What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHalle Berry is reacting to what the Daily Mail-style coverage calls weird photo evidence from her ex, in the middle of a custody battle.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorCornelius Vandermeet is a crisis publicist, joining us from a yacht.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorCornelius, thanks for being here. Photos from an ex are being used in a custody fight. How does anyone spin that?
Cornelius VandermeetHank, let me reframe that. These aren't photos, they're a visual launch. Everyone is talking, and talking is the whole business.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's a custody dispute, though. There are children involved, and a court.
Cornelius VandermeetLet me reframe that. It's a season finale with a built-in audience. I'd love to represent whoever shows up in season two.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeason two.
Cornelius VandermeetPrestige drama, Hank. I'm holding one bell for each client who wins. That's the bell. I rang it. You heard it.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBut you didn't answer the question. Is the evidence weird or not? Her side has reacted, so what does she do?
Cornelius VandermeetLet me reframe that. The evidence is a conversation starter, and her reaction is a comeback arc. I'd put her in a spinoff by Friday.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYour own client list is public. How many of your clients actually won a custody fight?
Cornelius VandermeetLet me reframe that. Zero clients means I'm starting completely fresh, which is basically a brand-new first act. I rang the bell.
Cornelius VandermeetI know I rang it.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorZero wins. Cornelius, what would you call your career?
Cornelius VandermeetA comeback, Hank. Although I've never technically had a first act to come back from.
