Rumors that they were going into Chapter 11 were going around last year, and they seemed plausible even if BSA denied them at the time. The hit from the Mormons leaving wasn’t just the loss of a couple hundred thousand members - the church put a lot of money into scouting.

Yeah his mother’s defense is not making it seem like an innocent accident that could happen to anyone. Trying to use his willingess to break into a random penthouse to find his wife and kids who left him only shows she’s right to stay away and not let him know her location.

And defending her rapist brother 

Isn’t Nicki Minaj busy being married to a sex offender?

I love her so. I hate that the media is pretending she doesn’t exist while also letting/helping Bloomberg literally buy his way into the nomination.

Agree they should leave people alone. But harassment's about power, not horniness.

Here’s a nice little palette cleanser for you all:

When your whole shtick is being “edgy” this is the ultimate conclusion.

I was going to ask if she doesn’t have anyone on staff that could’ve told her that this was a lousy idea, but then I remembered her hair and make-up and realised that, no, she does not.

Imagine my dismay when I stumbled across her show one day only to discover it wasn’t the Wendy O Williams show......

Just saw the trailer for Lovebirds this morning before a showing of Birds of Prey. Kumail and Issa are a pairing that I did not know I wanted until now.  I hope it turns out as good as the trailer makes it look.

My mom’s favorite Chicago Med show on network TV has a couple with an african american woman, and an asian man.  I’ve only see a few episodes while she is visiting, but doesn’t seem that they make much of the fact.  I actually wish they would.  Explore how the differences affect their lives.  But its just 2…

“Hate her all you want but if not her, then it’ll be someone else”

Yes, although much like with the whole “free speech!” argument when people say shitty and or racist/sexist things, you can say whatever you want, or in this case, you can defend your client as aggressively as possible, technically doing your job. But that sure as hell does not spare you from being roasted, criticized…

“New York common sense”? Fuck off, Rotunno. NY common sense says that men like this are dangerous schmucks.

Seriously - common sense tells you that the guy whom dozens (hundreds? I’ve lost count) of women say they were raped by did in fact do the raping.

Every attorney must deal with an unsavory client from time to time. But I don’t defend my shitty clients and sexual assault in general in personal interviews with the Times.

She is vile vomit garbage.

Rotunno appealing to “New York City common sense” is, wow, super, super dumb from a trial strategy perspective. Common sense—the impulse to follow preconceptions, instinct, and, yeah, emotion, ya dummy—is what had people turning on Weinstein so quickly after the various reports of his crimes finally hit the newscycle.

…

Well, I look forward to seeing how her case was different when I watch Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts play her in two separate mini series and we get to the scene where they’re celebrating her inevitable win in Harvey’s hotel room and he casts aside his courtroom prop and lunges at her.
