Michael Avenatti, Stormy Daniels’ spotlight-loving lawyer, has become increasingly hostile to unflattering articles recently, calling a journalist with the Hollywood Reporter an “asshole” who interviewed lawyers jealous of him to write an article with an agenda.
When Avenatti caught wind of Hollywood Reporter staffer Eriq Gardner’s upcoming column that included a tally of Avenatti’s on-air appearances, he went to Gardner’s editor to air his concerns, per the Hollywood Reporter.
Gardner reportedly sent him a list of questions for the article, which Avenatti took as a sign that the article would be less than glowing. This sparked his angry exchange with Gardner, shortly before a separate incident when he threatened to sue the Daily Caller for defamation early this week.
While enjoying his antics and the effect they are having on Spanky and his mob, I hope he doesn’t let his new-found celebrity go too much to his head. He’s getting close to tipping things in the wrong direction.
Go on vacation, buddy, or meditate or something. Don’t blow it because your britches got too big.
Hey Michael, we love you for poking Trump & Cohen but, really, we don’t need to see you every single day.
Also, I have no doubt you’ll be involved in some future case that infuriates us rather than delights.
I thought he was too poised and confident to get rattled that way. Tsk tsk. Clear your head and don’t mess up before the game’s over.
You can’t be thin skinned if you want to stay in the limelight Michael. Calm down.
You had to know that you were putting a huge target on yourself. Focus on your case. You win that, and people will forget your warts. Make a big deal about unflattering articles, and you give them oxygen.
