"She is seeking legal representation"...hehe...their stupidity is going to cost them. Escurumbele Mar 2024 #46

She must be happy it's not a "right to work" state ToxMarz Mar 2024 #52

Bless her heart... Blue Idaho Mar 2024 #73

Completely irrelevant if she had a contract. N/t Ms. Toad Mar 2024 #108

To be fair, she does have a contract. intheflow Mar 2024 #61

True enough. thucythucy Mar 2024 #63

the "higher ups" did put thought into it. There are MAGAts infesting everywhere LiberalLovinLug Mar 2024 #79

Did you mean NBC? Sky Jewels Mar 2024 #85

Yes thanks for noticing. Changed. LiberalLovinLug Mar 2024 #91

It depends on the conditions of the contract nuxvomica Mar 2024 #69

The contract wasn't "at will"? Ponietz Mar 2024 #81

I don't. intheflow Mar 2024 #99

Are you kidding? I'd sue too. jimfields33 Mar 2024 #87

Let her sue MorbidButterflyTat Mar 2024 #3

I agree..let her sue but I'm going to bet agingdem Mar 2024 #28

Maybe, but the more NBC can prove she had given false info, the less the payout NBC might have to suffer. ancianita Mar 2024 #32

Absolutely they should fire those responsible for hiring her. LiberalFighter Mar 2024 #40

I want NBC to suffer...NBC didn't learn agingdem Mar 2024 #48

Yes. It didn't learn because at core it's corporate, always wanting to expand its market. ancianita Mar 2024 #77

re: "she was in a federal indictment as Co-conspirator 2" thesquanderer Mar 2024 #60

Here's hoping, right? ancianita Mar 2024 #78

Don't know what she's whining about; she'll probably get a fat buyout check. bluesbassman Mar 2024 #7

What case would she have? Does anyone have a right to be a paid contributor to NBC MadameButterfly Mar 2024 #10

I'm not sure the case would argue any "right to be a paid contributor" TheProle Mar 2024 #17

I guess we have to make it cost them more MadameButterfly Mar 2024 #20

There's almost certainly a contract, so they'll have to buy it from her. Ocelot II Mar 2024 #18

Indded ProfessorGAC Mar 2024 #65

Depends on the wording of her contract. spooky3 Mar 2024 #19

Why is everyone saying they are out of touch johnnyfins Mar 2024 #49

She has a slam dunk breach of contract case. rsdsharp Mar 2024 #23

Would the contract say time of day or location? LiberalFighter Mar 2024 #47

I assume the contract defines her roll as a "contributor." rsdsharp Mar 2024 #71

It may depend what is any contract that may have been signed. avebury Mar 2024 #101

I attribute this change of heart angrychair Mar 2024 #58

If shes just a contributor, probably not a lot she can sue for. getagrip_already Mar 2024 #13

Depends. There might have been a contract under which she was to be paid Ocelot II Mar 2024 #22

True, but at $300k/year, it wont be too painful getagrip_already Mar 2024 #26

This is a direct result, and the main intent of Rachel's leading story last night MadameButterfly Mar 2024 #14
