Blake Lively's lawyers defend themselves against Taylor Swift blackmail: “Clearly and demonstrably wrong”

A lawyer of Blake Lively defends himself against a claim by Justin Baldoni's lawyer Bryan Freedman that a member of the Live Rights Team tried to blackmail Taylor Swift to publish support for the “simple favor”.

According to Freedman's letter, which was submitted to the court on Wednesday and judge Lewis J. Liman:

Freedman's accusation must be checked independently that it is based exclusively on information from an unnamed “source that is very likely reliable information”. In Freedman's submission, no further sources were raised to support the claim.
