Depp had sued Heard for $50 million in damages. In a $100 million counterclaim, Heard accused Depp of damaging her reputation by dubbing her a liar following her allegations of sexual violence against him....."

Good comparison. And in place of NIFONG (blast from the past) we have the ACLU and WAPO.

Good outcome, for those who do not always “believe all women”.

No empathy from me and I could care less about anyone losing a job in Hollywood.

They had no meaningful jobs to begin with. They act play other people for a month or two then do noting for a few years and make millions.

If someone ever said anything about me that caused me to lose my job and be unemployable that would be between me and the accuser not the the entire world and endless news coverage.

I’m sure there are “real” people that have gone through something like that but they don’t get the 24/7 news coverage and they don’t go home to the million dollar mansions sulk.

I’m past all the cultural crap. Guy was abused by a girl and semi-won for a change. Who picked the girl?

It’s the abused wife staying with the abusing husband, switched around yet the stay together in a self destructive relationship then wonder why it ends the way it does and you want me to look at the cultural ramifications?

There are none and it will forgotten within a week or two depending on the next crap that comes along the news thinks you should be concerned about.

“we can talk about trivial crap” the whole point of my post is it is trivial crap so we agree on that.

Johnny Depp is a man. He has children by a previous marriage. Amber Heard spewed lies about him, accusing him of physical abuse and sexual abuse. He has taken her to court to clear his name and to not allow a lying gold digger to spew lies in the media impugning men. I applaud him for the courage to do this even though he knew his past drug and alcohol abuse would be aired. With this lying harridan out of his life, perhaps he will stay sober now.

He’s best known for “Rum Diary”?

What the duce, John are you talking about.   I can name more Johnny Depp films that just about any other actor.   Scissor hand, Fear and loathing, All of the pirate films, Tonto, The weird one with the pencil thin mustache. the murderous barber, but give me a minute and I'll think of more.

Now you tell me what “Rum Diary” is referring to?   I have never heard of “Rum Diary”.

What a stupid, communistic headline. An overall win for Depp. Glad to see it. She is a lying drama queen.

Depp netted $8,350,000. Punitive damages were by law reduced from 5,000,000 to 350,000.


10,000,000 awarded to Depp for damages
..+ 350,000 for punitive damages
._________
10,350,000
- 2,000,000 to Heard
._________
= 8,350,000

After he pays the lawyers, he should be able to afford the flight and an Uber back home.
