Suing a TV Show for Being ‘Gross’
You know you don’t have to watch anything if you don’t like it…
But is suing really a solution?
Cleveland resident Austin Aitken was literally sick of watching the well-known Fear Factor TV show. During one episode, contestants had to eat a ‘rat smoothie’ to get their $50,000 prize. As the 49-year-old man was watching the scene, his blood pressure got so high, he vomited from dizziness.
He sought $2.5 million in damages because the TV show gave him ‘suffering, injury and great pain.’ However, Aitken wasn’t after the money at all! Later on, he said ‘These networks are going too far. You really think I expect to get $2.5 million?’
