Hawk discusses the backlash to his views on the Taylor Lorenz article about Chorus and creators involved in the controversy. Drawing from nearly 27 years as a trial attorney, Hawk emphasizes his direct experience with contracts, litigation, discovery, and depositions to address claims that he doesn’t understand the law.
Hawk highlights the fact that the Wired article remains live, unchanged, and uncorrected days after publication, despite extensive legal review before it went public. He explains why no cease and desist letters, retraction demands, or defamation lawsuits have followed, and why that reality speaks louder than attacks aimed at the author.
Beyond the legal details, Hawk focuses on the culture of bullying and misogyny directed toward Taylor Lorenz. He shares why standing up to bullies was one of the main reasons he became a lawyer and why the vitriol from some creators reveals deeper issues of arrogance, hubris, and confirmation bias.
This discussion brings together law, media, online culture, and accountability, offering a clear perspective on why substance matters more than insults.
Watch as Hawk unpacks the Chorus controversy, the Wired article, and the legal realities behind online discourse.
