When things settled down and sales dropped, they agreed to do a fake lawsuit to bring attention back to the media at hand and boost sales a second time. All as a part of a larger publicity stunt. The settlement they are currently 'talking' about was agreed upon from the start. Each party agreed to a non-disclosure agreement. What they 'settle for now' will be a percentage of the total revenue for the sales of the media. That's what I would do, and that is what is happening. Don't get caught up with a lesser mind and don't think bigger forces aren't at play.

Nice theory, but that's all it is. It was already posted in other previous threads and in several articles that it was decided in the boardroom to recind the offer after one of Joe's minions made the suggestion that they search through their archives for her first before making any official offer. They did so, found footage of her, and the rest is history.
Good story though.
