if Madison still has any evidence of any of this, a lawyer would do well to pick up her case at no cost to Madison

That's what I'm hoping for. The described behavior is unacceptable.

Of course, money doesn’t un-do the fact that it happened.

Getting public acknowledgement that it happened would be a very good start to healing.

slowly berated her into leaving quietly so schmucks like me (anyone that’s not so dedicated that they read the LTT forums daily), are unaware

Madison herself wrote that they were going to announce it on the WAN show, and decided to omit it when she demanded they would include the fact that she quit.

The workload described, at first didn’t sound too bad, busy, sure, but not bad.

I thought about this. I agree with what you wrote, but I would like to add something: if you go for "stupid" tweets (like "behind the scene" goofy content), hipster-style instagram posts, and boring tiktok videos showing someone walking down a corridor, yeah it can be a chill job. I don't think it would be your job for long, but it would be chill. One the other hand, if you are (like she was) clearly starstruck, and want to do justice to your idol, the tweets/instagram posts/tiktok videos alone are going to take your entire day, at the very best. This is without considering that it also was her responsibility to somehow find people available for floatplane exclusives, and manage other stuff on the top of that...

bluntly, I hope she names and shames those who were involved.

Absolutely. With written proof or screenshots if at all possible, to make it irrefutable.
