Amber Heard said social media is where a lie becomes the truth in response to the complaint Blake Lively filed against her “It Ends With Us” co-star Justin Baldoni, telling NBC News on Monday she "saw this firsthand." Lively accused Baldoni, the film's director, of sexual harassment, hostile work environment and trying to tarnish her reputation with a targeted social media campaign in an undated complaint filed with the California Civil Rights Department. Heard was also awarded $2 million in compensatory damages in her counterclaim, but nothing in punitive damages. Nathan delivered Baldoni a plan consisting of “social media mitigation," including “proactive fan posting" and “social manipulations” to “help change narrative” during the film's promotion, the complaint said. The film's promotion made headlines at the time because the two stars appeared to avoid each other as rumors swirled on social media that they did not get along on set.
