capable of doing bad things. You too. We're all I mean, we're but if you own up, you apologize. You know, you're good by me because I'm the most imperfect. Andy Lack, so dismissive.
He talked to me for, like, 7 minutes seconds on the phone. Yeah. Sorry. I can't help you. I don't care.
And literally, you know, I I was speaking to the former president of MSNBC back in June and, told me during that time, he said, hey. What are you gonna do about Billy Bush? We gotta you gotta save Billy. He's a he's a good guy. He's not he's not he didn't do anything here.
This isn't him. And he said, fuck Billy Bush. And that was relayed to me by this, by the former president of MSNBC, like I didn't matter. And, you know, this is a man who saved Brian Williams, brought him back, gave him the 11th hour or whatever you call it, did his best to save Matt till he couldn't. But f Billy Bush.
I'm like, okay. Well, f you too, buddy.
Speaker 0: Yeah. Exactly right. So he wound up getting fired from NBC too. Is it true he's at PBS now?
Speaker 1: That's what I heard. I heard he's an executive producer of PBS, and, good for them. They've got one of the true derelicts of our of our time, a really bad bad
Speaker 0: Totally agree. I think, Brad I hate it.
Speaker 2: I don't
Speaker 1: like to say that. I'm a nice person. I'm a nice person. I like people. I accept faults and all that, but he's a he's a bad guy, Like, a really bad
Speaker 2: guy.
Speaker 0: Yeah. I agree. And it's like, where's the responsibility that these executives get for taking top talent like you and abs not just, like, firing them, but absolutely trying to ruin them, absolutely trying to devastate them, to the point where I heard you say to Tucker, you actually had suicidal ide ideations. Like, you it's serious. What they do is serious.
Speaker 1: One one moment. I mean, there was lots of emotional instability. I will say that it led me to this place called the Hoffman Process, which I did 9 days, you know, no electronics in a cabin with, you know, people and can it it's it's like a trauma place, but it it's the mental, emotional, psychological trauma of all of a sudden because it happens, thanks to the Internet, like this. I literally Friday morning, October 7, 2016, I did a double because Hoda Kotb loved working with me so much. She was like, I don't want any more guest hosts on Friday when Kathy's not here.
I only want Billy. Just let him do 2 hours in a row. And they put me in Man Spanx, and I'm dancing in Man Spanx, and we're having laughs, and it's wonderful, network, funny, whatever. And, I kinda thought the whole thing was behind us. I had dealt with Andy.
I told him this is illegal. It's the wrong thing to do. I felt like, okay. And, and off we go. It was like this, you know, this beautiful moment.
And then I'm on the plane flying home, and then, mister Bush, please put your phone away. I'm like, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: You know,
Speaker 1: we're all addicted. I'm like, I just want more text. And I had one more text, and then, mister Bush. Okay. And as I put it down, I see, boom, Washington Post, Access Hollywood bus tape.
And I went, oh my god. They did it. They did it. They didn't do it on their own air. They didn't do it in their own organization.
They did it through the Washington Post because the debate with Hillary is 2 days later, and by hook or by crook, this is gonna be the first topic on that stage, and we gotta get it to someone. Because now forget about owning the property. Forget about getting all the clicks and having the big story, and our organization winning the big story in the October surprise, it's more important that he loses the election. So let's get it to the Washington Post. Yeah?
Speaker 0: So can you because Doug and I have talked about this many times. But and now, obviously, I'm I'm I'm great. You know? I mean, I have nothing to complain about. But
Speaker 1: I'll see.
Speaker 0: I do remember very acutely many nights lying in bed right after this happened with NBC and feeling so incredibly sad that my whole career was gone. It it was evaporated in in a day by those fuckers who, you know, took this Internet, whatever, would have been a one day Twitter story and, you know, rammed it up over and over. And even after it died down, made a point of bringing it back up again. And I just remember being like, I can't believe this thing that was so important to me that I worked for so long to build is absolutely gone. And it
Speaker 1: took years. Expendable. Yeah. You're that expendable. You you realize, I will say, oh my god.
When I was just starting as a little bushy tailed, you know, you know, celebrity kiss ass on red carpets in, New York as the East Coast correspondent, I was Matt Lauer. I reached out to Matt to get some advice, you know, and, like, kiss his ass too. And, went down to his office, and he said to me, let me tell you something about this business. This is so prophetic. I can't believe I'm remembering.
He said, everybody is replaceable. You have to remember, everybody is replaceable. He said, someday, you could replace me easily. And I said, ah. And he's like, so just know that.
And I was like, okay. Think that way. In other words, prepare for these kinds of things. And I realized the man the reason the man hung on for 20 years, he knew it. He knew it.
Speaker 0: Well, but that but don't you think it's one thing to say that and and to know that? And it's quite another to say, okay. So they may replace me. I may not work out here. Whatever.
I may not be a good fit. But it's a different thing altogether to say they will
Speaker 1: The end of your life.
Speaker 0: Ruin me. They will do everything in their power, these people who I trusted, to absolutely ruin me so that I can't make another dollar in this industry.
Speaker 1: And then after the fact, planting stories everywhere in every paper that reinforce the idea that you're a bad guy, and so they look good for having gotten rid of a bad apple. That's the thing that I even heard afterwards. I'm like, what? They tracked I'm seeing the New York Post track down, like, a girl I allegedly bullied in 8th grade or said something into. I'm not kidding.
And they're like, Billy Bush is just bad to women. He's just a bad guy to women. And I'm like, What? Every woman at the Today show I had a terrific relationship with. There's 2 separate worlds, as you know, 7 to 9 and 9 to 11.
In the 9 to 11 world, everything was wonderful, peachy, lovely. 7 to 9, get him out of here. He's not one of us. So that's the, you know, that that was the that was the target for me. That was the
Speaker 0: Yeah. I mean, I I can relate fully to all of that too. I've never had more awkward moments where I felt less welcome than when they'd have me go over on the on the Today Show set and go outside. Without without exception, the only person who showed any kindness, as I I said, was Kathie Lee. And without exception, everybody else was just And Hoda.
Freeze ice on their ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, anyone who's a female at the I think it's really the men that were really brutal people. You may have a different experience as a female, but I found the the women to be wonderful.
Speaker 0: Well, I'll say this. There is one female associated with the show who pretended to be a friend of mine. And when the shit hit the fan, Doug actually reached out to this person's spouse because we knew them socially a bit and said, gee, it would be really nice if the woman could send out a tweet or something in support of Meg. And he said, oh, gee. You know, I don't think she's gonna do that.
She doesn't wanna go okay. Fine. That was just Doug being protect protective. And we later were told I can't say it's a matter of fact, but we were told by a very well connected PR person that this spouse to whom Doug had reached out was busy pushing the story everywhere.
Speaker 1: Oh, no.
Speaker 0: So to to Doug, oh, it's so sad. It's such bullshit. You know, she she's not gonna tweet, but this is total bullshit. And meanwhile, this person was doing his level best to push the story everywhere
Speaker 2: that I
Speaker 0: was allegedly this horrible racist person. I mean, this this industry is disgusting, and there are no more disgusting people than the hosts of those morning shows. They are exact and and the hypocrisy is what's so gross about it, Billy.
Speaker 1: I can't say you think Not everyone. O'Reilly Not everyone.
Speaker 0: You find out O'Reilly is irascible behind the scenes, you're like, yeah. It makes sense. Right? Okay. Yeah.
I
Speaker 3: can see that. Yeah.
Speaker 0: Right? But these people is like they they want you to think they're just so sweet and peachy keen.
Speaker 1: Well, it's a very competitive atmosphere. And I will I maintain that in my experience, there's some there are some very good people, in it, but everyone knows, you know, and it's mostly women. And, but they know that it's, you know, it's super it's a super competitive environment. You know, sit down with Ash Banfield sometime and and ask her about her experiences. But in the end, if you can survive it long enough and you know see, what things I'm not wired to play this game.
I'm not wired to, you know, have a team of people who are angling to help me get someone else out of the way and all. I don't think like that. I I think like, hey. I'm so happy to be here. We're all a team.
I just and I guess in order to dominate and survive, you gotta think like that, which I'm so glad I'm not there. I'm actually everything works out for the right reasons because I just I can't work like that. I feel sick.
Speaker 0: So who who stuck by you, Billy, like, during all this?
Speaker 1: All my friends. You find out who your friends are, and boy, did I have some wonderful friends. You know, publicly, you know, people, you know, on the show there, you you they do one man you know, didn't get a lot of public support, and that's just the fact. And I was so mad and hurt over that, because it's just a terrifying environment, especially then. Not I think now it's changing a bit, but I understand now that the public support wasn't so why?
But your friends oh my god. Your friends and so many people in the industry. Suzanne Somers wrote me a wonderful letter. Julie Bowen wrote me, you know, Kate Walsh. Julie Bowen, Cindy Crawford wrote me the loveliest letter.
Dennis Quaid. He was so mad with his pen. I mean, he was, like, smudged
Speaker 2: all over
Speaker 1: the paper. He was but all you know, in the business, we know who you are. You are you know, we love you. You're you're so fun. This, the, the.
Don't worry. You know? And, but in your personal life, oh my god. My friends were just amazing. Kept me kept me going.
And family.
Speaker 0: So did that retreat that you mentioned, the 9 day thing without the social media, without the phone, did that help? Did that was that a game changer for you?
Speaker 1: Yeah. It just got me going. You know, I I was, like, I was a danger to myself. I was just so, I was just, I will say this. It's I hope I'm not being irresponsible here, but the booze, you know, it served its purpose.
It I I'm gonna thank booze for a second. I would let you know. I'm glad we looked each other in the eye and said we're spending a little too much time together. But in the beginning, thank you, booze. Thank you, my phone.
Another terrible dopamine addiction. Thank you, phone, for being like, I need something to distract me. Go, what is Megyn Kelly doing on Twitter? You know, the and then the inside was hurting too much, so I went to this place. And, oddly enough, it was the day that I checked in was was the first day Trump walked into the Oval Office.
And I was like, oh, this is powerful irony. Here we go. So Right. It just was a massive, unbelievable shit show. But I'm gonna tell this to every one of your listeners and viewers.
We are all going through something terrible. Nobody goes unscathed. You don't escape it. It wasn't a child of mine with a terrible illness. It wasn't something else.
Mine has unique circumstances, but I'm certainly not extraordinary in the fact that life is a shit sandwich. Eat it or starve.
Speaker 0: That's what my stepfather used to say. Life is a shit sandwich, and every once in a while, they serve it up to you, and you have to take a big old piece and eat it. So it's just an unfortunate image, but not wrong.
Speaker 1: No. I agree. You know,
Speaker 0: I know that you feel as I do, which is in the moment, as awful as it is, like, would I would I change it? Would I go back and undo it if I could? I wouldn't. I would not.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. Yes. I mean, I appreciate the wake up call. I don't know if it's God, if it's the plan. I'm I believe it maybe is God saying, okay, Billy, you, probably you haven't experienced much, adversity in your life.
Right? I mean, I've become this little guy on TV interviewing celebrities and hop into place to place and contract to contract, and they move you to LA and they pay for everything. And now you're on the Today Show, blah blah blah blah. And it's like before it's too late, before you become an old man and you're don't have a chance to become better, baboom. I'm gonna hand you a massive explosion, and you're gonna somehow recover from it.
And you're gonna get going, and you're gonna and it's gonna be something that you will be grateful for because of who you've become. I believe in that. I do I believe that that has happened, but I do not appreciate, the messenger, Andy Lack. Do not appreciate him.
Speaker 0: Yeah. You can be grateful for the net net of the experience and not actually think the experience was enjoyable or or feel good about the people who put you through it. But I I definitely think that, you know, for me, I don't know. I think I rose to whatever, news fame, which isn't the real real same thing as real fame, quickly at Fox, and I think maybe I was drunk on my own wine. And Yeah.
I think I was getting too big for my own bridges. I think, you know, when I got to NBC, we did I look back now. We did all this Me Too coverage, not all of which was bad. Some of which were legit. I mean, Harvey Weinstein was a shit.
But there were you know, like, I just think there was overreach, and I think I was too full of hubris. And I think I needed to be checked. I I definitely think I'm much more humble and cognizant of my own failings and, you know, biases now than I was prior to all this. And so better as a person and better as a journalist post that nonsense.
Speaker 1: Well, you had to figure out what tools do you have to get to a better place to get out of this. You were handed a terrible situation. I mean, you know, Andy Lack made a move on you and tried to brand you a racist for asking the most simple question, and that is when did this become punishable by death? Because all the late night comics that we watch today, they used to perform in blackface on Regis. I mean, I remember one of them used to go over to Regis Philbin and do it on his show, the lovely Regis, the sweet Regis of all people.
Yep. You know, and and and Kimmel and, you know, the man show and all these things. And so the question you were asking was when was the date that this you know, you weren't complimenting Diana Ross, you were denigrating her. When did that happen? And that was enough for an evil man with a lot of power to try and kill you.
And, I remember saying, this is just an outrage. Brought up a little PTSD for me because I know all the players. Yep. But knowing you, you said, oh, man. This is terrible.
Terrible. Terrible. But
Speaker 0: So
Speaker 6: you survived.
Speaker 3: So now
Speaker 1: you now.
Speaker 0: Well, you made it back on TV. You did make it back into the cabal, right, which is what you said you wanted, on extra.
Speaker 1: Right? Covering. I'm covering. I gotta get back in there. Yeah.
Speaker 0: Well, so why isn't that that's that's that? That's what you do, and that's the end of that? Why do you feel the need to launch this podcast and or this YouTube show and, you know, talk about these issues now in a more full throated way?
Speaker 1: Extras is part of the American fabric. It's fun. It's it's it's a it's a great, you know, show that people still watch in droves in their living room, and it's wonderful. I just have a lot to say, and I have I have a lot of deeper things I want to talk about. I have interest I'm an international studies and government, you know, major from, in college and spent, you know, a year studying abroad.
And, you know, my interest every morning, I read Puck in the Wall Street Journal and the Free Press. Barry Weiss, you shout out to Barry, and especially Nellie Bowles, who is hysterical on Friday mornings. But I'm fascinated in our politics and in our world and our our culture, sports. The Giants are a disaster all the way up
Speaker 0: to the north. It's so sad.
Speaker 1: Everything is bubbling in me, and I want to be able to talk about it without, like, hitting my mark after 22 minutes. Like, that's weird.
Speaker 6: That
Speaker 0: It's so sad.
Speaker 1: For 22 minutes doing, hello, Julia. You look unbelievable and gorgeous and da da da da da da.
Speaker 0: Well, that's that's a that's a lane in which you are really exceptional. It is I mean, look. It was only a year at NBC, but I can definitely attest to the fact that those celebrity interviews are so much harder than people think. And your ability to make it look easy is in itself, like, truly extraordinary. That's a that's a genuine gift you have, but you have all these other gifts that you aren't really allowed to show on a show like that because it's so tight and so controlled and scripted.
So I think this is a great idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. It's definitely and I thought, boy, I should have done this earlier, but, no, I think everything sort of worked. I'm, like, 8 years later, we're launching hot mics after the hot mic thing that, oh my, are we crazy? Yeah.
We're a little crazy. We're a little crazy. I haven't thought the whole thing out yet, but here's the thing. I don't know how you fit one thing that Mark Zuckerberg said is, don't wait for your eureka moment. Like, this moment, like, I've got my brilliant idea.
Now I'm gonna go be this giant success. No. Just, like, if you have some weird ideas, like, just get started, get going, figure it out. You had no idea where this thing would lead to, how big it would become, how successful it'd become. You just knew that you needed to get going and being get back to being you, and you did, and the rest figured itself out.
That's what I'm attempting. So, you know, help me. Well, I
Speaker 0: think it'll be interesting to watch to see the difference between the you that launches next Monday and then the you that we see 4 years after. Because I would say in my own case, it took some getting used to to offer my opinion on so many things, to be so outspoken on so many things because we're not trained to be like that. We're not trained to do that in straight news journalism, which is what you're coming from. It's entertainment journalism, but it's journalism. And but then the more you do it, the more comfortable you feel.
So is there any risk to you, because you still have the foot in the other camp, of these left wing celebrities saying, I don't want anything to do with him. He's not woke. He's a Bush. He doesn't hate Trump. It's a no.
Speaker 1: Bush has never been more popular to these people now because the alternative to them is so True. It's actually come full circle. Like, we all miss George w. Where's he?
Speaker 0: That's amazing.
Speaker 1: Oh, got it. But, no. No. I think I've been at this long enough, and I think you're not gonna see you know, if we were double boxed, like you and I are on YouTube right now, the 2 people would know each other. You know what I mean?
There's there it's not like we're and people who know me and have been interviewed by me about their movies and about their lives and whatever, they'll see that guy. You know, you're not gonna see a totally unrecognizable person. Just like, oh, I didn't know he knew anything about the terrible things that are happening in the UK right now and, you know, who our players are in government and, you know, all the things that that I can bring.
Speaker 0: Well, look. I wanna say that we've gotten to know each other pretty well since our dual traumas. And I have found you to be absolutely delightful. Just such a good, nice guy. But, also, as I said, very insightful, very smart, very well read, very thought out on so many issues that just don't get to shine through given the nature of the way the 22 minutes are structured.
So I will be a listener. I will be a participant on episode 1, and I will be a listener regularly, Billy. And I'm thrilled you've chosen to do it.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Meaghan, I have to tell you, I'm very just you know this. I love you, and I love your husband, Doug. What great hair, very tall, very handsome man. And, I love you both.
And you I'm just so impressed by what you have done, and you're just resilient and tough. And I look up to you for it because you went and did it, and now I'm gonna do it just like you, big sis. Way to go.
Speaker 0: I'll be cheering you on and helping you in any way I can, Billy. All the best to you. Don't forget, it's called Hot Mics with Billy Bush, and it's going to be on tune in and YouTube starting Monday.

Stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have filed dueling lawsuits against one another now, well, sort of, following their box office hit movie this past summer. The pair starred in the best selling book turned film, It Ends With Us, which is, in essence, about domestic violence. It premiered in August.
Here's just a bit from the trailer.
Speaker 3: If one day you have a daughter What would you say to her? She came here and said the person she loved was hurting her.
Speaker 0: What would you
Speaker 1: say to her?
Speaker 0: None of this
Speaker 3: As hard as this choice is,
Speaker 0: we break the pattern or the pattern breaks us. Following the success of this film, legal filings now pulling back the curtain on what's reported to be, let's just say, a less than friendly atmosphere on set. Blake Lively has filed a lawsuit against her costar and the director and producer of the film, Justin Baldoni, and the production company, excuse me, behind the film, alleging sexual harassment. And then she claims an alleged smear campaign to destroy her reputation. She claims that alleged smear campaign was retaliation against her for raising complaints of sexual harassment in the first place.
Well, now Justin Baldoni has filed his own lawsuit, not against Blake Lively, not yet, but against The New York Times, which broke this story in late December for what he and his legal team says is The Times' totally irresponsible defamatory reporting on Lively's claims with the which The Times is accused of just taking and running with, notwithstanding substantial evidence, says Baldoni's lawyer, that they're full of hot air. Justin Baldoni's attorney is Brian Friedman. He's my own attorney too and my friend. And he joins me now to discuss the legal drama and to get to the bottom of what's going on with this real life Hollywood drama. Brian, great to have you.
How are you?
Speaker 6: I'm great. And it's great to see you, and I'm so happy for your all your success.
Speaker 0: Oh, you're the best. I told the audience the story in the first hour when I had Billy Bush on about how you and I met when you were taking my deposition and how a a beautiful friendship was born, which just never happens.
Speaker 6: Yeah. That was that that was a one of a kind, moment. Isn't it?
Speaker 0: Totally. And it's funny because Brian and I grew very close. We have a a beautiful friendship. But the only person, in my house that Brian Friedman loves more than me is my husband, Doug, because these 2 were, like, thick as thieves to that whole NBC nightmare.
Speaker 6: True. And and also the kind of husband Doug is, I strive to be. And he's such a great man, he's such a great writer, such a great person, and, and I'm so happy that he's yours because, you know, you deserve that kind of love, truly.
Speaker 0: You're the best. You are the best. Okay. So that's the sweet side of Brian. It's there.
You have to get to know him better. But he also knows how to fight, and he uses his powers for good against major media companies that crap all over their talent, think they can get away with it because they're major media companies, and the talent doesn't usually have the resources to fight back. So he's helped a bunch of people who have gotten completely screwed over. And Brian doesn't care about Party. He doesn't care about, you know, which company it is.
He fights for the ostracized loner who's getting dumped on by these companies, which leads us to the Blake Lively situation. Now she would say, in this situation, she's the victim. Baldoni's the bad guy. And just to lay it out for the audience in a little bit more detail, what she's claiming is that even though she was a much bigger star than Justin Baldoni, who I never heard of before this lawsuit, she's the much bigger star, and she's married to an even bigger star than she is, Ryan Reynolds, that she came in and onto this project and started to get harassed and mistreated by Justin and some others. And that when she then demanded that all of her concerns be rectified, that he did it, but that he was basically lying in wait for when the film would get released, in case she went public with what happened, that he and his PR team determined to bury her, to ruin her, and that this, wave of bad press we did see about Blake Lively when the film came out this past summer was not organic.
It was totally orchestrated by Justin and his team, and they've gotten their hands on a bunch of texts, especially amongst the PR team, but a couple involving Justin, that seem to suggest they were ready to, quote, destroy her and to ruin her reputation. But I'll say one thing. The evidence that then they actually did it is far less fruitful. Right? The the the text about, like, we could.
Here's what we might do if we need to. Those are everywhere. The text proving they did far less, ubiquitous in this complaint. And what you've said now in your lawsuit against The Times is don't even believe the text that you see in the Lively lawsuit because they're seriously misrepresented, omitting major facts that would give them an entirely different meaning, never mind greater context. And that's where I wanna bring you in.
So tell us what we don't know about this fight between these 2.
Speaker 6: Well, what you don't know is is a lot. Right? Because Blake Lively dominated the media. What they did was they worked with The New York Times. Republicists worked directly with The New York Times.
They shared, illegally obtained text messages. They shared those together. They concocted a complaint that they filed with the Civil Rights Division. They omitted texts that would have provided context, texts that were in the exact same string that would have provided context of what was really going on. And in fact, they actually removed emojis from texts that show that there was satire and there was joking around by the PR crisis agents.
I mean, the PR crisis agent, was brought in because actually Blake Lively's publicist, Leslie Sloan, was planting stories negative to Justin. And all Justin wanted to do, and it's all through the text messages, if the New York Times apparently reviewed a 1,000 or more pages of text messages, they would have seen it. Justin never wanted to hurt her, never wanted to be negative to her. He wanted to protect the film, he wanted to protect himself and he wanted to protect her from making negative allegations about him that were made up. And that they're proven in this case that you can see in late July before Melissa Nathan, the crisis PR person was hired, you can see Leslie Sloan planting stories.
We have evidence of it, the young kids would call it receipts, we call it evidence, and, and it's all over the place. There are text messages that refute every single thing in that camp in that complaint. And it's just disgusting when you go after someone, you try to destroy their life and and actually the evidence shows something different. Blake Lively was no victim here. She was she was in control.
She was in power, and she took over this film.
Speaker 0: So for those who are not in the Hollywood world, what is wrong with her taking over the film? She's a big star. Her name is what made it. It's what got eyeballs on it. How unusual is it, as you allege in your lawsuit, to have an actress come in and start editing scenes, taking over the final cut, excluding the director from it.
The director and 2 editors on the film, in exchanges that we have now that we'll be posting on megankelly.com, are talking openly about how it's about to air, it's about to hit screens, and they haven't seen it because she appears to have wrested control from them. So how unusual is that?
Speaker 6: I've never seen it before in my 30 plus year career in Hollywood. And, an executive producer is below a producer in the film world. An executive producer signed up to be an executive producer and that's it, and an actress, and that's what she was supposed to be. As the time progressed in this film, she decided that she wanted to be a producer. She applied to be a producer, she went and got the dailies, she started to make edits, she wanted to be part of the editing team, there were people hired, like human beings actually hired to do the editing job who had done work as editors, she wanted to be part of that team.
The next thing you know, she took over the editing. She started making threats that she wouldn't promote the movie, that she wanted to be in control of marketing of the movie, that she would do nothing in terms of promotion unless she was the actual editor, she came up with her own cut of the film, which is, you have a director who has a cut and she had a competing cut of the film. And for an executive producer to have a competing cut of a film is incredibly bizarre, but when she starts threatening people and saying, I'm not going to promote the film, I'm not going to do anything unless you use my cut. That's when it starts to be awfully, you know, awfully incendiary. And the concern really is that she used these allegations of sexual harassment and she used these allegations of bullying, to try and leverage her position so she could be the de facto director in the case.
And as you'll hear in the voice note, as you'll see in the evidence, she had Justin sitting in a basement in his own movie with his friends and family during the premiere of the movie, which should have been the biggest night of his career. He was sitting in the basement while she was not allowing him to be part of the premiere.
Speaker 0: Here is some of that which we have here exclusively Justin Baldoni speaking to, what he called his dream team, those who had been helping him edit the films and and get it to, finality, lamenting the fact that he was put in the basement on the premiere of his own movie, he says, per Blake's demands. Take a listen to that, voice text in part.
Speaker 7: Think about this. On what, you know, could have been one of the most beautiful nights of my life career wise, I literally was sent to the basement with my whole all my friends and family for over an hour. Because, I I wasn't allowed to be seen. She didn't want me anywhere near her or the rest of the cast. So they ushered me off the carpet, and they sent us down to the basement.
We were down there together. My friends and family, the people that love me the most, and we start laughing because of the ridiculousness of this whole thing. And I realized, like, on a night that was supposed to be so materialistically joyful, I was in the basement with the people that I love the most, and we were all joyful and laughing, because none of that shit matters. None of it. That's not why we're in the business.
That's not why the 3 of us are in this business is to attend a premiere like that and be celebrated. We're in this business because we are artists, and we believe in what we do, and because we wanna create art that touches people's hearts and souls and can move people, and that's what we did. That's what you both did. And I believe that will follow each of us and that truth will prevail and that light and love will win.
Speaker 0: So Brian and by the way, that'll be posted on megankelly.com. But to those who say the reason she wanted him nowhere near her at the premiere is because he'd been sexually harassing her and then retaliating against her with a smear campaign in the press after, you know, after the harassment. You know, they say so good. Who could blame her for wanting him in the basement? What say you?
Speaker 6: Let's break down what the sexual harassment is. I mean, we've we've just, you know, been through the Me Too movement. We've heard all sorts of serious allegations of sexual harassment that are really meaningful to victims and really important and whatnot. Blake Lively, if she was sexually harassed to such a degree in this film and in this situation, she wouldn't have returned to the film. And they had sat down and they had talked about what her complaints were.
The unfortunate thing is she actually didn't read the book and didn't understand what the book was about. And as a result of that, the complaints are things like she, he had gone into her trailer when she was breastfeeding, to which there are text messages that address that. There were complaints, that Jamie Heath, Justin's partner, had shown pornography. If you look at the actual complaint that they filed, it says that that's pornography. What Jamie Heath showed her was a still video of a home birth because they were discussing a scene about birthing.
And that's not pornography. And if you get down to the specific allegations, I mean, what this film was about was about domestic violence. This film was about sex scenes that involve rough, behavior and domestic violence and serious issues like that. And at every turn to the extent that Justin, anybody felt uncomfortable in any way on the film, Justin took responsibility for it. They, in fact, they met at Ryan Reynolds' house, in New York.
They went over a 17 point list of things. They had come to an agreement, although Justin and Jamie did not agree that these things that were spoken about were warranted at all. They said, well, of course, we won't come into your trailer if you don't want us to. Of course, we won't do these things. And they're really simple concepts and simple things and even in their own complaint, they admit that ever since they met in January, that everything ran smoothly for the rest of the set.
And then all of a sudden, when Blake Lively decides that she's not going to do any type of press with Justin. She's not gonna let him at the premier. She's not going to be seen in a photo with him in any kind of the press. She decides that that that you know, and and all of a sudden, the fans, you know, people aren't stupid out there. They're looking and seeing that, oh, hold it.
The entire cast has unfollowed Justin. And there's no explanation for it. There's not even an email. And hold it, they're not together in any of the marketing. Why is that?
Is there something going on with the 2 of them? And then you start to see the stories planted by Leslie Sloan. You start to see them on August 8th and it's very clear what's being planted. There are evidence for all these points. There are text messages for all these points.
And unlike any case that I've handled in my entire career, just the one case we're going to put every single text message, every single document, everything on a website for everyone in the public to read, come to their own conclusions, and they can determine whether or not there was sexual harassment here, there was a smear campaign, or there was retaliation because we have proof and receipts that absolutely and unequivocally show this is not true.
Speaker 0: Alright. Let's go through some of them because what she alleges in her complaint is that there was a twofold plan. This is Blake Lively's allegation. That aimed to both, a, conceal the pattern of harassment and other misconduct by mister Baldoni, his partner, mister Heath, and their company Wayfarer, and, b, retaliate against miss Lively by battering her image, harming her businesses, and causing her and her family severe emotional harm. To me, as an attorney, I want I separate those out because to conceal the alleged pattern of harassment to which he's referring and other misconduct by Baldoni, Heath, and Wayfair to me, Brian, you tell me, but I feel like that's that's fine.
Let's assume he did do the harassment. I know you deny all that. But even if he did do the harassment, what's best for the film is definitely not to have that hitting just as the film hits the big screen. I don't think there's a cause of action for concealing bad news about the star of the film. It's point b that could potentially spell legal trouble, which is that they then allegedly retaliated against Blake Lively by orchestrating a smear campaign against her.
And the reason they did it was because she raised sexual harassment complaints. Let's just focus on number 2 for for now. Is it a problem in your mind? Like, if if you've got somebody on the show, on the movie, who's alleged sexual harassment, and then when the movie hits, she, directly or through her PR person, leaks that, starts generating PR to make the movie look bad, to make the costar look bad, I was a poor victim. He was a cad.
And leaks all this. Is it necessarily retaliatory for the person being accused to say, a, no. I didn't. And, b, this person should not be trusted. This person is not a good person.
Right? I I I just don't understand legally the difference because you're not allowed to retaliate, you know, to punish somebody in essence for report for accusing in this way. But, also, if it's false, does a man have the right to come out and say, don't believe her. This is a bad person, either directly or through PR people.
Speaker 6: Well, remember that that that there was actually no allegation of sexual harassment until the lawsuit was filed. I mean, that's when the allegations of sexual harassment came up. They didn't come up before them.
Speaker 0: Well, that was in the 17 point memo that you referenced. She was raising some of these issues.
Speaker 6: Well, that's right. But I mean, in terms of the public, she raised them in the 17 point memo, they had agreed to 17 points, that they would agree that there were simple points that everybody would go back and she would return to work. There's a signed document saying they worked things out. In the actual lawsuit itself, it says everything went fine from then on. So, and the question really is why was Crisis PR brought in?
Crisis PR was brought in because there were negative stories about Justin that were being leaked to the media, not about sexual harassment. There were negative stories about Justin being brought in saying no one likes him. He's been a problem on set, stories like that and crisis PR was brought in to say, this won't be good for the film. Crisis PR was also brought in because there were negative stories about Blake Lively, not that Justin created, but that existed out there. I mean, fans and media can be brutal.
They go back through your history. They go back and look and say, what interviews have you given before? How have you treated people? How are you promoting the film in a way where you're promoting your hair care products and in a way that's not true and genuine as far as domestic violence is concerned. They go back and they see those videos.
They bring them out organically. That's not Justin doing that. That's not Justin's crisis PR doing it. In fact, what he wants is a successful movie. He wants to protect the movie and all through the text messages you'll see over and over and over again, him saying, I don't wanna hurt her.
I wanna protect her. Let's give her what she wants. Let's help her. That's what he's doing.
Speaker 0: Well, and I see a lot of Justin saying, we're we're not planting these stories. Right? Like, he's going to the PR team, seeing some of the bad PR against her saying, this isn't us. And they're saying, no. This isn't us.
There is an organic campaign unfolding against her. But there are very troubling texts between this crisis PR person, Melissa Nathan, and the regular PR person about what they'd like to do to Blake. And that's what's taken up most of the headlines. I have absolutely no use for PR people. I really can't stand them.
I know they have a job to do. But, like, just my own experience have been so negative that it's hard to think this is all defensible. But now that it's gone legal, you have to look at whether this is legal or actionable. Here's one of the the here's the thing I wanna start with. Alright?
I'm gonna give you your due, and then we're gonna get into what disturbed me about it. They definitely misrepresented some of the texts amongst these 2 gals. There is one in the Blake Lively lawsuit and it quotes a Daily Mail headline from August of 24. And this is Blake's lawsuit in paragraph 23. On August 16th, miss Nathan circulated a Daily Mail article entitled, is Blake Lively set to be canceled?
String of hard to watch hard to watch videos that have surfaced following tone deaf q and a to promote It Ends With Us could tarnish her golden Hollywood image for good. To which miss Abel, she was the other PR person, responded, speaking to miss Nathan. Wow. You really outdid yourself with this piece. And miss Nathan replied, that's why you hired me.
Right? I'm the best. Now this was in The New York Times. And when I read it, I was like, they've got them dead to rights. They've there's these 2 PR hacks sitting there saying, like, we planted this Daily Mail piece saying she's gonna be canceled.
She's a bad person, and they're celebrating it. And in your lawsuit against The New York Times, you offer up the rest of that text exchange. And it and I don't just mean what follows, like, in a line or 2. Right after, on the same line as the lines that are quoted in the lawsuit, in the complaint, and in The Times, there is, for example, the sarcasm emoji and, more importantly, an explicit denial by Melissa Nathan as she writes this that it wasn't her. So what the full text exchange that you've offered now shows is Jen Abel saying to Melissa, wow.
You really outdid yourself with this piece with the sarcasm emoji emoji, which is an upside down smiley face. They took out the sarcasm emoji in The New York Times. Then Melissa responds, that's why you hired me. Right? I'm the best.
They remove the next part where she says, heading to the airport, and there's a drive through the jungle that there's going to be no reception around for 24 hours, joke, 45 minutes, and there's a response about that joke. And then, Nathan says, same date, August 16th, Damn. This is unfair because it's also not me. Everything now looks like it's me, maybe not to you. And Jen Abel responds, no.
It totally does look like his side, but they are saying to one another, but it's not us. So, I mean, the full context and text, Brian, of the full exchange shows these 2 PR agents saying, she's getting hit. You know, I know you think it's me. It's not me.
Speaker 6: It's actually worse than that because the first text in that whole chain is a reporter who is saying to to, Melissa Nathan is showing her the article for the first time. You can tell that this is the first time that Melissa Nathan sees the article. She says, what? Blake like Lively is could Blake Lively be canceled? I mean, she's seeing it for the first time and saying, wow, I mean, this looks like it's me, but this is not me.
And you can tell that this is the first time Melissa Nathan has learned about this. She forwards that piece with the reporter to Jen Abel. So Jen Abel knows that Melissa Nathan is learning about it for the first time. She knows she's saying this isn't me. She knows that that that that that she doesn't want this to be her and that's not what they're trying to do.
And she sends it to Jen Abel. And Jen Abel looks at it and makes a joke. And and and, you know, with with an upside down emoji, that's sarcasm. They remove the emoji, they remove the piece about the reporter showing that Melissa saw it for the first time then and obviously couldn't be a part of it, and they remove the rest of the text messages showing that they're joking around. I mean, it's absolutely appalling what they did.
And if the New York Times is correct by their own response, we've done incredible reporting, we've done complete and accurate reporting. We've reviewed thousands of pages of text messages and documents and other things. And, you know, and we stand by our story. Really? Well, if you really reviewed these, then you would have reviewed those text messages and you would have known or should have known that this was actually all satire and that Melissa Nathan could have never planted that story because she didn't know about the story and she learned about it for the first time from the reporter and denied it right away.
And there's a plethora of text messages throughout saying this is not what they wanna do. And Justin instructing them, we're not planting stories, we're not using bots, None of
Speaker 0: that. Okay. But I I grant you all of that, and it seems very clear that Blake Lively's legal team made some very critical material omissions in their complaint, and so did the times, which is not okay. But if you look at the complaint and, again, this is just these are just allegations, and now you get the chance to deny them or respond to them. It doesn't sound good.
The the PR people talking about, you know, Blake and Justin. You know? Justin looking for assurances. He wants to be, calmed down, that they have a plan to to fight back if, you know, she does come out against him, that he didn't he didn't feel good about the document they sent over, and he wants to feel better. And then I'm just trying to pull up some of them.
There's some, like, here's Jen Abel saying, to Melissa Nathan, I'm having reckless thoughts of wanting to plant pieces this week of how horrible Blake is to work with, just to get ahead of it. She's putting us through hell. Melissa Nathan, same. Am I already off the record? Spoke to the editor of the Daily Mail because she's my friend.
She's ready when we are, says Melissa Nathan. Jennifer Abel. I think we really need to put the social combat plan then into motion. Melissa, Nathan, so do I. Let's see.
That's that's one representative. I'll get to some others. But they seem pretty explicit in their discussion about how it's time. Let's get her.
Speaker 6: Sure. And and and I think, you know, we we all need to understand what crisis PR is about, right? So they give options and they provide options of how they can clarify things, how they can correct things, how they can change things, how they can put things out there that are true and positive about someone. It's the difference here is that Justin never authorized anything And actually there's nothing that was done that was nefarious or in any way was any type of smear campaign. And in fact, it's just the opposite.
I mean, you would expect someone who's actually worried about himself, worried about the film, frankly worried about Blake Lively's own reputation and the effect on the film. To be prepared to have someone just in case something comes out that is negative about them, it is negative about the film or anything else. It's not like it's all a part of Hollywood. Everyone has crisis, a PR team that they can bring in that might help that. The question isn't whether someone came in and said we have options.
The question is, was anything done that was untoward or were articles placed or anything else? And what you see in the complaint, if you carefully look at it, the only article that they even claim that was placed was this one article, is Blake Lively about to be canceled? And there's unequivocal proof in there. There is a there are text messages that were left out of the complaint purposely, that were left out of the New York Times article purposely that completely refute that either Melissa, Jen, or anyone else, Justin, had anything to do with planting that story or even knowing about that story before they learned about it.
Speaker 0: So let's see here. Problem, because there's one thing for the PR hacks to sit around saying, this is how we'll get her. You know, you've hired us to advise you. If we need to get her, if she unleashes the hounds against you, this is what we'll do. That is one thing.
And it is quite another to prove then they actually did it. And I have to say that I I say this not just because I I'm your friend. I have no absolutely no feelings about this guy, Justin Baldoni. In fact, to be perfectly honest, I reviewed some of his social media, and he seems kind of ridiculous with his toxic masculinity, lamentations, and so on. But that's fine.
That's me. So I'm not on his side. But my point is simply, I just don't see it. In their incendiary complaint where they're trying to do their best to bash him and the PR team, I don't see that the second link loop closed of, and then here's where they did it. It's just all supposition.
They don't have these great texts saying, look what I got placed in the New York Post.
Speaker 6: Right. It's it's actually even worse than that. It's it's not just that they can't prove or don't have any evidence to show that it was done. There's actual evidence. There are text messages.
There are receipts. Right? That absolutely show Blake Lively's publicist, Leslie Sloan, placing, you know, actual stories and and hit pieces about Justin, in the daily mail and and in TMZ. And and we have text with the actual reporters that that show that this is exactly what's going on.
Speaker 0: So this is at the Daily Mail. I saw the the the text between the Daily Mail and you and some others in there, and the Daily Mail reporter is saying that this Melissa Nathan, who was at the heart of it for Justin, she was the crisis PR person they brought in, did not did not bash Blake Lively to him and was not doing that. And you've got Blake's person saying, I know it was Melissa. And you've got the Daily Mail saying, actually, no. Melissa's not doing it.
That
Speaker 6: that's exactly right. And then you have Blake's person actually in an exchange with the Daily Mail reporter changing a story completely to go from was Blake Lively difficult on the set to change that into does the cast and crew all hate Justin? I mean, it's that's when you start to talk about a smear campaign. You start to look at it from that standpoint. And for the New York Times, not to have looked at those text messages, not to have caught them, not to have bothered to ask questions about them is just the reckless disregard for the truth.
Speaker 0: She does deny that. I should point out to the audience that in Blake's complaint, they deny that they have unleashed any sort of campaign hurting or hitting Justin. They say that explicit that they haven't. I I realize you contest that, but that's a point of dispute. I did find the Justin Baldoni text to which I was referring earlier.
Let me just read it. It's him, let's see, expressing concerns that the PR people's written plan was insufficiently aggressive to, quote, protect him. That's what Blake Lively is alleging. And they includes include a screen grab of a text in which he says to said team, morning, not in love with the document they sent. Not sure I'm feeling the protection I felt on the call.
And then it's this next text exchange that's made all the papers. In response, the 2 PR ladies start discussing that message from Justin, which was to one of them. So Jennifer Abel says to Melissa Nathan, the crisis gal, okay. Blah blah blah. I'm gonna confidentially send you something.
He's texting me and Jamie on the side just to arm you before this call. I think you guys need to be tough and show the strengths of strength of what you guys can do in these scenarios. He wants to feel like she can be buried. Then Melissa responds to Jennifer. Of course.
But, you know, when we send over documents, we can't send over the work we would or could do because that could get us in a lot of trouble. We can't write it down to him. We can't write, we will destroy her. We will go to this. We will do this.
We will do that. We will do this. It has to look he has to look at it as an information document for us to be armed with. That's all. Imagine if a document saying all the things that he wants ends up in the wrong hands.
You know we can bury anyone, but I can't write that to him. I will. I'll be very tough. And then, Brian, on top of that, they submit in the next paragraph, 15, a a text from Justin to the PR team, miss Abel, Jennifer Abel, with a screen grab of Blake Lively. I'm sorry.
I forgot not blah blah. Bieber. Hailey Bieber. And it's a it's an article about Hailey Bieber allegedly bullying women, and he writes to the team, this is what we would need. So their allegation is everybody's talking about how he needs to feel better.
We will bury. We we are totally capable of burying her. We're prepared to do that. And then you got him saying, here's an example of what I what I would need, you know, dismissing her as a bully. So, you know, you and I in other context might say all this is circumstantial evidence that supports the plan, though the execution of the plan, the actual articles, we may not have in hand, but there's a supposition that they close the deal.
Speaker 6: But let let's actually break it down. Because what you and I would do, because you're a great lawyer. And if you weren't amazing at what you do, you would be the best lawyer in town, that's for sure. So So let's break it down. So the first thing they say, and you went over it was, the plan wasn't sufficiently aggressive for him.
You'll find the word aggressive in the complaint. What you won't find is the word aggressive in the text message because he never wants something that's aggressive. He wants something that's protective, and there's a big difference. Aggressive means you're gonna go out and attack. Protective means if something comes out, I wanna make sure I'm protected.
So he says the plan doesn't look sufficiently protective to me. Meaning that you got all these attack things in the plan. I don't want to attack anyone. Right? I just want to make sure there's not attacks on us.
Everything in his words is protection, not planting stories, not doing anything offensive, not doing anything with bots or anything like that. And then, you know, as you as you walk through that text message string, it's so taken out of context. Because what they're saying is, we can't put this in writing to him. Right? They can't put it writing to him because he's expressed over and over and over again, he doesn't wanna go on the offensive.
He doesn't wanna start, you know, attacking anyone. He wants to actually protect her. She actually he actually wants to protect the film, and he wants to protect himself from negative press. That's exactly what he wants to do. He wants to be protective.
That's all through there. They realize that if they give him a plan that's an attacking plan or saying we're going to bury her or anything like that, he's going to say, we're not hiring you. We don't want anything to do with this. That's what they're talking about. This is all taken out of context.
And if they would have included other text messages, you would have seen that to be the clear intention. It's easy to pluck and hand and and and and cherry pick certain text messages that say certain things, but this is nothing of the sort. And let's talk about the Hailey Bieber text. Right? What he's talking about is, this is what we need.
We we don't need to do this. We need actually people to come out and say, she's a bully, if that's what happens. Right? Like people will come out naturally, organically and say that. Nobody planted the Hailey Bieber story, that was from a fan who put that out there.
Speaker 2: What he's saying is what we need is, as a protective plan, is that people come out and tell the truth. And and if Blake Lively is a bully, that they're gonna come out
Speaker 6: and say that. That's what he wants as a plan, not to plant stories or anything else. As a matter of fact, that's belied by all of the texts that he's sent. Right? He's set
Speaker 0: in the war room. This go back this goes back back to my early on question, which is, is it retaliation if somebody who's accused you of sexual harassment or, you know, acts that she finds unacceptable on a set, if you deny them but say, okay. I'll I'll implement your reforms. And then she, through a PR person, later comes out and starts hitting you publicly, in the press. Is it is it retaliation as a legal matter for you directly or through your PR agents to say, she's a bully.
This is a bad person. Like, I just I'm not sure it is. I if you are doing it to punish somebody for the for the sexual harassment allegations, that's one thing. But if you are in the position of denying, it's been settled, the person's admitted that everything's been okay since then, and then you have creative differences, she's trying to arrest control of the film and all that, and she's trying to undermine you publicly. And then you kinda say, you're kind of an asshole.
I don't know that that's even legally retaliatory.
Speaker 6: It's actually not retaliatory. It's actually it it's called providing a defense. It's called like the United States of America. Apparently, some people think they can just make any allegation they want. And you can't say no, that's not true.
And you can't say no, that's not what happened. But there's no public allegation at that time that he's engaged in any type of sexual harassment or anything like that. So this whole idea of the smear campaign has nothing to do with that. It has to do with the protection from whatever she is going to say about him. And in fact, she used all of this to take over the film.
And what he's complaining about frankly is sitting there having as a director having a film taken away from him, having editors who are real human beings, right? Who like have lives, you know, not being able to see the actual film, you know, at the premiere, even at the premiere, they're gonna see the film they edited for the first time because she took over the editing. Right? You know, these are the things that are being complained about. Right?
And and is he allowed to deny that he sexually harassed her? Absolutely. It's the United States of America. You can deny it. There's not there's not a smear campaign going on because she made those allegations.
There's a protective campaign that's in existence if needed in case she starts to say things like, oh, well, he was a terrible director or everybody hated him on set or, you know, he shouldn't have never been in the position that he was in or he did a terrible job. Anything that was negative like that or the film wasn't proper or appropriate or even bring your florals, bring your friends, like we're going to domestic violence, Right? We're going to a domestic violence movie and and and she wants to turn it into a Barbie set. So, like, those are the things that he wants to protect. He wants to protect her frankly, even from her own.
Own, kind of lack of social proper graces in knowing what this film is about and not turning it into a sideshow that it's some party, there's a message here. He always cared about the message. He wanted to protect the domestic violence victims and that community. And that's who he is as a person, and that's who he is as a filmmaker. And at the end of the day, he was willing to give up all of these rights to her because of her threats, and because he thought the message was more important than his own, you know, than his own, frankly, his own career.
Speaker 0: The, timeline of disc of discussions between Justin and the editors does show a guy who had ceded a lot to Blake Lively. He writes in February or March time frame 2024. I let her in. What's best for the movie is that I suck it up, and I let her in. They point out in this text exchange, one of the editors, that she's been getting what she wants for this entire movie.
That's well, that's what, Justin responds. The editor says, I want Blake to feel like she's getting what she wants, so we can move on from this need of hers. He responds, she's been getting what she wants the entire movie. There's the him acknowledging that Blake has approval over specific scenes. She redid the so called nudity rider to get approval of what happens to the young version of her character, which isn't even played by Blake.
They lament in this text exchange, again, posted at megankelly.com, that the editors and the director are not allowed to look at the actress's cut. Okay. We'll continue taking the high road. And the editors talking about how they have not seen the movie before it's about to be shown at Book Bonanza, her cut. Justin saying they were supposed to show ours, and then I was uninvited.
The whole thing's pretty cruel and intense. Now, this is, you know, this is the other side of the story. I want the audience to understand. This is not it's we're not taking a position here on who's right and who's wrong and what's out there, but all you've been hearing is what a cad this guy is. He's been canceled, drop dumped by his agent.
Agents are disgusting, at, William Morris Endeavor. He had some award taken away from him, you know, that acknowledged his fight in the past for women, and he's doing a domestic violence movie. And every single newspaper has got him out there as, like, a Harvey Weinstein type for god's sake. This is the other side of the story, and there's more to it. Up next, we're gonna talk about what what did happen in the press with respect to break Blake Lively, over the summer, and was his team behind any of it?
Okay. We're gonna go through some of the examples. Brian, on behalf of Justin, has filed a lawsuit against The New York Times for what he says is their irresponsible false reporting, where they just took Blake Lively's allegations, he says, and put them in their paper without contacts and without checking to see whether they were in fact true and accurate. By the way, are you going to sue Justin Bell or are you going to sue Blake Lively too?
Speaker 6: Into oblivion, Megan. Wait till you see this lawsuit.
Speaker 0: Oh, boy. For what?
Speaker 6: I'm just going to tell you, you're going to have to wait and see. It's coming up soon. But it's all going to be based on evidence. It's not going to be just a lawsuit. It's going to be the kind of lawsuit that is full of evidence, admissions, documents, which prove exactly what she did and how she bullied her way through the process to take over the movie and used her PR people to try and destroy Justin.
And that's what it's going to be essentially about. But there will be a number of causes of action. There's a number of different defendants here. Stephanie Jones will be all over this complaint. That is the PR agent who was supposed to be working for Justin Baldoni.
There's Leslie Sloan, who's another PR agent who will be part of this lawsuit that was Blake Lively's. Blake Lively will be sued, and, you know, and we're carefully considering other people that will be sued also.
Speaker 0: And some Ryan Reynolds?
Speaker 6: Was a surprise. Ryan Reynolds, for sure.
Speaker 0: Oh, wow. He was involved in this to some extent. There was a meeting at their apartment at which, you alleged that there were some senior production, people who witnessed him allegedly berate Justin Baldoni to the point where these 3rd parties felt upset that they didn't do more to stand up for Justin, that they thought Ryan Reynolds was so abusive. I think he would say, I was standing up for my wife who'd been sexually harassed by this guy and so on. But what role did he have in all of this?
Speaker 6: Well, you know, arguably, you know, for the first time at the premiere, you find out that Blake Lively tells people that all of a sudden he wrote a scene in the movie. Shocking everybody, shocking Sony, shocking the production staff. It's the first time they're hearing it. And Justin handles that really, really well and doesn't want to say she's a liar or doesn't want to say that's inappropriate or doesn't want to say that's part of someone else's job. And he treats her very well about that.
But what Ryan Reynolds has seemingly done, right, is used his power and influence to not only help Blake Lively take over this movie, but, you know, he's used it, you know, on on Deadpool and to make fun of Justin Baldoni.
Speaker 0: Do you think
Speaker 2: do you
Speaker 0: think that's what he did? We have a clip where his character Deadpool, which is very popular in this movie, acts more like more like the Justin Baldoni that I said turned me off with the, like, I'm against toxic masculinity. And, there's a question about whether he was taking a shot at Justin. Here's the clip.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. Come here, girl. Who are you? Oh, I'm Deadpool. And I guess you're Deadpool too.
Speaker 8: But in here, everybody calls me Nicepool. Oh my goodness. Wait till you see Lady Poole. She is gorgeous. She just had a baby too and can't even tell.
Speaker 6: I don't think you're supposed to say that.
Speaker 8: That's okay. I identify as a feminist. Right.
Speaker 0: What do you make of that?
Speaker 6: What I make of that is that if your wife is sexually harassed, you don't make fun of Justin Baldoni. You you you don't make fun of the situation. You take it very seriously. You file HR complaints. You raise the issue and you follow a legal process.
What you don't do is mock the person and turn it into a joke. There's no question it relates to Justin. I mean, anybody that can watch that hair bun, the comment about the pregnancy. I mean, it's pretty obvious what's being done. But again, like if somebody is seriously sexually harassed, you don't make fun of it.
It's a serious issue.
Speaker 0: The, the press for Blake did get bad in the summer of 2024, this past summer. And the one clip that went everywhere involved a young reporter who was interviewing what I my understanding is Blake, but you can't totally see it in this clip, was about 8 months pregnant. And the reporter remarked on Blake's baby bump. And then, Blake, I'm gonna play it, but she snaps back about the reporter's alleged baby bump. The reporter did not have a baby bump.
She wasn't pregnant. And apparently, it had a history of difficulty in getting pregnant, which is why generally you just stay far away for something like that in exchange. But it went very, very viral. And people were saying Blake Lively was inappropriate and a bully, and it wasn't the first time. And then we saw a bunch of videos.
Here it is, with reporter that clip with, reporter Kirsty Flaugh.
Speaker 3: First of all, congrats on your little bump. Congrats on your little bump. Did you guys love wearing those kind of clothes that you Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah. And,
Speaker 3: you know, working in general
Speaker 2: wants to
Speaker 3: talk about the clothes, but I wonder if they would ask the men about the clothes. I would. Yeah. It's not just the women that that have the clothes.
Speaker 0: But I tell you when
Speaker 3: we get the conversation.
Speaker 0: So there, she was upset about being asked about the clothing. But here's Blake Lively in a different interview with People Magazine talking about her clothing in this particular movie. That that exchange with Kirsty was not about, this particular movie. But here she is totally fine with talking about wardrobe in slot 15.
Speaker 3: I just really loved those patchwork, like, jeans that you have.
Speaker 0: Magnolia pearls. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Those are my real life jeans. Yeah. A lot of that is, like, your stuff. The boots were mine. I love them.
There's these great Louboutins that are also a close-up on them when we're dancing in the bar. Those are mine. I have a few of my husband's shirts and socks randomly in the movie. I have some of Gigi Hadid's sweaters in the movie. I'm yeah.
I don't know. There's a lot of my stuff.
Speaker 0: So the reason I'm showing this to to the audience is that people started noticing that Blake seemed sort of bully ish to this person who has far less power and stature in the industry than Blake does. And why did she do that? It was an and when a woman's 8 months pregnant, it is not abnormal to acknowledge it in an interview in a fun way, but she didn't seem to take well to it. And Fla responded afterwards saying that this whole thing got, you know, publicized, your your lawsuit, saying she is in no way connected to any attempt to smear Blake Lively. She doesn't know the PR people involved in this, and she said as follows.
I'm a journalist. This is what I do for a living. I would never accept money to jeopardize my integrity. I posted the video after I saw the movie, which I didn't like. I had a bad experience with Blake Lively.
At the time, I kind of had enough of Hollywood. I wasn't afraid of being canceled anymore, so I posted the video. So that one, which I think is the most famous example, Brian, the journalist herself is saying she had absolutely no connection to Justin Baldoni or these PR agents that we've been discussing. And is that basically your point that it would you say the vast majority, most, all of the negative press generated about Blake in the summer did not actually originate with this PR team?
Speaker 6: I I would say all of it did not generate with this PR team. I mean, I you know, since I've been involved in this case, I've gotten 50 either texts or emails or things to my firm's website, more than 50 actually about this was my experience with Blake Lively. We weren't allowed to talk to her on the set. We weren't allowed to ask for an autograph. We were instructed this way or that, we were treated like this.
I mean, and these things aren't coming because that we're doing an investigation. These are completely organic. These are based on people's real life experiences. In fact, we've come across evidence that shows that even her own representatives knew that she was threatening and mean and tough and wanted to get her way. This is not something that we wanted out there.
It's not something that Justin wanted out there. In fact, it hurts the movie. It doesn't help the movie. And Justin knew that. And Justin's, this was about domestic violence and getting the message across.
I mean, I'll just give you a couple of examples. In April May of 2024, when Blake Lively got her own cut of the movie, Justin said, in a text message to his editors, the editors and director isn't allowed to look at an actress cut, got it. Well, here we go, we will keep taking the high road. Even when Justin Baldoni's, his version, his cut of the film, the Baldoni cut, I'll call it, scored significantly higher than Blake Lively's cut. And and still Blake Lively's cut was the one that was chosen.
He still didn't do anything publicly, about that. And and that was the one chosen, you you know, because of the threats made by Blake Lively. In fact, we have a source that tells us that some of the cut that she had has some of Baldoni's version in it. I mean, in June of 2024, Blake Lively took over the marketing for the film. Again, there's nothing negative in the press or anything else like that and Justin just wants to take the high road.
Blake is in June of 2024, Blake's cut is chosen to be shown at Book Bonanza and Justin and his editing team haven't even seen it. I mean, they haven't even seen it and faxed it in a text message that they're not allowed to. Justin is shut out. He's giving notes as a direct as a studio, not as a director. He has not seen the locked cut of the film in July of 2024.
And in August 5, 2024, Justin invites the editors to the premiere, but they can't be in the same room with Blake. Justin replies, we won't be in the same room. I was asked not to even come to the premiere. And the editors say, it would be very hard for me to sit and watch the final film for the first time at the premiere. And Justin replies, okay.
Yeah. I haven't seen it either. And, you know, that's when you get to, you know, the voice note. And even in September of 2024, without criticizing Blake at all, he says to the editors, one day we'll finish our cut together. I would of course love to show the world the beautiful version that he did.
And he says in September of 2024, the purpose of the movie, the amount of women who feel seen. That's why we did this, and it worked. And, you know, there are statistical scores of the movie showing that Justin's version, the Baldoni cut, scored higher than Blake Lively's cut.
Speaker 0: With the 135 year old female demo.
Speaker 6: Yes. And notwithstanding, because of her threats that she wouldn't market, the film, that she wouldn't do publicity, that's why her cut was released.
Speaker 0: Mhmm. The she had some problems in promoting the film. She now says that they were told, they agreed with a marketing plan that would not lean into the sadness of domestic violence, that they would lean more into the female empowerment nature of overcoming it, and that, therefore, she didn't promote it in any way that was not on brand for what they had settled on. When she promoted it, she also generated a new round of bad publicity for herself, and it's discussed amongst the PR agents saying, this wasn't us, this was her. Here's an example of Blake Lively being a bit too, perhaps, lighthearted in promoting a film about a very serious subject matter in SOP 13.
Speaker 3: And It Ends With Us is in theaters now, so grab your friends, wear your florals, and head out to see it.
Speaker 2: So if someone understands the themes of this movie, comes across you in public, and and they wanna really talk
Speaker 1: to you, what's the best way
Speaker 2: for them to be able to talk to you about this? How would you recommend they go about it?
Speaker 3: Like asking for, like, my address or my phone number or, like, my location share. We could just location share you, and then we could, So we're making the hot chocolate cookies that that Atlas makes for young Lily in our movie, It Ends With Us. You guys, we talked about our movie. Not at all. Thanks for joining us.
In theaters, August 9th. Yeah. That's a wrap, guys. We got it.
Speaker 0: So this is what this is your point, Brian, that when when she was out there talking about it, she seemed a bit too glib. She was flippant.
Speaker 6: I mean, the public's not stoop not stupid. Right? They they see this, And, you know, everybody is their own investigative journalist, and everybody has their own point of view. And the domestic violence community, I feel like was outraged over it. And, and and again, you know, this wasn't something that Justin pointed to.
Like, it was something Justin wanted to help with, but he couldn't help with it because she had already taken over the marketing campaign. It was her marketing campaign at that point.
Speaker 0: Going back to sort of the underlying dispute between the 2 of them. Because I think a lot of people may be wondering why. Why would Blake Lively work so hard to wrest control of this film away from him? Like, she's a rich person. She's gonna get other movies.
Like, why would she have done this? Isn't it more plausible that she just didn't like him because of the 17 points she raised where,
Speaker 2: you
Speaker 0: know, and that there's quite a bit in there. I'll read just a couple so people know what we're talking about. It turned into a 30 point document that they got promises from Justin he would rectify. I'll just give a couple of examples, but this is what she was saying she was subjected to. When in order to come back to work in January, she said there there can be no more showing nude videos or images of women, including producer's wife to break Blake Lively or her employers, no more mention of mister Baldon Mount Baldoni's or Heath's previous pornography addiction or Blake Lively's lack of porn consumption, no more discussions to Blake Lively and her employees about personal experiences with sex, including as it relates to spouses, no more mentions to Blake Lively or her employees of personal times that physical consent was not given in sexual acts, No more descriptions of their own genitalia to Blake Lively.
Right? So, like, all these are so ugly that it it definitely leaves the reader thinking, these guys are a bunch of jerks. No wonder she hated them.
Speaker 6: So so let let's be really clear about what this 30 point list was. This 30 point list was never provided to Justin or Jamie or anyone else. Never. And I challenge anyone to find an email or a text message where it was provided to them at all. As a matter of fact, they category it's written in such a way it says no more.
No more, like presuming that it happened already. The only thing that was provided to them in writing was the 17 point list, which included things that they wouldn't do anyway. If this 30 point list was so important and that that they had never seen or heard before, frankly, that that showed up for the first time in writing in the complaint of all things. If that was so important, why didn't they say no? Unless you signed the 30 point list, we're not coming back.
The 17 point list were were natural, normal things that they wouldn't do anyway. The 17 point list is a ruse. Putting things in there like no more presupposes it happened before. This is part of just the absolute misrepresentation of what the truth is. It's just not true.
That 30 point list never shown to them.
Speaker 0: Let me ask about some specifics in here because I and I'm just gonna go to the place that hurts. I'll I'll read you the ones that jumped out at me as not good. Not good. Page 48 of her complaint. On another occasion, mister Baldoni and miss Lively were filming a slow dance scene for a montage in which no sound was recorded.
Mister Baldoni chose to let the camera roll and have them perform the scene, but did not act in character as Ryle, which was the name of his character. Instead, he spoke to miss Lively out of character as himself. At one point, he leaned forward and slowly dragged his lips from her ear and down her neck as he said, it smells so good. None of this was remotely in character or based on any dialogue in the script, and nothing needed to be said because, again, there was no sound. Mister Baldoni was caressing miss miss Lively with his mouth in a way that had nothing to do with their roles.
When miss Lively later objected to this behavior, mister Baldoni's response was, I'm not even attracted to you. You wanna take that one on?
Speaker 6: Love to take that one on. That that's that's you you you know what? Documents don't lie. People do. So let's go to the footage.
Let's take a look at the footage and let's see exactly what it shows. And, you know, let's talk about the film. Like like we're not making, you know, Bugs Bunny here. Right? Like this is a film about domestic violence.
This is a film about sexual scenes. This is a film, and if Blake Lively had objected to that, why didn't she stop in that moment and say, enough, that's it, I'm not doing this, she doesn't need the money, she doesn't need any of that. I mean, this is so taken out of context and there's footage on all of this. So, you'll be able to see how Blake Lively reacted to it, what she said as a result of it, how she reacted after that scene, you know, as she was walking away from that scene, there is footage of all of that. So all of this will come out.
This is lawyers writing things in such a way that is as salacious as possible to try to have someone, you know, make up for their own, you know, problem with their own reputation. And she wants an excuse. She wants to blame him for that.
Speaker 0: Let's go to paragraph 52. There's a birth scene in the movie. When the birth scene she's the mother. When the birth scene was filmed, the set was chaotic, crowded, and utterly lacking in standard industry protections for filming nude scenes, such as choreographing the scene with an intimacy coordinator, having assigned nudity rider, or simply turning off the monitors so the scene was not broadcast to all crew on set and on their personal phones and iPads. Mister Heath and mister Baldoni also failed to close the set, allowing nonessential crew to pass through while
Speaker 2: miss Lively was mostly nude
Speaker 0: with her legs spread wide in stirrups and only a small piece of fabric covering her genitalia. Among the nonessential persons present that day was Wayfarer cochairman mister Sarawitz who flew in for one of his few set visits. Miss Lively was not provided with anything to cover herself between takes until after she had multiple had made multiple requests. She became even more alarmed when mister Baldoni introduced his, quote, best friend to play the role of the OBGYN when ordinarily a small role of this nature would be filled by a local actor. She felt the selection of mister Baldoni's friend for this intimate role in which the actor's face and hands were in close proxy proximity to her nearly new genitalia for a birth scene was invasive and humiliating.
This here's my note, Brian. I've I've circled it, and this is what my note reads. Bad. Bad. That sounds bad.
Speaker 6: So, Megan, what when was this? Was this after the 17 point list was agreed to?
Speaker 0: I don't know. I don't remember.
Speaker 6: Well, but let let let's put it this way. If it was and her complaint says everything was fine moving forward, you have a little bit of a discrepancy in the document itself. But again, you know, you know, the the greatest part of these complaints about onset behavior,
Speaker 2: is is this is all filmed.
Speaker 6: This is, you know, there's no surprises here. This is all going to be on tape and the truth is all gonna come out of exactly what happened. And just Lively does not strike me as someone, you know, who's not in a position of power. Right? Mhmm.
She she is controlling her own destiny. And and trust me, she's not someone who was taking advantage of any step of this of the of this project. And Well,
Speaker 0: that's one of the weirdnesses of this. She she had more power than he did. For sure. There's no question she had more power than he did. So the thought of her just sitting there like, oh, poor me.
My genitals are exposed. I mean, I it just doesn't seem characteristic. Even those interviews, you can see see she's a very strong personality. Now she wants us to believe she was this shrinking violet on the set being exploited by all these mean guys like Justin Baldoni. I don't know, Brian.
I'm not sure whether this will be bought. The other thing is that I do think we should spend a minute on is, you know, you referenced it in passing, but there there are allegations in here that are already falling apart, like the thing about the breastfeeding on the set and how, allegedly, Justin and his partner, Heath, were barging into her trailer, and, like, watching her breastfeed and looking at her naked breasts without her consent, which would be outrageous if true. But you include in your complaint, the following text exchange between Blake Lively and Justin, where he's acknowledging that she and her baby are sick in some way. I'm sorry. That's the last thing that you needed right now.
I pray it comes and goes with the mild symptoms. I'm here for you anytime. Would love to check-in. I know this week was a lot. I'm committed to making things run smoother.
She responds, our mistake. Molly did get the new pages at 11 last night. She didn't realize they were new, but you can always send them to me as well, please. And then she adds, I'm just pumping in my trailer if you wanna work out our lines. And he responds, copy eating with crew, and we'll head that way.
She says, take your time. Then he says, I'm here. I'll meet you in hair and makeup. She says, okay. I'm sorry just seeing this.
So she says that. She seems to be the one saying, I'm pumping. If you wanna come over, I'm I'm we can work out our lines. Then the other thing is that nude birth scene, which I do think we should talk about Because I was creeped out by this allegation too. She alleges in her lawsuit that that the the partner, Heath, wanted to talk porn with her.
And she felt very uncomfortable, and she was doing this birth scene, and he, like, whipped out a picture or a video of a birth scene with his wife nude. And she felt like this is really inappropriate and uncomfortable. And you write in your complaint against The Times that, this article, based on Lively's internal complaint, sensationally alleges that mister Heath had shown Lively a video of his naked wife, even labeling labeling labeling the footage she did as pornography. This is patently absurd. The video in question was a non pornographic rec recording of Heath's wife and baby during a home birth, a deeply personal one with no sexual overtone.
To distort the benign event into an act of sexual misconduct emblematic of the links to which Lively and her collaborators are willing to go to defame plaintiffs. And you include a screen grab from the video, which I have to say, not only looks absolutely wholesome, but made me wish I had had a home birth of my own kids in a bathtub in my husband's arms the way that like, my point is simply, I'm starting to glean that this is not a truth teller on the other side.
Speaker 6: I you know, there is a complaint filed with the civil rights division that is signed under penalty of perjury as a representative of Blake Lively that this is true and correct. And that complaint says this was Jamie Keith showing her pornography. That take I mean, I wish we could show the picture, but but We're going to. That's not that that's not pornography. And and it's part of it's part of the the artistic creativity of a birth scene that that that they're talking about.
And it's not like he even played the video for her. It's this screenshot of of the first screen. It's anything but pornography. So to swear under penalty of perjury that everything's true and correct and to call that pornography is gonna really be an interesting deposition. Isn't it?
Speaker 0: Mhmm. Well, I think it's not gonna go as well as the one between you and yours truly, Webb. Then, there's the the notion of her saying that Justin Baldoni called her sexy, called somebody else on the set sexy, And you've got, in your complaint against The Times, a text exchange between Blake and Justin in which Blake Lively raises the issue of
Speaker 2: how
Speaker 0: they can make her character look sexier. And she writes, we'll show you both ways. It's something about a hat, but beanie is much sexier. It's the look. Feels TV without and then goes on, especially with a crop top in the snow.
It justifies the rest of the skin and. And so your point is simply, it's one thing for her and her lawsuit suit to say, oh my god. He's, like, calling her sexy, and and then you see they were discussing what would make the character look sexy. So it's like there really are some contexts to the discussions that have been blasted all over The New York Times in this lawsuit. And, I mean, my own feeling in seeing all this, Brian, is just, like, withhold judgment.
You know? We've been doing trial by media for years now, for years, and it doesn't work well. It really doesn't. No one takes the time to go through a responsive document like the one you filed. Most lawyers don't file a responsive document like you filed.
They they don't fight the PR war, and then they lose it. So what's your prediction of where things go for from here?
Speaker 6: I mean, you know, my prediction is is is is that this is gonna get worse and worse for Blake Lively. And the reason it's gonna get worse and worse is people are gonna be more comfortable telling the truth. And what this is about is really the truth. And she's put Jamie Heath and Justin Baldoni in this position of being called sexual predators, sexual harassers. They have no choice but to go all the way, no choice.
So, we're going to go all the way. And the unique thing again in this case is going to be, we're going to put every single text message out there, we're going to put every email out there, We're gonna put every document out there that's relevant to the case, not something that's disrespectful or otherwise would embarrass miss Lively because that's not what we wanna do. But we wanna make sure that people have the facts and people can make their own determinations as to what happened. Sure. Could people have felt comfortable during filming?
Absolutely. It's it's an uncomfortable situation at times when you have sex scenes and when you have domestic violence issues, then that's what you're talking about. But Justin is the kind of person that takes responsibility for it. That if he knows about something that someone feels uncomfortable with, he's willing to change, he's willing to take responsibility for it. That's what, that's who he's about, right?
He's not a sexual predator, not even close. And for her to weaponize that and use that to take over this film, makes me question what's really going on. And this power couple and this power dynamic are using that power to be able to try and really destroy someone's life. You know, both Jamie and Justin are married, they have lives, Justin has children, know? They have to listen and read about this.
It it's it's terrible. It's terrible for their careers. Their careers are over unless we fight back, and we will fight back like no one has ever fought back.
Speaker 0: Do you think Ryan Reynolds was responsible for WME, which I think is his agency that he's represented by, dumping Justin?
Speaker 6: I I I don't know because I don't know the facts of whether he's he's responsible or not, but, certainly, coincidence is an indicator of truth.
Speaker 0: The finally, her lawsuit claims that she suffered too. Claims that her hair company got attacked online, unfairly by bots with no followers, disparaging it. She's got a a line of hair care products. That her booze company she doesn't drink apparently, but she's got a booze company. Same that she has been in bed, unable to function for periods of time, that her children her children, that Ryan Reynolds too has suffered, that they have suffered mightily as a result of this alleged smear campaign against them in response to which you say?
Speaker 6: I I think they're suffering because they filed a lawsuit that is slowly, being shown to be a fabrication.
Speaker 2: I think
Speaker 6: that's where they're suffering. And I think that had they not filed a lawsuit, they wouldn't be suffering. And it's only going to get worse because as we unearth every single document and we put it out there for the public to see the truth, that's where the real suffering is. And they had no business trying to destroy people's lives. But when you back someone in a corner, give them no option and call someone a sexual predator and make up that there's a smear campaign, what do you expect?
People aren't just gonna kowtow to them because they're a power couple.
Speaker 0: We will continue to watch it. Brian Friedman, so great to have you. Thank you so much for sharing so much with
Speaker 6: us. Thank you. And so good to see you. I really appreciate you as a person and, and just love you so much, truly.
Speaker 0: Likewise. We've been through quite a battle together, and, I think we both emerged the better for it. I in your debt, as you know. Well, the one and only Brian Friedman, he did not disappoint. Right?
He's a brilliant lawyer. You can see why I have him on retainer just in case anyone messes with me. And I'd love to know your thoughts on this. Right? I don't I don't really know these characters.
It's not my it's not my world, Hollywood. But I remember seeing the videos of her last summer thinking, yeah, she sounds annoying. And I when I read The Times article outing, you know, his alleged bad I'd never heard his name before. I have not seen the film. The the thing that stood out to me was I don't understand this because she's the one in the power position here.
It's Blake Lively and some guy who pretty much nobody knows. And she's on the set. She's the star. How is it that she got so, you know, bullied and taken advantage of? And then they're talking about how they had meetings with Ryan Ryan Reynolds, like and, again, he's way more powerful than any of the what is Justin Baldoni's interest in alienating, picking on, harassing Blake Lively, and alienating her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
Like, why would he do that? Now maybe he did. You know, maybe he did. Maybe there's something wrong with him. There's a there's a text in his messages where he talks about how we should we should talk about the fact that I'm neurodivergent.
So maybe he is making excuses for bad behavior there. Or maybe she is ex especially sensitive and prone to playing the victim and wanted things just exactly the way she wanted them and decided that she wasn't treated in the way she wanted to be, and she was gonna make this guy pay. Because you see him almost in the fetal position in these texts over and over. Like, we let's give her what she wants. Let's not upset her.
Just let it happen. Like, he's afraid of her. You can see in these texts. Even with this text with the PR people, he is scared of her. He knows what she can do to him.
And, the question here is, what did he do to protect himself? He definitely talked with PR agents about protecting him. And the question is, what exactly did those PR agents do? They talked a big game. They did talk like big swagger and cowboys who could destroy her.
Did they actually do it? That I don't see in her allegations. I see swagger, but I don't see the substance of it, other than some minor things which you would expect where they, you know, tried to get good PR going for Justin or do nice, you know, sort of messaging around the film. All that's fair game. Anyway, look.
This is what I did. This is I'm as you know, I'm not feeling well. I was up till 2:2 AM. This is her complaint. Look at all my notes.
Okay? Then this is Justin's complaint, and these are all my notes that I just went through, many of them with Ryan. This is the timeline of all the text messaging between Justin and those 2 editors, the so called Dream Team, which we're posting on megankelly.com, and you can look through them all yourself. Articles, packets. I'm neck deep in this weird industry that I really want nothing to do with, but it's the case everyone's been talking about.
And as you know, I love Brian Friedman. So, let me know what you think. Megan@megankelly.com. Megan@megankelly.com. We are back tomorrow with the 5th column.
See you then.
