Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThis lawyer for Karen McDougal sounds kinda fishy to us as we watch him on Maddow's hour.
She gets no money.
She has to pay AMI if she sells her story.
No lawyer fees.
All kind of inexplicable.

His client just wanted the weight of that contract lifted and she got what she wanted.
Frankly it is not for Rachel to decide what Karen should want.

He did good.

hate missing an opportunity to stick it to the president.

Does McDougal have another lawyer who is secretly working for the other side?

(67,808 posts)5. We thought of that, too.
Something about the lawyer, more than the words, caused us to both see that as a possibility. He seemed a little too strident, maybe.

His lient got her demands satisfied. The fact that a different settlement would make others happy is not relevant
