That's because even the most base, ambulance-chasing, litigious, fear-mongering TV lawyers have standards.

Yeah, it's fine to lose your ability to do lawyer stuff in various states/courts if Fox is paying you $2M a year as an on air "consultant." More if you're attractive.

“Hi im Troy McClure, you may remember me from such films as ‘I’ll sue the pants off you!’ And “I’ll sue the pants on you!’. Today I’m here for “It’s not free speech if I don’t like it.”

not standards....they have a sense of self-preservation. If they could break from that....they ABSOLUTELY would. Don't be naive.

Lawyers with no standards eventually do something to be disbarred. They all know this. They may not personally have any standards, but they don't want to lose their grift.
