This is also exactly what many theorized, after You Are Here fell apart. But makes Sydney look even more pathetic than I expected it to.
It's also bullshit that Elijah seemingly couldn't talk about this at all, and then Sydney goes public with a lawsuit. My guess is she's breaking existing NDA here, although I'm not sure how that works with a lawsuit.
Once Schaffer received his co-hosting spot at The Blaze, according to Watson, he insisted on inviting guests like “grossly misogynistic” white nationalist leader Nick Fuentes.
Yup, Sydney's looking incredibly pathetic and fragile with this whole thing. She should have just kept quiet and enjoyed the plausible deniability.
In her account, Watson found herself set up as Schaffer’s foil, embarrassed by her co-host and tricked into reading anti-Semitic messages from Schaffer’s far-right fans aloud on the show.
“It became a running gag for Mr. Schaffer and his audience that some of Mr. Schaffer’s fans would leave superchat comments with coded dog whistles that referenced grossly misogynistic and/or anti-Semitic comments for Ms. Watson to read with her not knowing what they meant,” the complaint reads.
In which someone who's built up their entire career doing internet content creation either pretends to not understand, or legitimately doesn't understand, how the internet works.
Also, considering they were cohosts...they weren't "Mr. Schaffer's fans," they were fans of the show, presumably including whining Watson. There was no hatred toward her from "Mr. Schaffer's fans." Quite the opposite.
Getting tricked into reading bad messages isn't embarrassing, it's hilarious, and part of the internet. If she wasn't so fragile this wouldn't be a big deal at all.
When Watson accidentally asked him [Jack Murphy] about that history, she claims, Murphy began to berate her. Rather than defend her, according to the lawsuit, Schaffer tried to cheer up his guest. Watson began to feel she had been turned into “the designated punching bag for the sexist guests and for Mr. Schaffer himself.”
I wouldn't say he tried to cheer Murphy up, but he was trying to keep the peace during a live show. He tried to calm him down and continue with the show until the end. He didn't bash Sydney or make her a "punching bag."
“The idea behind [the show] was never that it was to be a forum for the humiliation and abuse of the female co-host as the male host smirked and egged on this appalling behavior,” the complaint reads.
Uh, that's not how most people would have described the show. At all.
“It did not help that Mr. Schaffer would get drunk on set, and get guests drunk as well,” the lawsuit reads.
If true...no, it probably did help.
The relationship between the hosts broke down, according to Watson, when Schaffer refused to “stop unilaterally booking misogynistic and abusive people” on their show.
The argument could be made the exact opposite way; she wanted unilateral control over who couldn't be invited onto the show.
Their fight regularly spilled into the public eye—in April 2022, for example, Schaffer tweeted that he “hope[d]” Watson would sleep with Gorka, a married former Trump White House adviser. In the lawsuit, Watson describes herself as “devastated” by Schaffer’s suggestion.
I have no clue of the context, but it's a silly thing to get "devestated" about. And, again not knowing the context, I'm not even sure that was a "fight" spilling over.
Still, Schaffer kept criticizing Watson even after their show ended, referencing her in thinly veiled Twitter posts and livestream appearances with other conservative personalities.
I can't claim to have heard every statement he made, but around that time I did catch some of his appearances, and he would barely talk about it all, likely due to NDAs or simply not wanting to shitfling. If he'd actually wanted to go after her, he would have said how whiny Watson was. Some people guessed it, but I never heard Elijah say it.
Sydney's doing a lot of damage to herself with this nonsense.

On one of her livestreams with Jeremy a few months back, she talked about how she was only personally interested in the most basic bitch missionary vanilla sex.
She had some anecdote about a past BF wanting to do feet stuff, but I can't remember the specifics because it's coalescing in my brain with Nick Rekieta's friend Drex sticking his GF's toes up his ass to keep them warm.

There was no penetration, reeeeeeeeeee!!!! Drex getting teased mercilessly about that is hilarious.
Also, I meant the way the internet works, not that she had to understand those comments in particular, if what you're getting at is that she's naive. Perhaps she is. My point is, the people who send those messages (who send them along with money for you, Sydney! - they literally pay you to read those) are trying to trick her, because it's funny. They'll try to trick anyone, including people who agree with them; it's not a mean-spirited thing, either. That's what I meant about her not understanding the internet. People will do it because it's funny.
Speaking of them trying to slip comments past people, they're continuously almost getting Matt and Blonde, and Blonde agrees with most of what they try to trick her into saying.

I was thinking of chat trying to get Blonde to read coded slurs on YT while reading your first paragraph, lol.
Yeah, the correct response is to chuckle, congratulate them on almost getting you, and move on. "Oh you, you almost got me, you wascal!" The audience loves it, and you just got paid. The incorrect response is to tank your career, destroy your cohost's show, sue your boss, and look like an absolutely pathetic whiner to everyone.
Also, imagine being a "conservative" company and hiring (and working with) her, when it's obvious she's the most plain person politically-wise that re-hashes old narratives endlessly. Seriously, just go through her Twitter, it's the most generic stuff you'll come across.
She resurfaced after her departure from The Blaze doing a weekly livestream with The Quartering.
It doesn't get anymore vanilla than that on this side of Tim Pool.
Idc about Elijah, from everything I've seen lately he doesn't seem that great...
I've liked plenty of what I've seen. He's got some issues, but he's willing to say a lot more than plenty of the right wing figures who toe the line. He's been big on the pandemic shit from very early on, among other things. He's certainly a weirdo, but he's said some pretty brave things, considering the current landscape.
...but imagine larping as a conservative and whining about "misogyny" and "sexism" lmao.
Yeah, that's incredibly weak. Sydney looks freaking awful in all this.
The best interpretation here is that Syndey hired a lawyer to come up with the best case against the Blaze and she's just rolling with what the lawyer came up with, but this is still bad because she's still throwing Shaffer under the bus.
The worst interpretation is that Sydney is your run of the mill SJW feminist, with all the same lack of accountability, using 'waah i'm a delicate woman' as her excuse to demonize a man and make $. Pathetic. Shaffer is obviously not filtered, does talk about sex, does have spicy guests on, etc. But the idea that you could possibly SUE over such things is purely retarded SJW feminist bullshit.
I actually kind of liked her before. Sometimes I think TheImp is right about women.
Only heard of schaefer because of the Fuents interview. It was really good and Nick does make the woman look retarded as she feebly attempts to gotcha him.
And women not holding grudges challenge (impossible)
Sydney looks like shit in all this. The sad thing is there are still going to be tons of simps who are going to fawn over her just because she's a non-obese woman
This just makes Sydney look really bad.
This is also exactly what many theorized, after You Are Here fell apart. But makes Sydney look even more pathetic than I expected it to.

Sydney's doing a lot of damage to herself with this nonsense.
She’s a loser who threw away the biggest show she’s ever been a part of. So now she’s tries to recoup by suing for damages.
No more damage to do because she’s at rock bottom.
She also destroyed Elijah's show in the process. At least partly. I wonder what the truth of the 'groping' incident is.
On one of her livestreams with Jeremy a few months back, she talked about how she was only personally interested in the most basic bitch missionary vanilla sex.
She had some anecdote about a past BF wanting to do feet stuff, but I can't remember the specifics because it's coalescing in my brain with Nick Rekieta's friend Drex sticking his GF's toes up his ass to keep them warm.
There was no penetration, reeeeeeeeeee!!!! Drex getting teased mercilessly about that is hilarious.

Holy fuck. What a loser, Sydney.
The show was funny and you couldn’t fucking handle it.
If you can’t handle your fee fees getting hurt, don’t be an online celebrity.
never trust a ho

I did wonder what happened…
The dynamic on the few eps I saw was… Ick.
Schaffer seemed rather… Unhinged, to put it politely…
Well he was probably shit-faced drunk.
That doesn't mean she gets money.
Sydney looks like shit in all this. The sad thing is there are still going to be tons of simps who are going to fawn over her just because she's a non-obese woman
Filed under "TRUMPLAND".
Rent free.
She's already fled back to Oz months ago.
Nah, she came back for a few weeks, but last I checked was back in the US…
Could be wrong though.
Nothing can be done about that outside of Minecraft.
