Good attention or bad attention, the issue is always that certain people will want ANY type of attention.
If your convention is doomed to fail with only 4 people in attendance, if you haven't released your Abbadon module, if you haven't shown anyone a copy of your Star Frontiers game yet, if you lack even the most basic of investors/merchants for your con, if you aren't even registered with the city as a convention, if you are about to lose a lawsuit waged by billion-dollar Wizards of the Coast/Hasbro, if you harangue twelve-year old girls online when they are on a YouTube channel, and if your number one selling item is cheap plastic dice that you buy at Dollar General for $1.00 and then resell for $10 on your website......
You're gonna take BAD attention instead of good attention. Losers never get tired of losing.

Wait, what?
There's bad attention, and then there's really bad attention; there are definitely limits.
Legally speaking, this doesn't help them. Some things LaNasa allegedly said could affect the suit he has with WotC, possibly to the point of proving perjury. Other things could get him in trouble with business contracts or future suits against him (say, for not paying employees).
Business wise, there are a limited number of big names in the world of OSR. Once they piss of all of them, they're simply out of luck.
Most importantly, recent history on Indiegogo and their own sales numbers have shown that NuTSR hasn't figured out how to actually generate money, even when they have attention.
