Of course there are many attorneys who are honorable. My opinion is that the majority of lawsuits such as these are about money, and nothing else.
And again, I must point out that huge corporations have the best attorneys money can buy. I cannot believe that there would be a breach of contract, because no atty at that level of practice would be so negligent as to leave their client at the mercy of a single person.
Yes, I do most certainly believe this is a frivolous lawsuit.
In other words, they put her on TV, said "look at this poor ugly woman, we're going to help her" and then did nothing.
I doubt this woman signed a contract allowing ABC to promote her to America as an ugly duckling in exchange for absolutely nothing. Had ABC backed out earlier, it's a different story. But since they used her image and publicly defamed her, I say she's due something.
