Hogan was retired when he sued Gawker. Having Musk pay attorney fees to
make a right wing point would mean a long long civil litigation process
that would make Carano unemployable to mainstream studios. Who would hire
an actor who sues the studio for a dispute?

I think Musk is trying to help Carano like Peter Thiel helped Hulk Hogan in
his lawsuit against Gawker. Even if she doesn't prevail she can make it as

2024-02-07 Thread Kevin M.
Here’s the thoughts Iger could have: Based on the expert scientists and
doctors, Carano was advocating behavior which would have led to even more
Covid related illnesses and deaths than we were already facing at the time.
She posed a danger to herself and others, and it was decided Disney could
not risk her endangering herself or others during the production of one of
their top revenue generators. It was a sound medical and financial
decision.

Just a coincidence but Carano's most vocal supporter from The Mandalorian
cast during her dispute, Carl Weathers, just died.
It seems like the statute of limitations would have tolled but she got
fired after the second season aired.
Her IMDb page lists zero credits for 2023.
