I hear that Steve McPherson, who resigned as ABC Entertainment Group president this week, has asked pit bull litigator Marty Singer to specifically target The Hollywood Reporter. If you haven’t noticed, the front page of THR is increasingly resembling TMZ as a Hollywood scandal sheet now that former US magazine editor Janice Min has taken over. Today, Singer issued this statement; “Steve McPherson is not going to sit back idly regarding the false & defamatory stories fueled by unknown and anonymous sources that are now appearing in the media since his resignation from ABC. He has retained Martin Singer and Lavely & Singer to deal with these defamatory stories.”

Why are you always referring to lawyers as Pit Bulls? I have a Pit Bull, as do many of my friends, and they are sweet loving dogs. I can’t say that about most lawyers.
stop perpetuating the negative stereotype – it’s not very progressive.
Uh oh, look out. Marty’s gonna send a letter. Not that, please.
wow the reporter is turning into an embarassment
Where there is smoke there is fire. He’s a tool who sucked in his job and could never get laid in high school. His anger was clearly out of his insecurities. Looks like Stevie Boy is going to be suing a ton of people. Good riddance. Rumor has it, that Steve is going to be the new Caveman in the Geico ads. Nice greenlight, ya jerk.
Good for him!
Ha…!! This should be interesting…
That’s right — the angle here is not “McPherson was a bad guy”; it’s “THR is TMZ.” Nothing to see here, move along now.
Little Steven is a stellar example of what happens when one doesn’t get laid in high school and reads “What Makes Sammy Run” on the weekends!
Defensiveness is overdeveloped pride protecting a weakness.
This McPherson doth protest too much.
What took the team at ABC so long to protect their employees?
