The family of an Arizona man whose suicide was carried live on the air by Fox News Channel last September is suing the cable network

According to the complaint filed by Angela Rodriguez, the mother of JoDon Romero's three sons, aged 9, 13 and 15, the boys have suffered extreme emotional distress after seeing online video of their father pressing a handgun to his head and pulling the trigger. News Corp., Fox Entertainment Group and Fox News Network are named as plaintiffs in the complaint.
