that, as a legal matter, his election makes "the intersection between politics and entertaimnent so
"porous" that there is no distinction at all between them is either disingenuous or just laughable. Not
coincidentally, it is also insulting to the office of the presidency, no matter what view one has of its
soon to be inhabitant. It is beyond offensive to suggest that the news media, political journalists or
the President himself are entertainers and that covering them is akin to covering the "entertainment
industry."
Putting aside the reluctance of courts to enforce overbroad non-complete agreements, Ms.
Finke will only be writing about politics and the news media, not the entertainment industry.
With all this said. Ms. Finke and her counsel have advised and assured Mediaite that she will
be in compliance with any and all agreements with Penske Media.
Sincerely,
Floyd Abrams
