ERIN ANDREWS IS CURRENTLY SUING HER STALKER, WHO ILLEGALLY
FILMED HER THROUGH A PEEPHOLE AT A MARRIOTT HOTEL, AND SHE IS
ALSO SUING A MARRIOTT HOTEL FOR NOT DOING ENOUGH TO PROTECT
HER PRIVACY.
THAT LAWSUIT IS FOR 75 MILLION.
ONE OF THE REPRESENTATIVES FOR MARRIOTT WAS CAUGHT AT A
RESTAURANT SHOWING THE VIDEO IN QUESTION TO OTHER PEOPLE.
THIS IS ACCORDING TO A SERVER WHO SAW IT HAPPEN AND THEN
WENT TO THE PRESS.
NOW, HE DENIES THAT.
HE SAYS IT WASN'T ME, I WAS THE ONE THAT WAS TRYING TO STOP IT.
>>OF COURSE.
HOW DID THEY FIND OUT?
>> THERE WAS A SERVER OR A BARTENDER THAT WITNESSED IT
HAPPENING.
SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT BECAUSE APPARENTLY THEY WERE NOT
ONLY MAKING LIGHT OF IT THEY WERE PUTTING HER DOWN.
LET ME GIVE YOU THE BARTENDERS EXACT STATEMENT.
NEAL DID NOT SAY THAT, I THINK THAT WAS THE BARTENDER, I
COULD BE WRONG.
>> THIS IS EXACTLY WHY SHE IS SUING.
I WOULD BE SURPRISED OF THE JURORS WHEN LOOKING AT THE
VIDEO.
>> I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHY THIS IS THE CASE, BUT IT'S
NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND OUT WHY THEY MADE THIS DECISION.
THEY SHOWED THE VIDEO IN COURT.
FOR ALL OF YOU OUT THERE WHO SAY WHY DON'T THESE WOMEN WHO
ARE VICTIMS COME FORWARD, THIS IS WHY.
THEY HAVE TO RELIVE THE TRAUMA WHILE THEY ARE IN COURT.
>> YEAH, BUT THIS GUY IS STUPID ENOUGH TO DO IN PUBLIC
WHERE HE GETS CAUGHT, RIGHT?
YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRIAL, YOU JACKASS.
SHE IS SUING YOU FOR THAT EXACT REASON.
EVEN IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT IT AND YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY,
DON'T DO IT IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRIAL AND COST YOUR
EMPLOYER MILLIONS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
THAT NUMBER JUST GOT MOVED UP BECAUSE OF THIS.
IMAGINE HOW MUCH SHE COST MARRIOTT.
>> THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A MIDDLE-MANAGEMENT THING.
IT GOES FROM HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL, THAT KIND OF
FRATERNITY MENTALITY, AND THEN IT STOPS WHEN YOU ARE IN
MIDDLE-MANAGEMENT.
THEN WE GET TO BE THE TITAN, IT COMES BACK AGAIN AND YOU
BECOME THIS GROSS, CREEPY, SEXUAL PREDATOR GUY.
IT'S LIKE THEY DON'T KNOW THE RULES APPLY TO THE GUYS AT
THE TOP.
THEY ALL SIT AROUND PASSING AROUND A NAKED VIDEO?
WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU ABOUT THE MENTALITY.
THAT IS A BEACON TO THEIR MENTALITY.
WHO GIVES A FUCK JUST ABOUT ANOTHER WOMAN.
>> I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT, BUT I AM NOT HERE TO JUDGE PEOPLE
IN THAT REGARD.
PART OF THE SUIT HERE IS, MARRIOTT, YOU DIDN'T DO
ENOUGH TO PROTECT HER.
WHY DID YOU GIVE OUT MY ROOM AND NAME NUMBER AND WHY DID YOU
LET THE STALKER GET A ROOM NEXT TO ME?
I WANTED MY IDENTITY PROTECTED AND YOU DIDN'T DO IT.
THAT GUY IS ARROGANT ENOUGH TO THEN DO THIS, NOT ONLY IS
THE PRICE GOING TO GO UP, BUT IT MAKES THEIR CASE FOR THEM.
THIS IS THE KIND OF ARROGANCE AND NEGLIGENCE THAT LED TO
ME GETTING STOCKED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
>>
UNDERSTAND THAT SOME MAY ARGUE IT WAS EIGHT AND A CONVERSATION.
BUT WHEN YOU ARE IN A PUBLIC PLACE, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY
EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY.
YOU ARE NOT PROTECTED BY ANY PRIVACY LAWS.
HIS CONVERSATION WAS NOT PRIVATE.
IF YOU ARE IN A PLACE WHERE OTHER PEOPLE CAN HEAR YOU,
THEN THAT PERSON CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT TO DO WITH THAT
INFORMATION.
IF YOU ARE A JOURNALIST IN A PUBLIC PLACE, YOU CAN FILM
OR TALK TO ANYONE YOU WANT.
IT'S PART OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT.
THIS PERSON HAD NO EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY, AND HE IS A
MORON FOR DOING THIS.
>>
THE WAITRESS WAS THERE AND SHE WAS ABLE TO PIECE IT TOGETHER.
THEY WEREN'T BEING SECRETIVE ABOUT IT.
>> HE SAYS IT WASN'T ME, IT WAS MY FRIENDS.
THEN HOW COME THE WAITRESS AND EVERYONE THERE SAYS THE
OPPOSITE?
THEY SAW YOU WATCHING IT, AND THEY SAW YOU SHOWING IT TO
YOUR FRIENDS.
THAT IS WHY YOU GOT CAUGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
>>IT'S JUST SICK.
WAY TO THROW YOUR FRIENDS UNDER THE BUS.
WOW, YOU ARE A CLASSY GUY.
MOVING ON TO SOME OTHER NEWS TODAY.
>> I AM GOING TO SAY ONE MORE THING ABOUT THIS.
>> YOU DO THAT.
>> IF YOU ARE NOT SYMPATHIZING WITH HER, REVERSE THE POSITIONS.
IT'S A BUNCH OF FEMALE EXECUTIVES, AND THEY HAVE A
VIDEO OF YOU AND IT TURNS OUT IT WASN'T FLATTERING.
RIGHT OR WRONG, IT WASN'T FLATTERING TO
YOU.
IT WAS COLD.
>>MAYBE YOU JUST CAME BACK FROM SWIMMING?
>> MAYBE THEN YOU FIND OUT THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRIAL
THERE SHOWING IT TO OTHER GIRLFRIENDS AND LAUGHING AT YOU.
CAN YOU SEE WHY YOU MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT ANNOYED IF THAT
WERE THE CASE?
>>OR
IF SOMEONE DID IT TO YOUR SISTER OR A FAMILY MEMBER OF YOURS?
PEOPLE HAVE A HARD TIME EMPATHIZING AND I THINK
THAT IS WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH STORIES LIKE THIS.
SOMEONE VIOLATED HER PRIVACY, IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW RICH AND
FAMOUS YOU ARE.
EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO HAVE PRIVATE MOMENTS BEHIND
CLOSED DOORS IN A HOTEL ROOM, AND THEIR HOME.
>> HERE IS THE THING, IT'S NOT JUST THAT IT WAS ONE TIME.
NOW FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE SHE IS GOING TO BE LOOKING
AROUND IN A HOTEL ROOM.
SHE WILL HAVE A LITTLE POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS FROM THAT.
>> I KNOW I WOULD.
I NEVER WOULD FEEL SAFE IN A HOTEL.
>> MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HAVE SEEN A VIDEO OF
YOU IN AN UNFLATTERING LIGHT AND LAUGHED.
AND THEN YOU SAY IT'S NOT COOL FOR SOMEONE TO COME IN AND
VIOLATE MY PRIVACY, AND THEN SHOW IT TO THE WHOLE WORLD.
CAN YOU SEE WHY THAT MIGHT BE DEEPLY DISTURBING?
