Reference point: MSG's policy of excluding lawyers at firms suing it. James says MSG cannot fight its legal battles in its arenas and urges the company to reverse the policy, which is direct criticism. Mixed or conditional loses: the attorney general's letter asks about possible legal violations, but the stated view of the policy carries no condition.
