How a Taylor Swift faux pas led to the upending of Bruce Lehrmann's defamation case's final days

IMO this is a prime example of why the media need to shut their damn mouths until a court case is finalised.

Report the crime, report the outcome.

All the shit in the middle does nothing but bias the case and cause mistrials and shit.

Just shut your face ffs.

I guess the media is still winning - they get to keep milking this thing for a lot longer and sow even more division. Yay!

Lehrmann is soooooo from fucking guilty and such a fucking creep.

I mean its visible from a mile off.

I don’t think anyone can reasonably argue that he is innocent anymore, unless they have some killer evidence. Alot was done by the media to tear up Higgins’ reputation finally it’s his ⸻very deserving⸻ turn

Working the name “Taylor Swift” into any news article is the ultimate 2024 click bait.

It must suck for her PR people. They have to read articles about all sorts of unrelated matters to make sure they aren’t actually about Taylor Swift.

I hadn’t clicked the article yet. I was about to, until I read your comment. Now I don’t want to dignify the clickbait with a click.

But I am still curious: how exactly have they tied Swift into this?

@Zagorath Police commissioner uses clunky TS quote. Needs new PR advisor. New hire is ex-7, and Auerbach's nemisis. It's not clear why that has anything to do with Auerbach's testimony or why he decided to speak up.
