Frivolous lawsuits seem to be the order of the day for wingnuts right
now.
Following in the footsteps of Fox News comes Ted Nugent, famed
guitarist/hunter/conservative nutjob.
The Nuge is suing the City of Muskegon, MI, Mayor Stephen Warmington,
City Manager Bryon Mazade and Meridian Entertainment for canceling
some concert or other that he was supposed to be putting on.
Boy, how the mighty have fallen.
Anyway, Nugent got his concert canceled because of comments he made on
a radio show back in May (see Idiots 109) - nothing major, he was just
explaining that the words "Jap," "Gook," and "*****" weren't
offensive.
Unfortunately a lot of people found this, um, offensive, and now it
seems that The Nuge is having some difficulty getting a gig.
The particularly stupid thing about this lawsuit is that Nugent is
suing the City of Muskegon because they have "damaged his reputation
and career."
No, no, no, Ted - that's what you did.
And that's why they canceled your show.
Get it?
