On Monday, conservative media platform TheBlaze and the company's founder, Glenn Beck, filed a counter lawsuit against conservative firebrand Tomi Lahren, alleging the 24-year-old "was divisive and created conflicts with other media personalities." 

Lahren's behavior while representing TheBlaze was said to have "embarrassed" other employees, the suit further alleges. 

"Lahren was divisive and created conflicts with other media personalities at TheBlaze," the suit claims. "Lahren’s treatment of the floor crew was inappropriate and unprofessional, constantly complaining about everything including but not limited to lighting, room temperature, editing, shooting, directing, etc."

As noted by The Daily Caller, the countersuit seeks to bar Lahren from "'making any public appearances without TheBlaze’s prior approval,' from publicly commenting about TheBlaze and from 'disparaging, criticizing, ridiculing, or making any negative comments about TheBlaze, Beck, or any of its or his employees or family members, or anyone else known by Lahren to be a friend or other associate of Beck.'"

Is this what this what people mean when they say White genocide?

This is ridiculous. In a good way.

The only thing embarrassing here are how both sides of this lawsuit are acting like whiny little childish brats.

Can't say I feel sorry for her, let it all burn down.

Though I suppose at the end of the day they'll find another young blonde female to spout their nonsense, and this time they will be sure to make her stay on brand.

Good..everybody go broke..

Yeah her big thing is that she calls everyone "snowflakes."

 

[Slayven]

Only way this could be more amusing is if Bill Mahr was involved with them in a 3 way standoff

Yeah her big thing is that she calls everyone "snowflakes."

 

[Acorn]

Yeah her big thing is that she calls everyone "snowflakes."

Didn't she start that shit too? Or did she just co opt it from another shitty person?

Nah, she made it more popular.

 

[Dude Abides]

What are they actually suing for? Some type of defamation? Being an annoying diva isn't unlawful.

 

[Frozenprince]

Did this even happen? I feel like it was announced then radio silence.

Tomi is suing because of non compete and they took her Facebook away from her, Glenn is probably suing because that is what lawyers told him to do

 

[Autumn Wind]

Surprisingly she really didn't say much when she was on Bill Maher. She actually was kind of oddly quiet and respectful. I never really watched her show. Beck's show is more like a "morning zoo" type of program with Pat, Stu, and Jeffy.

 

[NYR]

Watch her replace Bill O'Reilly.

Looks like a bunch of corny skits or something, don't really want to dig much deeper than taht

Beck came from a morning zoo radio background, he sucked at it and became a pundit. Says a lot about Fox's audience

What about Laura Ingraham?

She was out of her league during that show.

Once again, #TeamNobody.

Yo, I think that guy and me got the same t-shirt! (wearing it right now)

 

[Theslammer]

Among other things, they say that her treatment of the floor crew on her show was “inappropriate and unprofessional,” as she was “constantly complaining about everything including but not limited to lighting, room temperature, editing, shooting, directing, etc.”

 

[CaviarMeths]

While I find it very easy to believe that Tomi is as shitty of a person off camera as on, this countersuit reads like it had to restrain itself from using the word "uppity."

 

[ClosingADoor]

If unprofessional behavior is now cause for a lawsuit, we could start suing half the planet.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

the countersuit seeks to bar Lahren from "'making any public appearances without TheBlaze’s prior approval,'

That sounds really excessive.

Oh please let the Blaze win!

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Oh please let the Blaze win!

Is that really a precedent that you want set?

 

[Mathieran]

Sounds like this pro libertarian company is limiting her first amendment rights. Sad!

 

[cameron]

She's young and obnoxious. She'll bounce back.

lol, basically.

 

[theechrisfox]

She and her pals seem a bit evaporated.

 

[Pandy]

Good..everybody go broke..

Exactly what I hoped for when she was fired. Fingers crossed.

 

[sazzy]

flash in the pan

 

[GoldenEye 007]

That sounds really excessive.

NBC basically did that to Conan during that fiasco. Seems pretty standard in situations like these.

 

[ShyMel]

Good..everybody go broke..

That sounds like the best possible outcome here. Let them go broke fighting among themselves.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

NBC basically did that to Conan during that fiasco. Seems pretty standard in situations like these.

Didn't they reach an agreement on his departure? Wasn't that part something he agreed to in exchange for monetary compensation?

Edit:

In all, O'Brien received a $45 million deal to leave NBC.[174] O'Brien received pay for the remaining two years of his contract (amounting to $33 million), with additional payments to Jeff Ross, Andy Richter and bandleader Max Weinberg.[175] The severance pay for his staff was above standard GE levels (amounting in all to $12 million), which O'Brien had stressed.[176] O'Brien paid around 50 stagehands and various crew members at least six weeks severance pay out of his own pocket, as NBC gave those particular staffers nothing in the settlement.[177] The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees has said that they were "very happy" with how O'Brien treated his employees during the conflict.[177] The contract contained a clause prohibiting O'Brien from making negative remarks about NBC for a certain amount of time;[176][178] it did not, however, contain the previously rumored "mitigation clause", in which NBC would be able to keep some of the severance pay after O'Brien finds a new program.[176] It stipulated that he may return to television on another network no earlier than September 1, 2010.[174][176]

I had no idea not liking someone was cause for a law suit. Sounds like someone isn't taking the advice of their attorneys.

 

[C.Mongler]

Let them eat cake!

 

[Wolfgunblood Garopa]

That is a pathetic countersuit. She complained about the room temperature...

 

[PixelatedBookake]

Yay

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Watch her replace Bill O'Reilly.

From everything I've heard Fox is waiting on her Blaze contract to end (which it might after this) before hiring her.

 

[Slayven]

They are pathetic people

 

[Cesare Borgia]

Not surprising she's a piece of shit who treats people "beneath her" poorly. You can see it in her face and hear it in her voice. Such traits usually don't matter as you climb up the entertainment ladder but she committed the cardinal sin of being pro choice in a company run by apocalyptic religious fanatics. Should have kept that to yourself champ. I doubt Bill O'Reilly and a host of other conservative commentators give a shit about abortion either, but they won't admit it.

 

[Incendiary]

Came for this, was not disappointed.

Let all of these people get embroiled in suits and scandals. Please.

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

Didn't she start that shit too? Or did she just co opt it from another shitty person?

It comes from that line in Fight Club about "you are not a unique and special snowflake" which in turn draws on various self-help literature.

[mckmas8808]

Oh please let the Blaze win!

I don't know about all that. No reason to root for the corporation here.

 

[Koomaster]

Thought this was about the musical duo The Blaze and was wondering what the hell they had to do with Glenn Beck. xD
