Ep. 63: Why MGM Sued Las Vegas Mass Shooting Victims

Published: July 21, 2018, 4 a.m.

Our main story this week is an unusual lawsuit filed by MGM Resorts against the victims of last year\u2019s mass shooting in Las Vegas -- and the public relations nightmare that followed. We\u2019ll also break down a jury\u2019s billion-dollar verdict against Johnson & Johnson over talcum powder; a judge\u2019s rejection of a labor law settlement for McDonald\u2019s; and a bizarre freedom of the press story that saw a judge deleting portions of the Los Angeles Times.\n\nWe\u2019re also asking for your help. Go to the ABA Journal\u2019s website at http://www.abajournal.com/blawgs/web100/ and nominate us to appear on their annual Web 100 Amici list that compiles the best of the legal web, including podcasts like Pro Say.
