If you’re searching for an entertainment lawsuit that checks all the boxes—a legitimate business problem, a thorny law school exam hypo, and a ready-made TMZ headline—look no further than Leah McSweeney v. NBCUniversal. As I’ve previously reported, the former Real Housewives of New York City star is suing Bravo’s parent company over alleged mistreatment when she was a castmember during seasons 12 and 13. The show “weaponized” her alcoholism, she wrote, and exploited her relapse for a storyline. The case has already delivered one ruling for the books: Back in March, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman held that Bravo’s casting choices—yes, even an alleged preference for heavy drinkers—are protected by the First Amendment.
