He gambled too that only one woman was brave enough to come forward, and that he could paint her as a jilted ex, that consented to his kinks.
The real reasons Jian Ghomeshi is suing the CBC

Jian Ghomeshi lawsuit dismissal sought by CBC
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toront...-cbc-1.2824814
The CBC is asking an Ontario court to dismiss former employee Jian Ghomeshi's $55-million lawsuit, saying the claim is "without merit and an abuse of the court's process."
"We will also be asking the court to conclude that as a member of a union with a collective agreement, Mr. Ghomeshi's only legal avenue is through the arbitration process, not the courts," a statement from the public broadcaster said Tuesday.
If it is an "abuse of process" could his lawyers be disciplined for unethical conduct?
