has learned.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cAquaman\u201d star ditched crisis PR firm Precision Strategies Thursday, after getting frustrated with the press she\u2019s received since the bombshell defamation trial kicked off last month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe doesn\u2019t like bad headlines,\u201d one source said.<\/p>\n<p>Another source said Heard, 36, was \u201cfrustrated with her story not being told effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The actress \u2014 who is expected to take the stand in Fairfax, Virginia, as soon as Tuesday \u2014 now has consulting firm Shane Communications on retainer, sources said.<\/p>\n<p>The switch-up came after several brutal days of testimony from Depp\u2019s witnesses and a fiery <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\"

58, is suing Heard for $50 million, claiming his ex-wife defamed him in a 2018\u00a0op-ed in the Washington Post where she discussed being a victim of domestic violence.\u00a0He had filed a similar lawsuit in the UK, against \u201cThe Sun,\u201d and lost.<\/p>\n<p>The actor \u2014 who denies Heard\u2019s claims of abuse,\u00a0including that he sexually assaulted her \u2014 was not named in the essay at the center of the ongoing trial, but he claims it clearly referenced him and ruined his career, damaged his reputation and cost him tens of millions of dollars.<\/p>\n<p>Heard has never wanted cameras in the courtroom in the first place, but Depp\u2019s team won the fight to have the entirety\u00a0of the trial testimony live-streamed, meaning neither team could cherry-pick what
