Publicist Stephanie Jones says she learned a former employee had been involved in alleged smear campaign
Justin Baldoni's former publicist, Stephanie Jones, is suing him for breach of contract, alleging her dismissal was linked to her discovery of a smear campaign against Blake Lively orchestrated by Baldoni and his associates. The central conceptual idea is that Baldoni, fearing Lively would expose sexual harassment allegations, allegedly conspired with others to discredit and suppress her, leading to a smear campaign. Jones claims her former employee, Jennifer Abel, was involved in this campaign, which she uncovered through text messages and emails on a company phone.
