Utah Man Loses Lawsuit To Viacom Over SuperBowl (NippleGate)

SALT LAKE CITY -- A judge in Utah is rejecting a lawsuit over the Super Bowl halftime show.

A Utah lawyer sued Viacom -- the owner of CBS -- in small-claims court for false advertising, claiming he was led to believe the show would be a family-oriented patriotic celebration.

But a judge says Eric Stephenson made his own assumptions -- and ruled in favor of Viacom on Wednesday.

The halftime show included the infamous Janet Jackson breast-baring incident. Stephenson also objected to Jackson and her dancers simulating sex acts on stage -- and said singer Kid Rock desecrated the American flag by wearing it as a poncho. He sued Viacom for five-thousand dollars.

5. A lawyer loses his own frivolous lawsuit?

Sweet!

6. Kid Rock is family oriented?

What, with that song about sleeping with his new girlfriend while thinking about his ex girlfriend?

Not a mention about marriage, either to current or ex.

7. I think lawyers who file their own frivolous lawsuits

should be disbarred for stupidity

The fact that Kid Rock was in that halftime show and previous halftime shows have had folks like a scantily clad Brittney Spears should have been his first clue.

At least he's equal opportunity - he went after Kid Rock desecrating the American Flag

8. If he wants a family-oriented, patriotic event...

he should hop the nearest time machine for the Sportpalast in Nuremberg circa 1936. A Parteitag rally should be much more to his tastes.

9. A guy with 4 wives is afraid of BREASTS??

Give me a fucking break. I suppose if Janet had been wearing the holy underwear beneath that leather outfit everything would have met with your blessings, Mr Mor(m)on?? :eyes:
