You gotta love Americans and their propensity to sue over just about anything. Earlier I posted a piece about how some people think that suing Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen) for "tricking" people into signing release forms for the movie Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is possible. It only takes a few legal "experts" to plant the seed, and it appears the seeds are sprouting. E Online is reporting that frat boys in South Carolina who were "duped" into appearing in the Borat flick, and saying some rather racy stuff I am told (sadly, I have still not yet seen the movie), are suing:The young men charged the studio with fraud; rescission of contract; statutory and common law false light, for framing their comments to make them appear "insensitive to minorities"; appropriation of likeness; and negligent infliction of emotional distress.To think, you can sue someone for "tricking" you into revealing your true feelings. No wonder the world thinks Americans lawsuit happy.
