Royles defamation and false light action to the 18 statements she listed in her second

INTRODUCTION
For nearly three months Plaintiff public personality in Baltimore sports talk radio has
failed to comply with written discovery served May 2011 on the basic issues of her
defamation and false light portrayal claims Despite the Courts narrowing of this case in
granting Defendants partial motion to dismiss Plaintiffs answers to basic discovery requests
are evasive and incomplete under Rule 2-432 She repeatedly has refused to provide
definitive list as requested of the statements she claims defamed or cast her in false light
Indeed her responses have become murkier and more evasive with each communication between
counsel and their current positionif there are additional actionable statements will
glean this in the Plaintiffs deposition See July 18 2011 Letter final paragraph attached
as Exhibit 1is utterly untenable Obviously as with any other litigation the Defendants are
entitled through written discovery and before her deposition to notice of the precise wrongs the
Plaintiff alleges
In addition despite centering her claims around the allegation that Defendants intimated
that is involved in personal sexual and/or inappropriate relationships with professional
athletes Complaint 21b she flatly refuses to furnish information about any relationship
with an athlete other than one Baltimore Oriole and one New York Yankee Further she has
claimed privilege on her communications with athletes under the guise of Marylands reporters
shield law yet she has failed to provide privilege log of any sort Moreover Plaintiff refuses to
produce what she arbitrarily has deemed her personal Facebook account with which she
On June 2001 the Honorable Evelyn Omega Cannon dismissed Counts II and IV which sounded in invasion of
privacy by publication of private facts and intentional infliction of emotional distress with prejudice The only
claims remaining are for defamation Count and false light invasion of privacy Count III
In Maryland claim for false light may not stand unless the claim also meets the standard for defamation
Crowley Pox Broad Co 851 Supp 700 704 Md 1994 As in defamation claim false light claim can
only be maintained where plaintiff asserts provably false statement of fact Bagwell Peninsula Regional Med
CIr 106 Md App 470 514 665 A.2d 297 318 1995
maintains contact with nearly 1000 friends including number of professional athletes
Finally Ms Royle refuses to identify individuals denominated in her responses as colleagues
members of the public professional athletes and fans all of whom she claims have
information relevant to this lawsuit.3
As Plaintiff has not complied with her obligations under Maryland law and WNST has
not received the notice to which it is entitled this Court should limit her claims to the 18
statements in her latest discovery response require that she furnish all additional information
sought in this motion within 10 days order her to provide access to her entire Facebook
accounts and order payment of costs and reasonable attorneys fees
Procedural Background Leading up to this Motion
Plaintiff filed four-count Complaint on March 10 2011 claiming defamation false
light invasion of privacy by publication of private facts and intentional infliction of emotional
distress Dkt No The entire Complaint arose of words allegedly written or spoken by the
Defendants The Complaint generally alluded to 12 written or oral statements While
characterizing them however the Complaint did not set forth the words dates format or
audience for any statement
On May 2011 Defendants moved to dismiss the private facts and emotional distress
claims and answered the defamation and false light claims At the same time WNST served
written discovery seeking inter alia specific list of the statements details about the timing and
circumstances under which each allegedly was made and an explanation of why each was
Defendants also requested Plaintiffs complete Twitter history and all of her medical records Plaintiffs counsel in
his July 18 2011 letter Ex.l represented that they are being promptly obtained and will be provided to the
Defendants upon receipt On that basis the Defendants will not at this time move to compel Plaintiffs production of
those items Defendants reserve the right to supplement this Motion should the Plaintiff fail to timely provide the
documents
allegedly false This discovery obviously is necessary to furnish the Defendants with notice and
to enable them to prepare their defense
At June hearing Judge Cannon granted Defendants motion dismissing the private
facts and emotional distress counts with prejudice and without leave to amend See June 22
2011 Order attached as Exhibit During that hearing Judge Cannon explicitly stated that Ms
Royle had not plead facts sufficient to state claims under either of those torts copy of the
transcript of the June 2011 hearing is attached as Exhibit The ruling left Plaintiff with just
two causes of action defamation and false light portrayal
Although Judge Cannon cut Plaintiffs lawsuit in half when Plaintiff first responded to
the written discovery on June and she attached an Exhibit to her interrogatory responses
that listed 26 separate statements which she alleged to be false and defamatory See Ms Royles
Initial Responses to WNSTs Interrogatories attached as Exhibit number of these
statements however had no factual content at all and appear related to the emotional distress
claim that the Court dismissed Moreover number of statements were not even attributed to
the Defendants at all See ii
On June pursuant to Rule 2-432 Defendants sent Ms Royle letter outlining these
deficiencies copy of Defendants June letter is attached as Exhibit Counsel for the parties
met by telephone on June 15 and Defendants counsel reiterated that Plaintiff needed to specify
which statements allegedly made by the Defendants that she claims are false and defamatory or
portrayed her in false light Following that call Plaintiffagain instead of conforming her
claim to the causes of action she has pleadedexpanded it by serving notice of more than 50
independent statements many of which again contained no facts and allegedly were made by
people other than the Defendants See Exhibit to Plaintiffs Responses to WNSTs
Interrogatories attached as Exhibit
On June 27 2011 Defendants wrote two letters to Plaintiffs counsel One noted her
continuing failure to furnish required discovery responses copy of this letter is attached as
Exhibit The other provided notice that by continuing to mushroom the number of allegedly
actionable statements Plaintiff has brought herself within the prohibitions of Rule 1-341 as she
is forcing Defendants to litigate frivolous claims by refusing to reasonably conform to the
contours of her defamation and false light counts copy of this letter is attached as Exhibit
In response Ms Royle again supplemented her interrogatory responses The text of her
response to Interrogatory No listed 18 allegedly false statements However she attached
another Exhibit listing 33 separate statements copy of Ms Royles Supplemental
Interrogatory Responses and her Supplemental Exhibit are attached as Exhibit In July 15
telephone conference Defendants counsel sought to clarify that the 18 statements in the text of
the interrogatory responses constituted all statements that the Plaintiff has placed at issue in the
lawsuit Plaintiffs counsel seemingly provided that reassurance However following written
confirmation by Defendants counsel Exhibit 10 Plaintiffs counsel instead responded by letter
Exhibit stating that the Plaintiff would not provide the complete list of her statements until her
deposition there are additional actionable statements will glean this in
Plaintiffs deposition Id emphasis supplied
Thus as to the alleged statements around which this entire lawsuit is framed Defendants
have asked on at least five separate occasions for an appropriately narrowed list and Plaintiff
repeatedly has expanded contracted and expanded her response The Courts intervention
therefore is unfortunately necessary to assist the parties in defining the contours of Plaintiffs
claim As to the remaining discovery issues the parties are at impasse despite Defendants
efforts to resolve them without inconvenience to the Court
ARGUMENT
Ms Royle Has Failed to Meet Her Discovery Obligations under Rules 2-432 by
Responding to WNSTs Discovery in an Evasive or Incomplete Manner
Under Rule 2-43 court may compel production of discovery if the information sought
is discoverable and the partys responses are evasive or incomplete which under the rule
constitutes failure to provide discovery Md Rule 2-432 Marylands discovery rules are
broad and comprehensive in scope Baltimore Transit Co Mezzanotti 227 Md 13
1961 and promote liberal disclosures in the interest of advancing the sound and expeditious
administration of justice Id E.I du Pont de Nemours Co Forma-Pack Inc 351 Md
396 405 1998 Among the fundamental and principal objectives of the rules is to eliminate
as far as possible the necessity of any party to litigation going to trial in confused or muddled
state of mind concerning the facts that gave rise to the litigation Mezzanotti 227 Md at 13
Defendants here have repeatedly sought to clarify confused or muddled discovery responses to
clarify the facts that gave rise to the litigation The responses provided however continue to
obfuscate and magnify the basic issues
The Court Should Order That Ms Royles Defamation and False Light
Claims are Limited to the 18 Statements Provided in the Latest
Supplemental Discovery Response and Should Award Costs
Following service of the Complaint vaguely describing 12 allegedly injurious statements
WNST issued the following simple interrogatory asking Plaintiff to list each and every
statement made by WNST she alleges was false and the reasons for her assertion of falsity
INTERROGATORY NO.4 For each statement identified your answer to
Interrogatory No.3 explain the reason that you claim it was false when madeidentify each and every fact on which you base your contention identify all
persons known to you who have knowledge of such facts and for each person
identified state the substance of that persons knowledge
Due to the extreme length of Ms Royles many responses to this
interrogatory please see Ms Royles responses in Exhibits and which are
incorporated by reference hereto
Ms Royle answered this question for the first time shortly after Judge Cannon dismissed
half of her lawsuit As noted and throughout the successive responses outlined in this motion
Plaintiff appeared to have limited her remaining defamation and false light claims to universe
of approximately 18 statements recited in her Supplemental Response to Interrogatory No but
she also included document labeled Supplemental Exhibit See Ex That document
contains alleged statements that have no possible relevance to either remaining tort claim such
as
Glenn Clark blogs that Ms Royles description of an Orioles game was wrong He later
analogizes her to character on the Jersey Shore because she is disaster He states that
he doesnt want her to do her job better Ex Supp Exhibit at 000001
Glenn Clark just ripped Royle on the air that morning and are now calling
Ms Royle Jen Midol Ex Supp Exhibit at 000002
Drew Forrester blogs that fans wont get to meet Jen Royle This appears to be joke
that she thinks of herself as star Ex Supp Exhibit at 000006
Drew Forrester tweets that Jen Royle is just tourist in Baltimore Ex Supp Exhibit
at 000009
Despite initial assurances that Plaintiff had confined herself to the 18 statements in her
the text of her interrogatory response Plaintiffs counsel now takes the position that the Plaintiff
will not disclose her entire factual basis until her deposition is taken there are additional
actionable statements you will glean this in Royles deposition See Ex To leave
the basic facts of her claim confused and muddled until her deposition violates Plaintiffs
discovery obligations under Rule 2-421 Moreover this conduct is additionally sanctionable
under Rule 1-341 which states
In any civil action if the court finds that the conduct of any party in maintaining
or defending any proceeding was in bad faith or without substantial justification
the court may require the offending party or the attorney advising the conduct or
both of them to pay to the adverse party the costs of the proceeding and the
reasonable expenses including reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the adverse
party in opposing it
Rule 1-341 can be an effective tool for the deterrence of unnecessary or abusive
litigation and the Court may invoke it to award party costs including reasonable attorneys
fees if it finds the opposing party has been maintaining or defending any proceeding in bad
faith or without substantial justification Zdravkovich Bell Atlantic-Tricon Leasing 323 Md
200 592 A.2d 498 503 1991 see also Seney Seney 97 Md App 544 631 A.2d 139 144
1993 the Rules purpose is to deter unnecessary and abusive litigation. Under the Rule
bad faith exists when party litigates solely with the intent to cause harassment or
unreasonable delay Barnes Rosenthal Toyota Inc 126 Md App 97 727 A.2d 431 435
1999 And lack of substantial justification exists when litigants position is not fairly
debatable and not within the realm of legitimate advocacy Id Conduct lacks substantial
justification when there is no basis in law and/or in fact to support the plaintiffs claim against the
defendants who seek fees and costs Johnson Baker 84 Md App 521 581 A.2d 48 52
1990
Here Plaintiff and her counsel skirted all debateand the law of this caseby pressing
claims for numerous statements that clearly are neither defamatory nor cast her in false light
Then just when it appeared the Plaintiff was willing to scale her lawsuit back to reasonable
proportions counsel advised that her claims will remain undefined until her deposition when
Defendants can glean her intent Just as breach of contract defendant is entitled to know
what contract he allegedly breached and an insurance company is entitled to know what
personal injury it is defending defamation defendant like WNST is entitled to know with
specificity the allegedly actionable words it will be called on to defend WNST therefore asked
the Court to enter an order under Rules 2-432 and 1-34 limiting Plaintiffs claims to the 18
statements listed in her supplemental response to Interrogatory No WNST further requests an
award of its costs including reasonable attorneys fee in connection with this request
Ms Royle Must Fully Answer Discovery Relevant to Her Allegation that
WNST Made Statements that is involved in personal sexual and/or
inappropriate relationships with professional athletes Complaint
21b
WNST is entitled to discovery related to the absolute defense of truth
Ms Royles Complaint includes the sweeping allegation that Defendants made statements
that Royle is involved in personal sexual and/or inappropriate relationships with
professional athletes Complaint 21b Accordingly WNST issued requests to Ms Royle
to better understand the nature of her claim and to discover facts relevant to its defense
INTERROGATORY NO 21 Identify all former or current professional
athletes with whom you have ever been inclined in personal relationship
sexual relationship and/or inappropriate relationship including but not
limited to any current or former player or member of the coaching staff or
management in Major League Baseball the National Football League the
National Basketball Association the National Hockey League Major League
Soccer the Arena Football League the PGA Tour the ATP World Tour
NASCAR any minor league affiliate of such leagues or any other minor
professional league i.e AAA baseball and the American Hockey League For
each person identified state their full name address phone number and the dates
and nature of any such relationship
Response Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory as it contains several
interrogatories each involving separate and distinct issues under the guise of single
interrogatory in contravention of the limits imposed by Rule 2-421 of the Maryland
Rules of Civil Procedure The interrogatory seeks information immaterial to the instant
litigation and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible
evidence Further the Interrogatory is overly broad vague and ambiguous The
interrogatory calls for speculation and conjecture as it does not define the phrase
inclined in
Supplemental Response Defendants have made false statements about
relationships with Nick Swisher and Brian Matusz Plaintiff limits her claims and
responses to these athletes Furthermore as the Interrogatory fails to define the phrase
inclined in4 and the Defendants have not supplemented the Interrogatory to define
the phrase Plaintiff continues to object on the grounds that this Interrogatory calls for
speculation and conjecture Without waiving these objections and subject thereto the
Plaintiff has not had any inappropriate and or sexual relationships with either Nick
Swisher or Brian Matusz as those words are defined in Plaintiffs Supplemental Answer
to Interrogatory No 20
INTERROGATORY NO 22 Identify all former or professional athletes
with whom you have ever had intimate romantic or sexual relations of any nature
including but not limited to any current or former player or member of the
coaching staff or management in Major League Baseball the National Football
League the National Basketball Association the National Hockey League Major
League Soccer the Arena Football League the PGA Tour the ATP World Tour
NASCAR any minor league affiliate of such leagues or any other minor
professional league i.e AAA baseball and the American Hockey League For
each person identified state their full name address phone number and the dates
and nature of any such relationship
Response Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory as it contains several
interrogatories each involving separate and distinct issues under the guise of single
interrogatory in contravention of the limits imposed by Rule 2-421 of the Maryland
Rules of Civil Procedure The interrogatory seeks information immaterial to the instant
litigation and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible
evidence Further the Interrogatory is overly broad vague and ambiguous
Supplemental Response See Plaintiffs Supplemental Answer to Interrogatory
No 21
Ms Royles answers are evasive and incomplete as she arbitrarily limits her responses to
New York Yankee Nick Swisher and Baltimore Oriole Brian Matusz refusing to answer the
interrogatories with regard to any other professional athlete Ms Royle cannot escape the basic
allegation of her own Complaintthat she stands wrongly accused of having personal sexual
Ms Royle objects to the typographical error inclined in in Interrogatory No 20 ignoring the obvious intended
meaning apparent in Interrogatory No 21 which indicates inclined in was intended to be involved in MsRoyles objection does not relieve her of her discovery obligations
10
and/or inappropriate relationships with professional athletes.5 Ms Royle cannot pick and
choose among the athletes about whom she will answer these questions
Indeed under Maryland law her relationships with athlete is relevant and
discoverable whatever the nature and whoever they are In Maryland statement is not
considered false unless it would have different effect on the mind of the reader from that
which the pleaded truth would have produced Batson Shfflett 325 Md 684 725 1992
citing Sack Libel Slander and Related Problems 138 1980 footnote omitted Thus any
relationship she has with any athlete is relevant to the truth or falsity of her allegations and to
her reputation in the professional athletic community Because these broad allegations are at
issue Defendants are permitted to discover information relevant to the allegations of her
Complaint and the Plaintiff should be compelled to answer the interrogatories as asked
Ms Royle cannot avoid her discovery obligations by broadly invoking
Marylands Reporters Shield Law and providing no privilege log
Consistent with WNSTs Interrogatory Nos 21 and 22 regarding the nature of Ms
Royles relationships with professional athletes WNST also served number of document
requests intending to discover the universe of athletes with whom Ms Royle had relationship
of any kind See Ms Royles First and Supplemental Responses to WNSTs Requests for
Production attached as Composite Exhibit 11 However Plaintiff broadly asserts the Maryland
Reporters Shield Law Md Code COURTS JUDICIAL PROC 9-112 flatly refusing to produce
single responsive document and failing to provide privilege log Notably while Plaintiff
attempts to limit her responses to Interrogatory Nos 21 and 22 to Mr Swisher and Mr Matusz
she provides no communications between her and either of these gentlemen For the sake of
At the appropriate juncture Defendants will establish that they made no such statement
Ill
brevity WNST includes the requests at issue followed by Ms Royles generic boilerplate
objection which she included in the exact same form responding to each request at issue
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO All documents and communications with
any current or former professional athlete from 2000 to the present For the
purposes of this question professional athlete includes but is not limited to any
current or former player in Major League Baseball the National Football League
the National Basketball Association the National Hockey League Major League
Soccer the Arena Football League the PGA Tour the ATP World Tour
NASCAR any minor league affiliate of such leagues or any other minor
professional league i.e AAA baseball and the American Hockey LeagueDOCUMENT REQUEST NO 10 All documents and communications with
any current or former player member of the coaching staff or management in
Major League Baseball from 2000 to the present
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO 11 All documents and communications with
any current or former player member of the coaching staff or management in the
New York Yankees baseball organization from 2000 to the present
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO 12 All documents and communications with
any current or former player member of the coaching staff or management in the
New York Mets baseball organization from 2000 to the present
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO 13 All documents and communications with
any current or former player member of the coaching staff or management in the
Baltimore Orioles baseball organization from 2000 to the present
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO 14 All documents and communications with
any current or former player member of the coaching staff or management in the
Baltimore Ravens football organization from 2010 to the present
Response Plaintiff objects to the foregoing Request as it is overly broad unduly
burdensome harassing vague and or ambiguous as it requires Plaintiff to produce
voluminous documents that are unrelated to the allegations of the Complaint The
Request as worded is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible
evidence Further the Plaintiff objects to the extent this Request seeks disclosure of
information which is protected by the First Amendment of the United State Constitution
and the Maryland Shield Law See Md Code Ann Courts Judicial Proc 9-1 12
Tofani State 297 Md 165465 A.2d 413 1983 Plaintiff objects to the extent this
Request seeks documents or information already in the custody or control of the
Defendants or which may be obtained by the Defendants more conveniently less
expensively and with less burden than by the Plaintiff
Supplemental Response To the extent non-privileged responsive documents
exist and are in the immediate possession custody or control of the Plaintiff they have
been produced herewith
First despite her supplemental response the Plaintiff has produced communications
12
between her and professional athlete Second despite her assertion of reporte privilege
Plaintiff has refused to provide privilege log of any kind that states the basis for her assertion of
privilege the identities of the individuals with whom she communicated the date of such
communications and the nature of those communications In Maryland the burden of
establishing the existence of privilege rests with the party seeking to assert it El du Pont de
Nemours Co Forma-Paclç Inc 351 Md 396 415 1998 see also Maxima Corp 6933
Arlington Development Ltd Partnership 100 Md.App 441 456 1994 Ms Royles general
assertion of privilege without more fails to comply with the requirement of Rule 2-422 that
party fully state with specificity the grounds for refusal to produce requested document
In considering similarly general assertions of attorney-client privilege the Court of
Special Appeals has held that blanket assertion is generally extremely disfavored and
ordinarily the privilege must be raised as to each record so that the court can rule with
specificity Maximma 100 Md App.at 457 Indeed one court applying Maryland law has held
that partys failure to provide privilege log may constitute forfeiture of any claims of
privilege Victor Stanley Inc Creative Pipe Inc 250 F.R.D 251 267 Md 2008
Maryland courts have not specifically addressed the reporters privilege in responding to
civil written discovery However in assessing the invocation of the reporters privilege in
depositions the Court of Special Appeals has held that such assertions must adhere to the Rules
of Procedure and Discovery Guidelines See Forensic Advisors Inc Matrixx initiatives Inc
170 Md App 520 536-37 2006 In particular Discovery Guideline 5c provides that where
claim of privilege is asserted the party invoking the privilege must identify with specificity the
nature of the privilege together with the type of document the general subject matter
the date of the document and such other information as is sufficient to identify the
13
document for subpoena duces tecum including where appropriate the author addressee and
any other recipient of the document and where not apparent the relationship of the author
addressee and any other recipient to each other Discovery Guideline 5c
In this case Plaintiffs boilerplate assertion of reporters privilege fails to provide this
particularized justification for asserting privilege See Mezu Morgan State University 269
F.R.D 565 577 Md 2010 With no privilege log WNST has been denied the opportunity to
make meaningful challenge concerning information directly relevant to her claims and WNSTs
defenses For these reasons this Court should compel Plaintiff to produce the requested
documents or alternatively to produce privilege log containing the information called for in
Discovery Guideline 5c
Ms Royle Must Provide WNST With Her Complete Facebook Account
WNST requested that Ms Royle provide access to all of her Facebook accounts for
inspection and copying
Instead Plaintiff reinterprets this straightforward request by applying an arbitrary
distinction She produced complete copy of her professional fan page on Facebook but flatly
refuses to provide any information regarding her personal Facebook page See Ex Despite
the fact that her counsel has represented that Plaintiffs personal page has been download9d
DOCUMENT REQUEST NO 33 Produce for inspection and copying at
mutually agreeable place and time complete access to all Facebook.com accounts
within your control
Response Plaintiff objects to this Request as it is overly broad unduly
burdensome and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible
evidence Further the Request seeks information which is not relevant to the allegations
in the Complaint
Supplemental Response To the extent non-privileged responsive documents
are in the immediate possession custody or controL of the Plaintiff they have been
produced herewith
14
that information is being withheld without any cognizable objection Plaintiffs arbitrary
distinction between professional and personal Facebook activities is misplaced brief view
of Ms Royles publicly available personal profile demonstrates that she maintains
friendships on Facebook with professional athletes such as Major League Baseball players
Robinson Cano Nick Swisher and Wil Nieves and National Football League players Ben
Grubbs and Brendon Ayanbadejo current listing of Ms Royles friends on her personal
Facebook profile is attached as Exhibit 12 Thus to the extent that she has used Facebook to
communicate with these athletes and any others who might have privacy settings hiding them
from view as well as photos status updates or other information evidences such relationships
WNST is entitled to discover that information Moreover if Ms Royle has communicated with
any of her colleagues or friends on her personal Facebook page about her work as
journalist or other issues relevant to her lawsuit she has no greater right to protect such
communications because they were made through her personal Facebook page rather than
though any other medium of communication
Additionally Plaintiff alleges that Defendants have damaged her professional and
personal reputation among members of the public and among the professional athletes she
covers have been endangered See Plaintiffs Response to Interrogatory No 10 at Exs and
To this end the communications with and about Plaintiff on Facebook with nearly 1000 of her
friends are highly relevant to her reputation and credibility in the community even if she
deems the site personal Finally the communications Plaintiff makes are all highly relevant to
her frame of mind and thus to the emotional damages she claims Complaint 35 and 55
For all these reasons Ms Royles arbitrary distinction between her personal and
professional Facebook pages is inappropriate This Court should therefore compel Ms Royle
15
to comply with the discovery request and permit WNST an opportunity to inspect and copy what
she deems to be her personal Facebook page or alternatively order Ms Royle to produce in
electronic form all documents she has already obtained from Facebook
Ms Royle Must Identify All Individuals Referenced In Her Discovery
Responses
In number of her discovery responses Plaintiff vaguely refers to numerous individuals
with knowledge of information relevant to the issues raised by her Complaint but fails to
identify them by name Plaintiff also refers to documents and communications with identified
individuals but has refused to produce those documents Plaintiffs responses therefore remain
evasive vague and incomplete
INTERROGATORY NO Identify all communications between you and any
other persons including but not limited to the Defendants relating to the
statements identified in your answer to Interrogatory No For each identify the
date of the communication by whom the communication was authored or made to
whom the communication was addressed all those who received the communication
whether the communication was made orally or in writing the substance of the
communication and any response to the communication
Response Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory as it contains several
interrogatories each involving separate and distinct issues under the guise of single
interrogatory in contravention of the limits imposed by Rule 2-421 of the Maryland
Rules of Civil Procedure The interrogatory as worded is overly broad vague and
ambiguous as well as unduly burdensome as the Interrogatory does not define the term
communications Further Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it seeks
information protected by the attorney-client privilege and the attorney work-product
doctrine Without waiving and subject to said objections Plaintiff prepared
correspondence to the Baltimore Ravens organization on or about August 14 2010
Plaintiff exchanged emails with colleagues and management at MASN and CBS as
well as telephone conversations beginning on approximately January 13 2011
regarding the Defendants conduct As discovery is ongoing Plaintiff reserves the right
to supplement and or amend her response to this Interrogatory
Supplemental Response Without waiving and subject to Plaintiffs original
objections to the extent the correspondence is in the immediate custody possession or
control of the Plaintiff copies have been provided See PRDR 000070-000071
000076-000078 The recipients of the letter to the Raven Public RelationsMedia staff
included to Chad Steele Patrick Gleason and Kevin Byrne Plaintiff exchanged emails
16
with Jim Cuddihy of MASN on or about January 13 2011 regarding the Defendants
conduct Plaintiff emailed Greg Bader of the Baltimore Orioles Organization on or
about 6/11/2011 Greg Bader responded to the email with an email directly to Ms
Royle Plaintiff refers the Defendants to Plaintiffs Original and Supplemental
Responses to Requests for Production of Documents and Exhibit
Here her supplemental response fails to provide documents and supporting information
about the e-mails with colleagues and management at MASN and CBS as well as telephone
conversations. .regarding Defendants conduct Although Ms Royles counsel advised that the
only correspondence with MASN was one e-mail to Jim Cuddihy which has been provided Ms
Royle failed to provide py correspondence or information regarding conversations with her
colleagues at CBS including the names of the individuals with whom she spoke or the
dates and substance of those communications
INTERROGATORY NO 10 Describe in detail any damages you contend to
have suffered to your reputation as proximate result of the statements identified
in your answer to Interrogatory No the reasons for your belief that those
statements were the proximate cause of any such loss identify all persons who you
contend have knowledge of such loss and for each person identified state the
substance of that persons knowledge
Response Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory as it contains several
interrogatories each involving separate and distinct issues under the guise of single
interrogatory in contravention of the limits imposed by Rule 2-421 of the Maryland
Rules of Civil Procedure The Interrogatory as worded is overly broad vague and
ambiguous as well as unduly burdensome as it seeks for Plaintiff to identify all persons
with personal knowledge of the facts relevant to the issues in the case even if she has
no knowledge of their existence Without waiving and subject to said objections the
Defendants actions have caused Plaintiffs professional and personal reputation to be
called into question Defendants conduct has caused members of the public to believe
that she is bitch liar and has had sexual relationships with Nick Swisher and/ or
Brian Matusz Plaintiffs credibility with the professional athletes she covers has been
endangered by these false assertions and she has been forced to explain herself to
others as result of the Defendants false statements
Similarly here despite multiple requests Ms Royle refuses to identify the individuals
who have called into question her professional and personal reputation the members of the
public who believe that WNSTs actions caused them to believe that Ms Royle is bitch or
liar or whom believe that she has had sexual relationship with Nick Swisher and/or Brian
Matusz Ms Royle has also failed to identify the professional athletes she covers with whom
her credibility has been endangered nor the unidentified others who Ms Royle contends
that she has been forced to explain herself to
INTERROGATORY NO 12 Describe in detail any damages other than those
identified in response to the preceding interrogatories suffered by you as
proximate result of the statements identified in your answer to Interrogatory Nothe reasons for your belief that the such statements were the proximate cause of
any such loss identify all persons who you contend have knowledge of such loss
and for each person identified state the substance of that persons knowledge
Response Plaintiff refeis to and incorporates her Answers to Interrogatories
Nos 10 and 11
First Supplemental Response Plaintiff refers to and incorporates her Answers
to Interrogatories Nos 10 and 11 Plaintiff refers the Defendants to the documents
attached in response to Defendants Request for Production of Documents Plaintiff
reserves the right to supplement her Answer
Second Supplemental Response Plaintiff has suffered reputational damages as
supported by the negative comments tweets and general opinions held by fans who
have heard and believe the statements identified herein Additionally Plaintiff has been
called slut bitch and other insulting names by fans who have heard or read the
Defendants statements See Responses to Requests for Production of Documents and
Supplemental Exhibit
Finally here Ms Royle fails to identify the fans who have heard and believe the
statements identified herein and fans who have heard or read the Defendants statements
who allegedly called Ms Royle slut bitch or other insulting names Similar to the
deficiencies with her answers to Interrogatory Nos and 10 Ms Royles refusal to specifically
identify these individuals creates virtually limitless and impossible universe of witnesses from
which she might call upon to testify

II In Addition to Ordering Ms Royles Compliance With WNSTs Discovery Requests
Within 10 Days This Court Should Award Costs Including Reasonable Attorneys
Fees
Ms Royles continued reftisal to provide documents and information at the core of this
litigation has set back WNSTs evaluation of her claims and the preparation of its defense As
detailed above WNST made numerous efforts to amicably resolve these discovery disputes
inconveniencing the Court Since WNST has been forced to seek redress from this Court Ms
Royles continued failure to comply with her discovery obligations inhibits the trial courts
inherent authority to manage its affairs and achieve an orderly and expeditious disposition of
cases See Hossainkhail Gebrehiwot 143 Md App 716 728 2002

sanctions on the violating party River Ins Co Mayor City Council of Baltimore 343
Md 34 47 1996 Braxton Faber 91 Md App 391 396-97 1992 In imposing sanctions
trial courts have considered whether the disclosure violation was technical or substantial
the timing of the ultimate disclosure the reason if any for the violation the degree of
prejudice to the parties respectively offering and opposing the evidence and whether any
resulting prejudice might be cured by postponement and if so the overall desirability of
continuance Hossainkhail 143 Md App at 725-26 see also Sindler Litman 166 Md App
90 124 2005
Here Plaintiffs failures of discovery are substantial and deliberate She has stubbornly
refused to define the basic contours of her defamation and false light claims She flatly reftises
to produce her Facebook page based on an arbitrary distinction that it is personal She dodges
question directed to her claim that Defendants accused her of inappropriate or sexual
relationships with professional athletes by denying relationship with two professional baseball
19
players but conspicuously naming no others She improperly invokes privilege over an
enormous subset of relevant information evidencing her relationship with professional athletes
And she refuses to name numerous witnesses apparently with knowledge of the facts giving rise
to her claims These failures are not accidental and WNST continues to be prejudiced by them
Accordingly sanction of some kind is necessary to prevent Plaintiff from continuing to
frustrate WNSTs defense of her lawsuit
To begin with pursuant to Rule 2-43 the Court should issue an order prohibiting
Plaintiff from introducing into evidence any materials she has not provided for Defendants Rule
2-433a2 See also Attorney Grievance Commn of Maryland James 385 Md 637 659-
612005exclusion of evidence as sanction was warranted where partys failure to provide
timely discovery failed to give opposing party adequate time to review and prepare
Storetrax.com Inc Gurland 168 Md App 50 89-90 895 2006 affd 397 Md 37 2007
the damage in withholding evidence despite the remedy available in motion to compel is
unfair surprise Ms Royles failure to provide documents and information material to her
claims including the identity of the fans and professional athletes whom she alleges have
information substantiating her reputational damage deprives WNST of its ability to reasonably
mount defense See Helman Mendelson 138 Md App 29 43-44 2001
Irrespective of the relief it orders the Court should award WNST costs and fees If the
Court finds failure of discovery it shall require the party to pay to the moving party the
reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining the order including attorneys fees unless the court
finds that the opposition to the motion was substantially justified or that other circumstances
make an award of expenses unjust 2-433 evasive or incomplete answer is to be
treated as failure to answer under Rule 2-432b The imposition of sanctions for failure to
20
comply with discovery including by awarding costs and attorneys fees under 2-433c is within
the sound discretion of the trial court See Mullaney Aude 126 Md.App 639 633 1999
Here Plaintiffs responses were plainly inappropriate Her deficient responses to
interrogatories even as supplemented as well as her evasive document production and improper
invocation of privilege clearly violate the rules of discovery requiring the disclosure of relevant
information so that the eventual resolution of lawsuit is based on ftll and accurate
understanding of the true facts Plaintiffs continuing acts of delay amount to an open and
obvious attempt to impede and obstruct the Defendants right to discovery matters that go
directly to the heart of the Complaint As such WNST respectfully requests that this Court issue
an order to reimburse WNST for its attorneys fees and costs incurred in preparing this motion
CONCLUSION
For these reasons WNST requests the Court grant its Motion and Order
That Plaintiffs Complaint is limited to the 18 allegedly false statements in her
supplemental response to Interrogatory No
That within 10 days the Plaintiff shall answer Interrogatory Nos 21 and 22
regarding her involvement in personal sexual and/or inappropriate relationships with
professional athletes
That within 10 days the Plaintiff shall produce all documents responsive to
Document Request Nos 10 11 12 13 and 14 or alternatively if she asserts the reporters
privilege that she produce privilege log consistent with Discovery Guideline 5c
That within 10 days the Plaintiff shall produce for inspection and copying her
personal Facebook account or alternatively produce her complete downloaded personal
Facebook account
21
That within 10 days the Plaintiff shall identify the unnamed individuals within
her responses to Interrogatory Nos 10 and 12
That Plaintiff is prohibited from introducing into evidence any materials she has
not provided to the Defendants within the 10 days provided in the Courts Order
That the Plaintiff to pay the Defendants reasonable attorneys fees and costs in
responding to her discovery deficiencies and any other relief the Court deems just and
necessary

Re Jennifer Royle NASTY 1570 Sports LLC et al
Case No 24-C-11001571
Dear Mr Tobin
send this letter pursuant to the issues discussed in our teleconference on July 5th 2011
As an initial matter we have provided all responsive documents in our immediate
possession custody and control answering your discovery requests on three separate occasions
The Plaintiffs discovery responses will continue to be supplemented upon the receipt of
additional responsive documents given the deadline for discovery in this matter is February 21
2012
Moreover the Plaintiffs personal Facebook.com account information and the names of
every individual athlete with whom the Plaintiff has ever been inclined in personal sexual
and/or inappropriate relationship with are not relevant to and have no bearing upon the
allegations in the Complaint Plaintiffs allegations relate to her professional reputation as
To the extent that the information sought in Interrogatories No 21 and 22 is related to and/or seeks the
production of confidential source information or information collected as part of the Plaintiffs role as member of
the media such information is confidential and protected under 9-112 of the Courts and Judicial Proceedings of
the Annotated Code of Maryland As you well know court cannot compel the admission of confidential
information collected by member of the press including her sources without clear and convincing evidence that it
is relevant to significant legal issue

journalist The allegations regarding relationships with professional athletes are limited solely to
the Defendants defamatory statements concerning Brian Matusz of the Baltimore Orioles
organization and Nick Swisher of the New York Yankees organization See Supplemental
Answer to Interrogatory No 21 Thus any relationship whether personal sexual inappropriate
intimate romantic or otherwise that the Plaintiff has/had with other athletes if any is wholly
irrelevant to whether the Plaintiff has had such relationship with Mr Matusz and Mr Swisher
With respect to the Plaintiffs medical records all records in the possession custody or
control of the Plaintiff have been produced We have followed up with Dr Liebman and have
sent executed authorizations and requests for the records of the following health care providers

Further you have refused to produce the Defendants Facebook.com account information
on the grounds that it is not relevant despite the Plaintiffs request for such documents In good
faith attempt to obtain the relevant responsive documents we request that the Defendants
supplement their discovery responses with any professional Facebook.com account information
including but not limited to the WNST.net organization page and place page as well as
Defendant Aparicios fan page It is inexplicable that you refuse to produce Defendant Aparicio
Clark and Forresters personal Facebook.com account information on the grounds of relevancy
and claim that you are entitled to Plaintiffs personal Facebook.com account information which
contains no information related to the allegations in the Complaint and which is used solely for
non-professional purposes
The twitter records produced by Defendants are incomplete It appears that rather than
searching for the relevant responsive information you simply produced tweets from certain
days surrounding the blog posts and twitter posts previously identified in the Plaintiffs
discovery responses We believe there are additional tweets that would be responsive to the
Plaintiffs discovery requests Furthermore we continue to discover blogs relating to the Plaintiff
on the website operated and maintained by Defendant WNST and readily accessible to youwhich you have failed to produce This indicates that you have failed to perform detailed
search of the Defendants databases for the requested responsive documents and information
Given the foregoing and attached hereto Plaintiff has produced the all information
related to her profesional Facebook.com fan page look forward to receiving the Defendants
professional Facebook.com account information as well as the relevant blog posts and twitter
posts requested in the Plaintiffs discovery responses
Finally have received and reviewed your letter to me of July 15 2011 It is incorrect
What we discussed and what confirmed was that Supplemental Answer to Interrogatory Noconstitutes statements which are actionable If there are additional actionable statements youwill glean this in the Plaintiffs deposition and we will of course supplement Plaintiffs Answer
to Interrogatory No accordingly Your continued reference to Maryland Rule 1-341 is
inappropriate and misplaced

THE COURT Okay thats fine Be seated
Everybody just be seated for minute Okay have
read everything You may have ten minutes each That
includes your rebuttal time
MR TOBIN Thank you your Honor Charles
Tobin on behalf of the Defendants Your Honor were
here on -- what is essentially reduced to Motion to
Dismiss single count in the Complaint We have
answered defamation count We have answered false
light count and proceeding on written Discovery
presently And in their opposition papers to our Motion
to Dismiss they have conceded and cleared the way to
entry of dismissal of Count which sounds an invasion
of privacy by publication and private facts So the
only issue remaining for argument today is our motion as
to Count which is intentional infliction of emotional
distress
Your Honor my clients are the owners and
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
410-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
employees of sports radio station an a.m station
here in the Baltimore market The Plaintiff Jennifer
Royle is also sports radio broadcaster with the f.m
station owned by CBS WJZ radio So this is lawsuit
against rival sports -- filed by rival sportscaster
against rival sportscaster
The grounds for our motion today are that
emotional distress as tort in Maryland is highly
disfavored She has opportunities to pursue her claim
by virtue of our answering for defamation and for false
light but she does not meet the qualifications meet the
elements prima facie on the face of her complaint for
pleading claim for intentional infliction of emotional
distress
We have three grounds for our argument and
they go to the three separate elements of the cause of
action Number one the conduct she alleges is all oral
communications that she alleges are false and
defamatory the second basis for her defamation claim
And under the case law recited to the Court oral
statements even if defamatory even if allegedly in poor
taste even if injurious are not actionable absent more
than that like close personal relationship And even
in those cases the bar is set very very high
Second of all the Plaintiff has not alleged
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
the severity of harm required to satisfy the tort in
Maryland because Maryland has such high threshold for
the tort the harm must constitute severe and disabling
emotional distress She does not plead that in the
complaint Finally Your Honor there were no facts
sufficient to support the allegation of intentionality
to cause severe emotional distress which is third
element that is required for the tort
As to the first one the conduct alleged We
rely on four precedent cases that we believe fully
answer the issue Batson phonetic vs Shiflett
phonetic decided by the Court of Appeals Ratner
phonetic vs Miller and Penn Hollow phonetic vs
Cecil County decided by the Court of Special Appeals
And finally federal case relying on Maryland law
Thompson vs BET Soundstage
In the first three cases Batson Miller and
Penn Hollow the Court was confronted with the action
ability under the emotional distress tort of alleging
defamatory or offensive words Her complaint alleges
that things were said about her job Things were said
about the performance of her job Things were said
about the truthfulness of her resume Things were said
about that were demeaning to women Things were said
about here in all of those connections with how she
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
410-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
performs her job In each of the three of the first
three cases mentioned Batson Miller and Penn Hollow
The Court of Appeals and the Court of Special Appeals
held that mere words alone mere insults even if
offensive to woman with all apologies to the Court we
put those words in our reply brief Even words that are
really nasty if thats what we said which remains for
later proceedings just do not qualify for the tort
under that very high threshold
Our first grounds are that in her complaint
Paragraphs 19 through 24 and in her opposition brief
she makes clear this entire claim is about words that
she doesnt like and considers injurious and that form
the basis for her remaining defamation and false light
claims and on that basis alone we believe dismissal is
warranted
Moving to the severity of the emotional
distress claim She has to plead and prove that the
intentional infliction of the stress caused such severe
harm that it interfered with her ability It rendered
her disabled from conducting her daily life Clearly
she pleads in the complaint she still performs on the
radio Still conducts herself on the radio But as to
the complaint itself the allegation that she has made
is that she has seen mental health counselor and taken
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
medications Thats what we have for the purposes of
today on the face of the pleadings
In the case of Harris vs Jones which is
where the Court of Appeals in 1977 adopted the false
light tort In the case of Polder phonetic Bowen
that in 1993 the Court of Appeals revisited the tort
And most recently in April of 2001 in the Special
Appeals Court Ladding phonetic vs St Josephs
Society which arose out of this courthouse case
thrown out on Motion to Dismiss by Judge Allison All
of the courts said that allegations that someone went to
mental health counselor and took medication are not
enough to meet the severity of the threshold test
formulating for disabling and debilitating emotional
distress
And just to give you an example in Folder vs
Bolden the Plaintiff pleaded that he was unable to make
associations with people He was locked in room
unable to leave and as result of that lost trust in
people He became paranoid All of the allegations
that arguably are even more stringent than she has in
her complaint were held not to meet the needs of the
tort And the only cases that have succeeded on the
basis of offensive words or single visit to
psychiatrist or series of visits to psychiatrist
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 4868-800-950-DEPO 3376
There has been special intimate relationship
They rely for example on the case of
Figuredo phonetic Torres In that case the Court
and the later court said that was really outlying
case really special case In that case marriage
counselor was counseling husband not to be intimate
with the wife and at the same time having sexual
relations with the wife And the Court of Appeals
understandably held that that was severe enough to
constitute intentional infliction of emotional distress
and the severity to harm was great enough to qualify for
the tort because of the specialness of the relationship
In this case were dealing with rival
sportscasters saying things about each other in public
places on Twitter on Facebook Everybody has public
profile There is not that special relationship that
should cause this ordering Court to lower the bar below
very high level that Maryland has set
Finally as to the element that they have to
allege intent with sufficient particularity In the
Ford case that we have cited Ford vs Juvenile
Administration the Court noted that pleading has to
set forth specific facts of the intent What their
complaint says is we intended it We obviously
knowingly made the statements that they allege
Whatever those statements turn out to be And they say
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
that therefore drawn inference and its axiomatic that
we must have intended to cause severe emotional
distress Thats not what the law in Maryland says In
the Minicki phonetic case in particular it says the
Plaintiff has to get to the evidentiary particulars
You cant ask court to rely on axiom or inference from
the acts to and from intent So they have to plead very
specifically what our intent was not just the boiler
plate of the language and theyve done nothing of the
kind
Moreover there is First Amendment overlay
to any case involving speech over public airwaves about
public figure like their client Ms Royle sports
radio personality And in the First amendment case of
Falwell vs Hustler magazine the rights inaudible of
Hustler Magazines depiction of Reverend Jerry Falwell
in an advertisement parody advertisement The
Supreme Court said they have to establish First
Amendment actual malice The highest standard of
culpability for free speakers under the First Amendment
in the United States That would require them in their
complaint to plead and prove facts to show that we
actually knew the statements were injurious to her as
matter of emotional distress and would cause severe
debilitating emotional distress that would disable her
from her daily life under the standard
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
So for those three independent reasons Your
Honor were not asking for dismissal of anything else
today other than what weve conceded by the facts
claimed We are moving forward Weve just exchanged
written Discovery on the defamation and the false light
claim but we do believe for all three independent
reasons that the Court should dismiss the prejudice the
intentional infliction claim as it does not meet the
very high bar that Maryland requires Thank you Your
Honor
MS MOYLjAN Your Honor first and foremost
Counsel is correct that we are not opposing the Motion
to Dismiss Count for the invasion of light publication
and public facts However Your Honor the reason were
here today is determine whether the Defendants conduct
as pled and assuming the truth thereof which is the
standard in Maryland on Motion to Dismiss rises to the
level of extreme and outrageousness yet sufficient
enough to withstand the instant motion
The case law and the Court of Appeals of
Maryland have said the task here is whether the conduct
would be tolerated by reasonable person in todays
society dont believe that being sniffed at water
cooler while youre at work and then having one of the
Defendants then tweed that they would have snapped your
neck in half because you stood up for yourself when you
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
were being sniffed at the water cooler in professional
environment Having reporter and colleague refer to
you as scratch and sniff sticker and various other
allegations that are contained in the complaint
specifically at 2lA through -- Im sorry through
going forward to Count -- Paragraph 25 This type of
behavior and the type of behavior thats alleged in the
complaint is harassment The General Assembly has
passed criminal statute and would argue that
supports the notion that this is not tolerable in
civilized society
Additionally we wouldnt be here today if the
Defendants conduct had been conducted at cashier in
grocery store or even if it was male attorney at one
firm saying this about female attorney at
competitors firm in an effort to belittle the person
to stifle the competition to cause them to suffer not
only in professional life but in their personal lives
by spreading falsities about that persons private life
Who that person has had sexual relationships with when
this person then has to go and then cover these same
people as shes been alleged to have sexual relations
with on the internet on the radio to other colleagues
in the press boxes in professional work settings
The intention issue find puzzling because
there is no doubt that by washing into -- its alleging
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
complaint that the Defendant began to do this on
February 24 2010 Its been more than year that the
Plaintiff Ms Royle has been suffering from constant
harassment by the Defendants And the sole purpose of
this campaign has been to harass her to get her to quit
her job to stifle her competition to just reek havoc
on her reputation that shes built and that shes worked
hard to build
And the statements have been circulated in
local media its been circulated to the public and the
Defendants are in particular position where they do
have various outlets of placing these false statements
out there for the public to believe and we intend to
prove that the public has in fact taken these
statements as true That she slept with various
professional athletes that shes lied on her resume
shes had to explain herself to her superiors at work
and that was at the very least done in reckless
disregard for the fact that it would cause Ms Royle
extreme emotional distress It was willful and
malicious and it was meant to drive her out of the local
sports media
The physical manifestations of the Defendants
conduct that caused the Plaintiff severe emotional
distress are well pled Shes forced to seek medical
treatment and is continuing to seek medical treatment
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
Shes changed her work habits She has to take
prescription medication to deal with the emotional
distress that has been inflicted by the intentional act
of the Defendants and to endure this campaign of abuse
And would argue Your Honor that these are
not mere insults and theyre not indignities or
tribulations that should be endured by somebody as part
of an everyday life Its perfectly acceptable to
engage competitor to comment and express as the
Defendants motion says that shes professionally inapt
However the Defendant has crossed the line is simply
what happened here Launching into year long tirade
against another reporter that includes allegations that
are completely false as alleged and has taken as true
causing her to suffer in her professional relationships
her personal relationships and intended to cause her
damage No professional woman should be expected to
endure this as part of everyday life And would
argue Your Honor that these statements would not have
been made to male
THE COURT But thats not really what Im
deciding Im not deciding if the statements were good
Thats not the inaudible for intentional infliction
Im not deciding the statements would have been to
male Im not deciding whether or not somebody should
tolerate them Thats not what Im deciding Thats
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
410-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
not what the law is So thats not -- and just want
to be really clear thats not what the law is
MS MOYLZAN Right
THE COURT Its not whether or not it was
good idea Its not whether or not somebody should
tolerate it Its not whether or not they were fair
Its not whether or not they upset her Its not
whether or not about people believed it Its not
whether or not you know it messed up her job Thats
not what intentional infliction of emotional distress
is None of those things None
MS MOYLAN understand Your Honor
THE COURT So then dont need to consider
any of that
MS MOYLAN would argue that the statements
as alleged in the complaint are extreme and outrageous
and that the Defendant acted intentionally to cause Ms
Royle severe emotional distress and would also submit
another issue for the Court today that todays society
is altered by social media by the variety of outlets
that the Defendants have used to impute with the purpose
-- to make statements with the purpose of imputing Ms
Royles professional --
THE COURT That is not emotional distress
In other words its actually when you tell me if that
is the intent that is not severe emotional distress
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia

Lets assume -- in other words cause thats saying
what the affect it had on other people It had other
people thinking that it doesnt say disabled her In
other words you may think Im the worst person in the
whole wide world but if continue to function might
be able to sue under another tort because you think that
but cant sue under intentional infliction of
emotional distress because you think that
So if they did it so you can think that that
might be another tort but its not intentional
infliction of emotional distress because Im still
working and Im still functioning Even though you
think these evil things of me and can recover money
for that but not under intentional infliction of
emotional distress
MS MOYLAN And understand this is
disfavored --
THE COURT All Im saying is that the
different elements -- in other words what you are
arguing is not the elements
MS MOYLAN And would argue that the acts
while they were intended for -- would argue that the
conduct of the Defendant had two-fold purpose and it
was also intended to cause Ms Royle to suffer to
suffer severe emotional distress and --
THE COURT And tell me cases where theyve

given facts of what is severe emotional distress
MS MOYLAN Yes Your Honor
THE COURT Whats factual character of
severe emotional distress and dont want the case
where the therapist slept with the counselor That
doesnt work
MS MOYLAN In Moniodis Cook 64 Md App
one of the Plaintiffs -- first and foremost all of
the intentional infliction of emotional distress claims
went to -- were submitted to the jury The Court of
Appeals said that one of these Plaintiffs did meet --
THE COURT tr1hat were the facts
MS MOYLAN The Plaintiffs were accused --
THE COURT No What was the severe emotional
distress
MS MOYLAN She was suffered from an existing
nervous condition and she was found -- there was
testimony that she was found at home inaudible her
hands crying there was significant deterioration of
her emotional state She was required to take greater
amount of prescriptions for her nervous condition and
relatives had to help her tend to her household chores
THE COURT In other words she could not
function as part of daily living
MS MOYLAN And if Your Honor is inclined
THE COURT No Its not me dont get to

41 0-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
make it up really dont am not -- was going to
say Im not in charge of the world but Im not even in
charge of the Court of Special -- Im not even on the
Court of Special Appeals dont get chance to make
it up and Im not deciding whether or not this behavior
was appropriate but what youve alleged doesnt come
close to what you just described
MS MOYLAN And if Your Honor is inclined
to grant the Motion to Dismiss we would ask for leave
to amend
THE COURT No Why would you have anything
to amend If you had anything to say you would have
said it No No On what basis would there be leave
to amend for what
MS MOYLAN To provide -- if Your Honor is
saying that it fails to state cause of action --
THE COURT What are you going to amend it to
say Whats going to happen thats going to change it
MS MOYLAN We would include the allegations
in the affidavit of the statements and --
THE COURT But it doesnt come close to what
youve just described You just gave me an example of
severe emotional distress and what youve described
doesnt come close You have nothing to show that comes
close And again Im not deciding if the behavior was
appropriate Im not deciding that she was not harmed

410-766-HUNT 48681-800-950-DEPO 3376
Thats not what is before me right now The question
is whether or not theres intentional infliction of
emotional distress has been adequately pled dont
see it dont get chance to make it up Ive got
to do what the law says just dont see it
MS MOYLAN Thank you Your Honor
THE COURT And want to be very clear The
Court in ruling can assume that everything the Plaintiff
said in her complaint and everything that her lawyer
argued is true Including in fact actually what her
lawyer argued is to intent that it was the intention to
put her out of business and so she wouldnt be doing
this work at all mean assuming that and Im just --
lets just assume the facts support that inference No
matter what still theres no way this Court cannot
grant the Motion to Dismiss mean the most obvious
and think there are problems with some of the other
elements but the most obvious elements is theres not
severe infliction Severe -- mean it really is
different tort It is not damages Intentional
infliction of emotional distress does not mean emotional
damages Thats not what it means and thats
essentially what is pled is saying there is emotional
harm but thats not what the Court is deciding Thats
not the tort The tort is substantially more and
think the example given by Plaintiffs Counsel in terms
HUNT REPORTING COMPANYCourt Reporting and Litigation Support
Serving Maryland Washington and Virginia
410-766-HUNT 4868-800-950-DEPO 3376
of the case where somebody was really disabled from
functioning that that would be -- mean the fact that
someone is able to continue with all of their activities
of daily living and to go and seek professional help and
to seek medication may mean that if another tort is
proved in fact the person could recover damages under
another tort but it does not at all come close to
intentional infliction It just doesnt do it So for
all those reasons will grant the Motions to both
Counts Okay Thank you
MR TOBIN Thank you Your Honor
Pause
MR TOBIN Your Honor we submitted an order
THE COURT Well do my own -- see your
order inaudible Whether do your order or my order

Re Jennjfer Royle NASTY 1570 Sports LLC et aL
Maryland Circuit Court for Baltimore City Case No 24C 11001 571
Dear Mr Goodman
We send this letter pursuant to Rule 2-431 in good-faith effort to resolve your clients
noncompliance with her discovery obligations under Rules 2-421 and 2-422 Specifically the
responses Plaintiff Jennifer Royle has furnished to WNST Sports Media LLCs WNST first
set of interrogatories and document requests are deficient as described in detail in this letter We
request that Ms Royle supplement her responses within ten 10 days of the date of this letter to
avoid the need to inconvenience the Court with Motion to Compel
Plaintiffs Responses to WNSTs Interrogatories
Your clients responses to the interrogatories are evasive and incomplete under Rule 2-
432 due to the following deficiencies
Various references to unnamed individuals Throughout Ms Royles interrogatory
responses she alludes to unnamed individuals who she contends may have information related to
her Complaint The interrogatories require her to provide the names and contact information for
each These references include
Interrogatory No and Exhibit
The current and former colleagues of Defendants referenced in the
response to Interrogatory NoThe other members of the local media referenced in the response to
Interrogatory NoThe CBS employee referenced in relation to statements allegedly made
on 8/5/20 10 as described in Exhibit to Ms Royles responses
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 2011
Page
The member of the media referenced in relation to statements allegedly
made at Ravens practice on 9/7/20 10 as described in Exhibit to Ms
Royles responses
The individual who informed you that Nestor made comments about you
on the air on 2/22/2010 as described in Exhibit to Ms Royles
responses
Interrogatory NoThe individual within the Baltimore Ravens organization to whom Ms
Royle prepared correspondence on or about August 14 2010 as
described in Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory NoThe colleagues and management at MASN and CBS with whom you
exchanged emails as well as telephone conversations beginning on
approximately January 13 2011 regarding Defendants conduct as
described in Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory No
Interrogatory No 10
The individuals who have called into question Ms Royles professional
and personal reputation as described in her answer to Interrogatory No10
The members of the public who believe that Defendants actions have
caused them to believe that Ms Royle is bitch liar and has had
sexual relationships with Nick Swisher and/or Brian Matusz as described
in Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory No 10
The professional athletes Ms Royle covers with whom Ms Royles
credibility has been endangered as described in Ms Royles answer to
Interrogatory No 10
The others with whom Ms Royle contends that she has been forced to
explain herself to as described in Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory
No 10
Interrogatory No Similarly in response to this standard interrogatory asking Ms
Royle to identify individuals who may have information relating to her Complaint she lists five
non-parties by name but fails to state the substance of their testimony knowledge or
information as the interrogatory required Further Ms Royles response alludes to current and
former colleagues of Defendants and other members of the local media but does not identify
those individuals by name nor does she disclose the substance of their testimony knowledge or
information
Interrogatory No Ms Royle responds to this interrogatory by attaching Exhibit
paraphrase of the statements about her that she alleges are false However the interrogatory
calls for verbatim recitation of each alleged false statement of fact alleged by Ms Royle
Very few of the alleged statements in Exhibit include the exact words used For example MsRoyle alleges oral communications where Mr Clark allegedly just ripped her on the air
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 92011
Page
8/512010 and where Drew Nestor and Glenn continued speaking about her 9/12/2010
These and the other instances in Exhibit do not provide sufficient notice to the Defendants or
the Court of the allegedly false and defamatory words Further Exhibit fails to identifS the
web address of any allegedly actionable statements that Ms Royle contends are on WNSTswebsite
Interrogatory No Ms Royles response incorporates her response to the preceding
interrogatory which asks an entirely different question Rather than explaining why she believes
iistatement identified in her answer to Interrogatory No was false when it was made as
Interrogatory No requests Ms Royle generally states that she has never lied on her resume
and has never purported to have credentials she does not have Moreover Ms Royles response
states that she has never been romantically involved with Nick Swisher or Brian Matusz but
her Complaint generally alleges statements that she has had personal sexual and/or
inappropriate relationships with professional athletes Complaint 27 Therefore Ms Royle
must respond to the interrogatory as to all professional athletes as asked and as her Complaint
alleges and not limit her response to Ms Swisher or Mr Matusz
Interrogatory No Ms Royle generically refers to conversations correspondence and
telephone conversations with unnamed individuals and in addition to failing to provide their
names and contact information fails to state the date of the communications or the substance of
the communications as the interrogatory requests
Interrogatory No Ms Royles response incorporates her response to Interrogatory
No which provides none of the information sought in Interrogatory No regarding MsRoyles complete factual basis for her assertion that the Defendants knew statements were false
subjectively entertained doubts as to the truth or falsity of statements or published them with
high degree of awareness as to their probable falsity
Interrogatory No Ms Royles response directs WNST to Ms Royles response to
Interrogatory No which provides none of the information sought in Interrogatory Noregarding the complete factual basis for Ms Royles allegation that Defendants acted with
common law malice ill will or spite
Interrogatory No 11 Ms Royles response refers to Dr Goldiners letter but has not
furnished any such document
Interrogatory No 12 Ms Royles response incorporates her response to Interrogatory
Nos 10 and 11 neither of which provides the information sought in Interrogatory No 12
regarding whether Ms Royle has any damages other than those identified the other interrogatory
responses Because her response does not include any other damages we will rely on this
representation that she has none and proceed with the defense on that basis
Interrogatory No 15 Ms Royle responds with the names of two doctors and lists no
other medical professionals with whom she has ever visited concerning her mental and/or
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 92011
Page
emotional health in her lifetime as the interrogatory required Ms Royles pre-existing mental
health condition is clearly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint
Interrogatory No 16 Ms Royle objects to this interrogatory which requests
correspondence with members of the public about her work in Baltimore without stating
whether any documents or communications exist that are responsive to the question Obviously
Ms Royles reputation is clearly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint and the
interrogatory requests information on that issue
Interrogatory No 19 Ms Royle failed to attach the document referenced as Exhibit
to her responses Moreover her response provides no information about her reason for leaving
each place of employment as the interrogatory required
Interrogatory No 20 We advised your colleague Alexandra Moylan at the June 2011
hearing that Ms Royle failed to answer this interrogatory in any manner Ms Royle is required
to respond to this interrogatory as with all others
Interrogatory Nos 21 and 22 Beyond the boilerplate objections to these interrogatories
Ms Royle provided no information citing relevancy grounds Ms Royles Complaint at 27alleges that the Defendants made false statements that she had personal sexual and/or
inappropriate relationships with professional athletes Defendants therefore are entitled to the
information requested in Interrogatory No 21 about any former or current professional athlete
with which Ms Royle has ever had personal sexual andlor inappropriate relationship as
well as the information requested in Interrogatory No 22 for information about any intimate
romantic or sexual relations of any nature she has ever had with any former or current
professional athlete This information is directly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint
Plaintiffs Responses toWNSTs Document Requests
To date you have not provided us with any documents responsive to WNSTs requests
On June 2011 following the hearing on Defendants Motion to Dismiss we asked Ms Moylan
about the requested documents that she advised were in your office We requested that she send
us those documents right away To date we have not received them Please email or those
documents to us or send them overnight
Ms Moylan further advised during our June discussion that your law firm is still
awaiting responsive documents from Ms Royle As you are aware and as am sure you advised
Ms Royle Rule 2-422 requires that parties be prepared to exchange documents by the deadline
for responding to request for production Accordingly in addition to the documents in your
possession that you will produce immediately please provide all further responsive documents
by no later than Thursday June 16th to avoid our having to inconvenience the Court with
discovery motion practice
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 2011
Page
With respect to Ms Royles written responses they are evasive and incomplete tinder
Rule 2-432 due to the following deficiencies
Failure to Provide Privilege Log Ms Royle objects on the basis of privilege without
concurrently submitting privilege log consistent with the instructions and Maryland law
Without privilege log Defendants and the Court are unable to determine what specific
documents are being withheld and whether or not Ms Royles objections are appropriate
Specifically Ms Royle asserts that documents are protected by the attorney-client privilege
and/or work-product doctrine in her responses to Document Request Nos 16 17
18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 and 32 and the Maryland Shield Law in her
responses to Document Request Nos 9-14
Document Request No The response provides an objection but does not indicate
whether any responsive documents exist
Document Request No Ms Royles objection is misplaced Contrary to her
assertion all communications between her and the Defendants are not within the Defendants
possession custody and control For example the Defendants do not possess large number of
Ms Royles Tweets that were directed towards @WNST and they are not available on Twitter
Further Ms Royles interrogatories and requests for admission to the Defendants suggest that
Ms Royle believes she asked the Defendants to stop publishing statements concerning her yet
the Defendants are unaware of any communications in that regard particularly if made by her in
writing She is required under this request to provide these and all other documents and
communications between her and any Defendant
Document Request No Ms Royles objection to this request also is misplaced All
communications between Ms Royle and third parties about her lawsuit are not within the
Defendants possession custody or control Further the request is not overly burdensome To
the contrary it is confined to the time period relevant to this litigation
Document Request Nos 21 22 23 and 26 Ms Royles responses are
nonresponsive as they refer WNST to Exhibit to her interrogatory responsesMs Royles
characterization of the alleged statements made by Defendantsrather than producing the
documents supporting her allegations that these statements were in fact made The plaintiff is
required to provide the Defendants and the Court in litigation of this nature with the precise
words that are allegedly false and defamatory Ms Royles characterizations of statements in
Exhibit rather than providing the statements themselves does not meet her obligations in
discovery
Document Request Nos and 34 Ms Royles objection is misplaced here as well All
documents relevant to her activities on Twitter are not within the Defendants possession
custody or control In the request WNST set forth specific non-burdensome means by which
Ms Royle may obtain her entire Twitter history in electronic format at no cost to her Rather
than complying in good faith with this relevant and reasonable request Ms Royle refuses to
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 92011
Page
produce single Tweet Moreover Ms Royles statement that she uses Twitter daily pursuant
to her professional duties does not relieve her of her obligations in discovery
Document Request Nos through 14 Ms Royle broadly objects on the basis of the
Maryland Shield Law but fails to assert whether such documents exist and if they do Ms Royle
fails to submit privilege log consistent with the instructions and Maryland law Without such
WNST and the court are unable to evaluate the sufficiency of any asserted privilege Moreover
Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory No states that she prepared correspondence to the
Baltimore Ravens organization that relates solely to an incident raised by her lawsuit which
clearly would not fall within the protections of the Maryland Shield Law
Document Request No 32 Ms Royles objection based on relevance is misplaced here
as well Contrary to her assertion all communications between her and members of the public
are not within the Defendants possession custody and control Obviously Ms Royles
reputation is clearly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint and the request seeks
documents related to that issue
Document Request No 33 Contrary to Ms Royles boilerplate objection the
information contained on her Facebook profile is directly relevant to the issues raised in her
Complaint Like Twitter Facebook provides an easy cost-free and non-burdensome method to
access all information on Ms Royles account including to status updates email messages
photos listing of friends etc Specifically when logged onto her Facebook account Ms Royle
should select the Account tab followed by the Account Settings tab followed by selecting
Download your Information Ms Royle may then hit the Download button and her entire
account will compiled by Facebook and emailed to the email address Facebook has on record
We look forward to your supplemented responses and document disclosures within ten
10 days of this letter We reserve the right to add to these objections once your client has
further responded to her discovery obligations including providing all responsive documents If
you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us
Very truly yours

Apologist of the Morning award for her statement regarding the Orioles
Mike Gonzalez was TERRIBLE last night It wasnt all his fault but he
was TERRIBLE Hence Chris Stoner won our first Apologist of the
Morning award from Drew Forrester and myself But Im putting Jenn
Royle on notice She said the Orioles would compete to finish .500 if that
was the last of Gonzalezs struggles
And if Cesar Izturis manages to get hits every game instead of they

And before we leave the Orioles completely hearty congratulations to Jen
Royle from 105.7 for being named todays Apologist of the Morning Her
thoughts included
To lose 14 of the last 16 games and have record of 2-14.. something to
me just isn adding upThe answer of course is wins She adds..
Let me quote myfavorite movie Bull Durham good friend of mine used
to say This is very simple game You throw the ball you catch the ball
you hit the ball Sometimes you win sometimes you lose sometimes it rains
Think about that for while
Ebby Calvin Nuke LaLoosh
Luke Scott said he praying things get better think the entire city of
Baltimore is as well If things were only as simple as the movies huhCertainly would For example if things were as simple as the movies Id of
course be with Mila Kunis.

4/26/2010 On his blog Drew Forrester states that Ms Royles hiring was
stereotypical because she is an out-of-towner He later states that she is not
qualified to ask any questions and insinuates that she frequents hang outs of
Yankees outfielder Nick Swisher
Jen Royle is the new 0s beat reporter for the teams flagship radio station
105.7 In typical Fan Fashion they hired an out-of-towner to handle the
duties of covering the team In all fairness if youre going to hire beat
reporter she might as well be pretty .no offense Casey
What will Jen Royle ask MacPhail Answer Shes not equipped to even
ask anything shes Yankees fan Maybe she can ask MacPhail if hes ever
been to the Cobb Chop House in Manhattan think heard her say its one
of Swishs favorite hang outs

Orioles Apologist of the Month He also states that she is up for comparable

her commentary of the Orioles He notes that she won Apologist of the Morning
earlier that day
The Suns Dean Jones Jr says Joey Gathright Brandon Waring had
solid night for 0s on farm
And before we move on from the Orioles few things..
A-Congratulations to our Apologist of the Morning as selected by The
Great Arbitrator on AM1570 WNSTs The Morning Reaction It isnt the
first time Jen Royle has claimed the award but its one of the funnier efforts
from her this season Via MASNSports.com..You think the Orioles have problems Compared to the Mariners they
really don
Hmm .Cliff Lee last night-was he problem for the Mariners Or for the
Orioles
The statement is obviously ludicrous The Orioles not only have as many if
not MORE problems than the Mariners they have more problems than Jayz..

5/19/20 10 Glenn Clark blogs that Ms Royles description of an Orioles gamewas wrong He later analogizes her to character on the Jersey Shore because she
is disaster He states that he doesnt want her to do her job better
The APs David Ginsburg says Orioles touched up Royals bullpen
after Creinke departed for 10 inning win
No the Orioles did not beat Zack Greinke despite what someone over at
105.7 cough Jen Royle cough said They did however win game started
by Zack Greinke which is ALMOST just as good
Edit from GMC Some might say Im obsessed vith her Theyre right Its
similar to how many of us are obsessed with Snooki from Jersey Shore
Its just such disaster that how can you possibly turn away The reality is

January 26th 2011 at 848 amHow embarrassed should Baltimore Magazine be for promoting certain
sports personality as one of Baltimores most eligible singles Shouldnt
the criteria be that Baltimore singles should actually be from Baltimore or an
active member of the Baltimore communitySecond question When said Baltimore single commented how all her
friends and back tracked to include all from out of state agreed how
horrible her magazine picture is shouldnt Baltimore Magazine offer up the
community retraction of their mistake to add her
Perhaps they shouldve waited until the spring travel issue to highlight all of

always smells really nice which is your way of saying she doesnt know
sports but because she smells nice she has job She probably doesnt give
you the time of day and thats why you dont like her DF Youre funny
but Ill humor you more Ive talked to Jen Royle on several occasions Each
time shes been condescending snarky unfriendly and snobby think she
knows sports Ive NEVER once said she didnt know sports What Ive said
is that she doesnt know BALTIMORE And because of that she has no
historical perspective at all on the Orioles and Ravens My remarks about
how great she smells .those are COMPLIMENTS She always smells great
Youd have to ask her why she insists on smelling that great around bunch

2/22/2011 Nestor comments that the only reason Ms Royle has been employed
is because she has pretty face and breasts that she is not qualified to discuss the
Orioles or any other team because Ms Royle is woman.1
3/30/2011 Nestor blogs
You can search anywhere on the internet you like and you will not find
shred of evidence that weve ever said or done anything more than tell the
truth about her journalism skills and her outlandish behavior in social media
and in Owings Mills We literally have hundreds and hundreds of public
pronouncements made by Miss Royle via social media that quite frankly
would make any WNST.net employee an ex employee And yes do the
hiring and firing here at WNSTMiss Royles feelings have been hurt by thousands of people in Baltimore
and she is quite fighter based on what we read from her public work Her
blog reiterates that on daily basis as she calls fans jerks Baltimorons
and the like You can check it out for yourself Its quite public just like this
blog
Apparently shes only decided to sue us here at WNST.net
Perhaps its because were direct competitor perhaps its because she feels
like shell get her name in the local newspaper and shell eventually extract
some money out of us Win or lose the attorney fees and my time spent
dealing with this nonsense will certainly be draining my piggy bank so Imloser beginning today no matter the outcome of this frivolous case
But to spread vicious rumors about her Not me Not this staff Not EVER at
WNST.net
You wouldnt have wanted to hear my reaction to anyone in my professional
world who gave me advice to settle lawsuit that didnt have any merit
and somehow admit guilt where there is none

Ive been doing this for 27 years as professional locally nationally and
on the internet We dont spread rumors We dont gossip We dont lie And
were unabashedly able to own up to ANYTHING we officially report via
any of our media properties at WNST.net
But were also not strangers to pointing out that our product is the best in the
marketplace every day and telling you why and proving it every day with
our passion industriousness and accountability If we dont tell you how
good we are we certainly dont expect our competition to do it
And when our competitors bring inferior out-of-town talent into the
marketplace were going to point it out
Especially when any media member would be so brazen about loving the
Yankees and Red Sox and so openly disrespectftil to the community theyre
serving the community that is literally feeding them
I. .1
No one at WNST.net has ever written or said what these allegations suggest
Not even close
We said Jennifer Royle doesnt know as much about Baltimore sports as we
do
We said shes lacking information and professionalism which ifyouve
followed her on Twitter youd see why weve come to that conclusion
Shes public figure She has fan page on Facebook She chooses to go on
the radio and serve up her opinions about our sports culture And she
chooses to fight with Baltimoreans and local sports fans seemingly every
single day of her life on the internet
The truth is this is frivolous case filed by woman who is trying to come
to Baltimore and make name for herself by suing the best sports media
company in Baltimore for pointing out what weve known since the day she
arrived Shes not Baltimore sports expert and now she has her feelings
hurt and is trying to injure WNST its partners employees agents and fans

Re Jennjfer Royle NASTY 1570 Sports LLC et aL
Maryland Circuit Court for Baltimore City Case No 24C1l00157l
Dear Mr Goodman
We send this letter pursuant to Rule 2-431 as further good-faith effort to resolve your
client Jennifer Royles non-compliance with her discovery obligations under Rules 2-421 and 2-
422
As you know Ms Royle initially responded on June 2011 to our clients written
discovery requests We wrote to you on June with detailed explanation of our concerns with
that response Following our letter on June 15 you and spoke briefly by telephone and you
suggested and agreed that we table further discussion until after we had exchanged
documents You assured us that Ms Royles supplementation and documents would address
most of our concerns On June 17 you furnished Ms Royles supplement to certain
interrogatory responses and you provided us with documents
We have carefully reviewed the information you have provided Unfortunately MsRoyles supplementation and production did not address the majority of the deficiencies we noted
in our June letter In fact the materials provided to us on June 17 raise new set of concerns
as they indicate she possesses number of documents that still have not been provided and they
appear largely designed to expand the scope of her claims Moreover she has completely
refused to provide copies of her Twitter and Facebook accounts despite their obvious relevancy
to her Complaint
This letter supersedes our June letter and specifies the numerous deficiencies in the
responses you have provided to date Ms Royles continued failure to meaningfully meet her
discovery obligations is impeding the timely course of this litigation We therefore request that
Ms Royle provide all of the information requested in this letter by July 2011 to avoid the
need to inconvenience the Court with Motion to Compel

Plaintiffs Responses to WNSTs Interrogatories
The supplemental answers to interrogatories submitted with the June 17 production failed
to address nearly all of the issues we have previously raised Your clients responses to the
interrogatories therefore remain evasive and incomplete under Rule 2-432 as detailed below
Various references to unnamed individuals Various individuals alluded to in MsRoyles responses and who therefore are material witnesses to her Complaint remain
unidentified Furthermore Ms Royle has failed to provide the contact information for any of
these individuals as required by the interrogatories These references include
Interrogatory NoThe unidentified current and former colleagues of Defendants
referenced in the response to Interrogatory NoThe unidentified other members of the local media referenced in the
response to Interrogatory No
Interrogatory NoThe unidentified individuals within the Baltimore Ravens organization to
whom Ms Royle prepared correspondence on or about August 14
2010 as described in Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory NoThe unidentified colleagues and management at MASN and CBS with
whom Ms Royle exchanged emails as well as telephone
conversations beginning on approximately January 13 2011 regarding
Defendants conduct as described in her answer to Interrogatory No
Interrogatory No 10
The unidentified individuals who have called into question Ms Royles
professional and personal reputation as described in her answer to
Interrogatory No 10
The unidentified members of the public who believe that Defendants
actions have caused them to believe that Ms Royle is bitch liar and
has had sexual relationships with Nick Swisher and/or Brian Matusz as
described in her answer to Interrogatory No 10
The unidentified professional athletes Royle covers with whomMs Royles credibility has been ndangered as described in her
answer to Interrogatory No 10

The unidentified some reporters Ms Royle alleges that Drew Forrester
spoke to about Ms Royles relationship with Brian Matusz Ms Royle
also failed to fully identify Monica in the same e-mail exchange
PRDROO 002 1-000022
The unidentified person who informed Ms Royle she had been referred to
as Jen Midol on The Morning Reaction PRDR000023
Interrogatory No Similarly Ms Royle ignored our request to supplement her
response to this standard interrogatory asking her to identify individuals who may have
information relating to her Complaint She lists five non-parties by name but refuses to state the
substance of their testimony knowledge or information as the interrogatory required Further
Ms Royles response alludes to current and former colleagues of Defendants and other
members of the local media but does not identify those individuals by name nor does she
disclose the substance of their testimony knowledge or information Moreover in the June 17
production Ms Royle quotes portions of her e-mail exchange with Greg Bader PRDR000021-
000022 but fails to provide any information about him as required by Interrogatory
Interrogatory No It is entirely unclear whether the Exhibit referred to in this
response and provided to us on June 17 supersedes or supplements the previous Exhibit
provided on June These documents contain some overlap but are entirely different Further
several statements in each document remain in paraphrased form and do not provide sufficient
notice to the Defendants or the Court of the allegedly false and defamatory words The
statements which remain vague paraphrased or fail to state witness with personal knowledge
include but are not limited to
Ms Royle alleges that Glenn Clark just ripped her on the air on 8/5/2010 but
fails to specify the exact words which were allegedly said about her
PRDR000006Statements Ms Royle alleges Mr Clark made to Damon Yaffee during Ravens
practice regarding her credentials quotes some of the allegedly defamatory
statements but paraphrases the rest Ms Royle identifies her source as letter to
persons within the Ravens organization but failed to produce the letter

alleged between Ms Royle Mr Clark and Mr Forrester on 9/12/2010 In

addition Mr Royle fails to identify the Ravens PR staff with whom she alleges
Jon Gallo spoke with about Defendants conduct PRDR000007-000008
Ms Royle quotes statements allegedly made by CJ Spiller on his blog on
9/20/2010 but fails to produce the blog and instead states Blog no longer
available on website PRDR000008Dave Hughes allegedly answered question in his mailbag regarding whether
conflict of interest would arise if Ms Royle dated player on the team she covers
for MASN on 1/20/2011 PRDR0000I Ms Royle not only appears to want our
clients to defend statement that they did not make and appeared on someone
elses forum but she has not even specifically told us precisely what that
statement was
The substance of what Ms Royle alleges Mr Forrester told some reporters on
or about 6/11/2011 is not even paraphrased PRDR00002I-000022
Comments allegedly made by Mr Clark on his blog on or about September
2010 which Ms Royle quotes but fails to provide source PRDR000023On or around August 2010 Ms Royle alleges she heard Defendants
broadcast segment called Jen Midol on The Morning Reaction Ms Royle
fails to identify the source who told her about the segment nor does she provide
any supporting documentation regarding the Jen Midol segment Ms Royle also
fails to state witness with personal knowledge as to her alleged exchange with
Mr Aparicio later that day regarding the Jen Midol segment Moreover MsRoyle fails to provide any substantiation for the statements allegedly made by Mr
Aparicio on the air that Ms Royle was the biggest bitch he has ever met
PRDR000023
Interrogatory No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Thus Ms Royles response continues to incorporate her
response to the preceding interrogatory which asks an entirely different question Ms Royles
response fails to explain why she believes iiof the statements in her Exhibit no matter
which version were false when it was made as Interrogatory No requests In addition MsRoyle failed to update her response to Interrogatory No after adding more than 14 additional
statements in her revised Exhibit Ms Royle still only generally states that she has never lied
on her resume and has never purported to have credentials she does not have Moreover MsRoyles response still states that she has never been romantically involved with Nick Swisher or
Brian Matusz but her Complaint generally alleges statements that she has had personal sexual
and/or inappropriate relationships with professional athletes Complaint 27 Therefore MsRoyle must respond to the interrogatory as to all professional athletes as we asked and as her
Complaint alleges and not limit her response to Mr Swisher and Mr .Matusz
Interrogatory No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Ms Royle still generically refers to conversations
correspondence and telephone conversations with unnamed individuals and in addition to
failing to provide their names and contact information fails to state the date of the
communications or the substance of the communications as the interrogatory requests Ms

Royle continues to refuse to provide this information even after directly quoting correspondence
with several individuals in her revised Exhibit including John Bader PRDR000021-000022
and Chad Steele Patrick Gleason and Kevin Bryne PRDR 000007
Interrogatory No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Ms Royles response incorporates her response to
Interrogatory No which provides none of the information sought in Interrogatory No
regarding Ms Royles complete factual basis for her assertion that the Defendants knew
statements were false subjectively entertained doubts as to the truth or falsity of statements or
published them with high degree of awareness as to their probable falsity
Interrogatory No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Ms Royles response directs us to her response to
Interrogatory No which provides none of the information sought in Interrogatory No
regarding the complete factual basis for Ms Royles allegation that Defendants acted with
common law malice ill will or spite
Interrogatory No 11 While Ms Royle provides medical records from Dr Goldiner and
Dr Paolino she has provided no records from Dr Liebman whom she identified as receiving
continuing provider in Interrogatory Nos 11 and 15
Interrogatory No 12 Ms Royles amended answer to Interrogatory No 12 continues to
be non-responsive and inappropriately vague referring Defendants to unidentified documents in
lieu of answering the interrogatory regarding whether Ms Royle has any damages other than
those identified in the other referenced interrogatory responses Specifically Ms Royles
response violates Rule 2-421c because it fails to specify the records from which the answer
may be derived or ascertained
Interrogatory No 15 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Ms Royle responds with the names of two doctors and lists
no other medical professionals with whom she has ever visited concerning her mental and/or
emotional health in her lifetime as the interrogatory required Ms Royles pre-existing mental
health condition is clearly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint
Interrogatory No 16 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she resolve
the deficiencies with this response Ms Royle objects to this interrogatory which requests
correspondence with members of the public about her work in Baltimore without stating
whether any documents or communications exist that are responsive to the question Obviously
Ms Royles reputation is clearly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint and the
interrogatory requests information on that issue
Interrogatory No 19 Ms Royle ignored most of the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response Ms Royles response fails to provide any

infonnation about her reason for leaving each place of employment as the interrogatory
required
Interrogatory Nos 21 and 22 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response Beyond her boilerplate objections Ms Royle
provided no information citing relevancy grounds Ms Royles Complaint at 27 alleges that
the Defendants made false statements that she had personal sexual and/or inappropriate
relationships with professional athletes Defendants therefore are entitled to the information
requested in Interrogatory No 21 about any former or current professional athlete with which
Ms Royle has ever had personal sexual and/or inappropriate relationship as well as the
information requested in Interrogatory No 22 for information about any intimate romantic or
sexual relations of any nature she has ever had with any former or current professional athlete
This information is directly relevant to the allegations of her Complaint
Plaintiffs Responses to WNSTs Document Requests
Ms Royles written responses continue to be evasive and incomplete under Rule 2-432
and her production of documents remains wholly inadequate due to the following deficiencies
Continued Failure to Provide Privilege Log As we have noted and as you and
discussed during our June 15 call Ms Royle objects to providing certain documents on the basis
of privilege without concurrently submitting privilege log as required under Maryland law
Without privilege log Defendants and the Court are unable to determine what specific
documents are being withheld and whether or not Ms Royles objections are appropriate
Moreover during our June 15 telephone conference you agreed to furnish privilege log for
these documents You did not do so in the June 17 production
Document Reqpest No In Ms Royles revised Exhibit furnished with the June 17
production she directly quotes statements either allegedly made by the Defendants or referring
to the Defendants Ms Royle has not produced single document evidencing these statements
Further for number of the entries listed in the revised Exhibit Ms Royle refers to
document from which she has quoted but does not provide the documents themselves even
though clearly they are in her possession For example statements quoted for which no
supporting documentation has been provided include but are not limited to

Document Request No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response She has provided no documents between her and
any of the Defendants and as we already noted contrary to her objection all such
communications are not within the Defendants possession custody and control As to any
communications she sent via Twitter they are no longer accessible by the public on the Internet
Ms Royle however controls her Twitter account and can easily obtain complete file of her
Twitter communications including those that she directed at our clients account @WNSTGiven the relevancy of these communications to her Complaint Ms Royle is obligated to
retrieve the Twitter communications and provide copy to us
Document Request No Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response Contrary to her objection communications between
Ms Royle and third parties about her lawsuit are not within the Defendants possession custody
or control Further the request is not overly burdensome To the contrary it is confined to the
time period relevant to this litigation Ms Royle makes at least two references to text messages
and c-mails which she failed to produce in an unidentified three-page document she produced
on June 17 PRDR000099-000101 Moreover in Ms Royles revised Exhibit she quotes
written communications between her and third parties regarding Defendants but nevertheless

Tweets entirely non-responsive to the requests but they are restricted to the last few weeks of
June 2011 and not the timeframe referenced in your clients Complaint Ms Royle therefore has
flatly reftised to produce any documents relevant to her activities on Twitter Ms Royles
statement in her response to Request No that she uses Twitter daily pursuant to her
professional duties does not relieve her of her obligations in discovery to provide her account
history
Document Request Nos through 14 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter
that she resolve the deficiencies with this response Ms Royle still broadly objects on the basis
of the Maryland Shield Law but falls to assert whether such documents exist and if they do MsRoyle falls to submit privilege log consistent with the instructions and Maryland law Without
such Defendants and the court are unable to evaluate the sufficiency of any asserted privilege
Moreover Ms Royles answer to Interrogatory No states that she prepared correspondence to
the Baltimore Ravens organization that relates solely to an incident raised by her lawsuit which
clearly would not fall within the protections of the Maryland Shield Law
Document Request No 32 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response Contrary to her assertion all communications
between her and members of the public are not within the Defendants possession custody and
control Obviously Ms Royles reputation is clearly relevant to the allegations of her
Complaint and the request seeks documents related to that issue
Document Request No 33 Ms Royle ignored the request in our June letter that she
resolve the deficiencies with this response She has failed to produce the requested information
from her Facebook page despite your assurance during our June 15 2011 telephone conference
that you would produce information from her professional Facebook accounts Like Twitter

Facebook provides an easy cost-free and non-burdensome method to access all information on
Ms Royles account including to status updates email messages photos listing of friends etc.2
We must have Ms Royles complete supplemental responses to the interrogatories and
all documents and other information we have requested by no later than July 2011 to avoid
our having to inconvenience the judge with motion practice
am happy to discuss this with you by telephone and will email you some suggested
times for call But we need to adhere to the July timeframe in order to move this matter
forward

Re Jennter Royle NASTY 1570 Sports LLC et
Maryland Circuit Court for Baltimore City Case No 24C 11001571
Dear Mr Goodman
We send this letter pursuant to Rule 1-341 which prohibits litigants from maintaining
proceeding in bad faith or without substantial justification and provides for the Court to award
the reasonable expenses including reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the adverse party
This letter follows our telephone conversation of June 15 2011 in which asked you to narrow
your clients claims to prevent the proliferation of this litigation through allegations about
statements that do not fit within the torts that remain in the Complaint
As you are aware the Court at the June 2011 hearing dismissed your clients cause of
action for intentional infliction of emotional distress Count IV With your concession that the
Plaintiff also inappropriately included the count in her Complaint the Court dismissed her claim
for invasion of privacy by publication of private facts Count II as well The dismissal of these
claims leaves two specific causes of action remaining in this lawsuit defamation and false light
invasion of privacy Counts and III
As you thrther rare aware the defamation and false light torts each requires that the
Plaintiff plead and prove among other elements false statement of fact Alleged statements
that are not fact and that are not capable of being proved true are false are not actionable
under these torts
raised this issue with you in our June 15 telephone conversation where we discussed
your clients initial deficient discovery responses Your clients Complaint as best we can tell
includes 12 allegedly actionable statements Since the Court dismissed all claims but defamation
and false light the number of allegedly actionable statements should have decreased following
the June hearing Nevertheless in the initial discovery responses you served your client
increased the number of allegedly actionable statements and listed total of 29 statements
Mr Brian Goodman Esq
June 27 2011
Page
During our telephone conversation on June 15 asked you to reconsider the statements and
narrow Ms Royles Complaint to only those statements that arguably would fit within
defamation or false light causes of action You advised that the Plaintiff would do this
Following that discussion on June 17 you served supplemental interrogatory responses
and produced documents to us Included in those documents is an entirely new list contained in
PRDR000001-23 and PRDR000099-lOl which as we understand it supersedes the previous list
of allegedly actionable statements that you provided on June At this juncture Ms Royles
claim now includes at least 50 separate allegedly actionable statements To name just two
examples Ms Royle lists phrases such as those referring to her as apologist of the morning
see e.g PRDR000002 and others analogizher to character on the Jersey Shore because
she is disaster PRDR000005 Neither of these statements even arguably contains an
assertion of fact or is capable of being proved true or false These are among dozens of
statements that simply are not actionable as defamation or false light invasion of privacy
Ms Royle and you appear determined to make her allegations as broad as possible to
squander our resources and the Courts in derogation to the obligations under the Rules Webelieve these extraneous allegations have been made vexatiously solely
for purposes of
harassment or unreasonable delay in an effort to drive up costs and cause otherwise unnecessary
proceedings We therefore insist that by July 2011 you withdraw the list of allegedly
actionable statements provided in discovery and that you instead provide us with discrete
narrow list of those statements you contend are actionable as defamation or false light
portrayal so that we may efficiently proceed with discovery under an appropriately defined
claim
We send this letter in an effort to resolve this dispute prior to the filing of motion under
Rule 1-341 and other applicable rules This letter in no way waives your clients discovery
obligations or our clients rights and remedies
Very truly yours

me of how unprofessional you are at times My question is this. .Who are
you to criticize new young talent in town trying to learn the ropes
Perhaps she did make few blunders upon anival dont know just going

January 26th 2011 at 848 amHow embarrassed should Baltimore Magazine be for promoting certain
sports personality as one of Baltimores most eligible singles Shouldnt
the criteria be that Baltimore singles should actually be from Baltimore or an
active member of the Baltimore communitySecond question When said Baltimore single commented how all her
friends and back tracked to include all from out of state agreed how
horrible her magazine picture is shouldnt Baltimore Magazine offer up the
community retraction of their mistake to add her
Perhaps they shouldve waited until the spring travel issue to highlight all of
the tourist sites in and around town
DE This is question better suited for Baltimore Magazine and their
selection committee My guess is as long as you WORK in Baltimore
youre eligible havent seen the other sexy singles so dont know how
our girl got in but too bad the magazine didnt have scratch and sniff
sticker .ifyou know what mean Thats her best attribute by far

Drew Have you ever actually met and talked with Jen Royal or do you
disrespect her on the air because shes female and according to you
always smells really nice which is your way of saying she doesnt know
sports but because she smells nice she has ajob She probably doesnt give
you the time of day and thats why you dont like her DF Youre funny
but Ill humor you more Ive talked to Jen Royle on several occasions Each
time shes been condescending snarky unfriendly and snobby think she
knows sports Ive NEVER once said she didnt know sports What Ive said
is that she doesnt know BALTIMORE And because of that she has no
historical perspective at all on the Orioles and Ravens My remarks about
how great she smells. .those are COMPLIMENTS She always smells great
Youd have to ask her why she insists on smelling that great around bunch
of athletes Thats not for me to decide But she always smells like winner

shred of evidence that weve ever said or done anything more than tell the
truth about her journalism skills and her outlandish behavior in social media

Miss Royles feelings have been hurt by thousands of people in Baltimore
and she is quite fighter based on what we read from her public work Her
blog reiterates that on daily basis as she calls fans jerks Baltimorons
and the like You can check it out for yourself Its quite public just like this
blog
Apparently shes only decided to sue us here at WNST.net
Perhaps its because were direct competitor perhaps its because she feels
like shell get her name in the local newspaper and shell eventually extract
some money out of us Win or lose the attorney fees and my time spent
dealing with this nonsense will certainly be draining my piggy bank so Imloser beginning today no matter the outcome of this frivolous case
But to spread vicious rumors about her Not me Not this staff Not EVER at
WNST.nºt
You wouldnt have wanted to hear my reaction to anyone in my professional
world who gave me advice to settle lawsuit that didnt have any merit
and somehow admit guilt where there is none
Ive been doing this for 27 years as professional locally nationally and
on the internet We dont spread rumors We dont gossip We dont lie And
were unabashedly able to own up to ANYTHING we officially report via
any of our media properties at WNST.net
But were also not strangers to pointing out that our product is the best in the
marketplace every day and telling ou why and proving it every day with
our passion industriousness and accountability If we dont tell you how
good we are we certainly dont expect our competition to do it
And when our competitors bring inferior out-of-town talent into the
marketplace were going to point it out
Especially when any media member would be so brazen about loving the
Yankees and Red Sox and so openly disrespectffil to the community theyre
serving the community that is literally feeding them
No one at WNST.net has ever written or said what these allegations suggest
Not even close
We said Jennifer Royle doesnt know as much about Baltimore sports as we
do
We said shes lacking information and professionalism which if youvefollowed her on Twitter youd see why weve come to that conclusion
