Also, they don't want their employees (former or otherwise) giving up sources, revealing inner workings, or reversing the narrative that a source is trying to sell because TMZ will be less likely to receive "tips" from celebs who aren't sure if their photos or video are going to get reverse Uno'd on them later.

They had lawyers in the courtroom which this video doesn't show (this clip starts RIGHT when their lawyers stopped talking to the judge, IIRC), and they were trying to intervene in the case (on behalf of the defense/Amber) and one lawyer even asked if he could reserve the right to object (only parties to the case can object, like the lawyers, or even Depp himself -- Johnny could even object, but they wanted this right), that the judge rightly denied.

Any extra involvement by the judge is ammunition for filing an appeal. So far, AH’s lawyers have only been able to complain about what evidence was permitted prior to the start of the trial, and the 1 week break. They haven’t complained much about the judge’s behavior during trial as the judge gave a lot of leeway to Elaine (with her arguing against Camille’s successful objections in front of the jury instead of approaching the bench, not controlling her own witnesses, arguing that she didn’t have any new evidence to waste everyone’s time, objecting with made up categories, not using the microphone properly, and trying to ram through the same questions to AH despite losing to Camille’s objections).

I'm pretty sure they got it, but in any case, Depp's team will make all the connections when they make closing arguments. They can't say things like that during testimony, which is about bringing facts to the table. But they can use logic to draw conclusions later when they close.

What a noble TMZ employee! Seriously have so much respect for this guy

[@socialsanctuary7530]

Just like Kate Moss, AH said TMZ THREE TIMES, and they showed up too. This guy is great because, he names no names at TMZ, he no longer works at TMZ so they cant be seen to be directly involved, and it clears TMZ of being accused of receiving the story and misrepresenting it. This guy is Gold.

Sorry, can you please explain to me what AH asked to this man to do with the video of JD and the cabinet??

[@kristinmarie862]

@@virginiaiacoponi8311 He worked for TMZ. While he couldn't testify that it was AH who sent the video he is suggesting she sent it to TMZ so they would publish it and make Johnny look bad. Make him look like an abuser because he was slamming cabinets.

[@SillyRamen]

@@virginiaiacoponi8311 Like the other person said, while he can't directly say it was Amber who sent the video, he indirectly implied it must have been. "How long does it take to get copyrights from an original source?" "About 15min". "How long did it take to publish the video?" "About 15min". So he basically said the video had to have been sent by the original copyright holder to be posted so quickly. And the original copyright owner is undeniably Amber since she took the video herself. And he didn't know that it was Amber who took the video because his version that was published was edited before he received it to cut out Amber setting up the camera and turning it off. This directly shows that Amber was trying to publish information that would harm Johnny's reputation which means she had deliberate intent to harm his reputation. That alone should prove that Johnny has grounds to sue Amber for defamation. His testimony also shows that she intended on paparazzi to be at the court house as she was getting a restraining order. Only she and her lawyers knew she'd be there, but paparazzi received a tip she would be there. And they had a backdoor intended for celebrities to have privacy while coming and going, but she walked out the front door. All this points that she intended on paparazzi to be there and meant to be seen with the "bruises" on her face.

[@amandanunyabusiness5027]

Because anything coming from an email is hearsay. If you're a witness you can only talk about What you personally witnessed, you can't talk about anything you've read or heard..

[@enzilkarbektas7375]

First of all i'm sorry for my little english but you can understand i quess ::) i'm not sure but as far as i know. "Reading e-mail from Heard direct e-mail is not a heresy" Because it's her case. But if he get the e-mail from another source (in this case those another source's not Depp not Heard) and he read the e-mail it's definitly heresy. And i thing the defencive lawyer she think "He's reading the e-mail come from another source. Because Heard testimony was "She didin't send the video she suprised to see video" So the lawyer was try to make complex to everybody try to tink that e-mail not coming from Heard
