Twitter was abuzz earlier today with the news that Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti is reportedly being pitched for a “Crossfire”-style TV show:
SCOOP – UTA agent has pitched Avenatti and Mooch as a Crossfire 3.0 to two cable nets. @nytmike https://t.co/MDNq9zojZW

Because that’s just what we needed right?
Avenatti did not respond to requests for comment. https://t.co/eIHlFfNJ6m

Well, a little while after that scoop dropped, Avenatti took to Twitter to set the record straight:
Lol. I have no interest in television right now. I’ll leave that to the experts. I enjoy practicing law and look forward to prevailing on behalf of my client Stormy Daniels. That’s where my focus is. #focused #basta
