MEDIA MATTERS CEO EMBROILED IN $850G ‘BLACKMAIL’ SCANDAL WITH FORMER DOMESTIC PARTNER

The Media Matters CEO claims he was forced to sell his Rehoboth Beach, DE, home in order to meet Grey’s demands. Grey responded to Brock’s lawsuit by denying that he “committed any ‘acts of blackmail.’”

“Brock’s bitter legal battle with Grey, who is described in a Sept. 14, 2010, police report…as his domestic partner of more than 10 years, began after Brock began dating Washington, D.C., restaurant impresario James Alefantis about five years ago,” Fox News reports. Among the “threatening” emails sent by Grey, one written in 2008 read: “Please finish this today so I don’t have to waste my time emailing anyone – Biden, Coulter, Carlson, Huffington, Drudge, Ingraham.”

Almost two years later, Grey accused Brock of “financial malfeasance” and threatened to sabotage Brock’s fundraising efforts.

“Next step is I contact all your donors and the IRS,” Grey wrote in an email dated May 19, 2010. “This is going to stink for you if you do not resolve this now.” Yet another "non scandal" whirling around the Obama administration?
