Plus-sized professional prevaricator* Perez Hilton is heading back to court yet again! He’s being sued for $25 million by a geriatric nurse named Diane Wargo for publishing her name and e-mail address last December, after she sent him a very impolite e-mail from her work address:
Perez you are a FAT GAY PIG! Angelina is a ugly whore! You love her because she is a fag lover! Her brother is a gay little jerk just like your fat ugly ass! MANGELINA is a digusting gross skank!
Okay, so she’s no Oscar Wilde. Or even Oscar the Grouch…
Later that day, Wargo was fired from her job at the Menorah Park Center for Senior Living in Cleveland, and she says she’s been deluged with threats and invective from Hilton’s readers. According to her suit, he violated his own privacy policy by not getting her permission to give out her personal information. But according to Hilton’s lawyer, that policy only applies to blog comments, not e-mails, and Wargo had no expectation of privacy rights.
Gosh, this all sounds so familiar… Oh yeah, now I remember! As we told you back in April, the portly pap-plunderer is suing lesser-known scumblogger Jonathan Jaxson for, among other things, giving out Hilton’s cell phone number. Here’s the first part of Hilton’s complaint, courtesy of the Smoking Gun:
Hiding behind various aliases and intentional falsehoods, Defendant Jonathan Wayne Lewandowski, aka Jonathan Jaxon, aka Jonathan Taylor (”Jaxson”), an Internet blogger, embarked on a campaign to intentionally and maliciously interfere with [Mario] Lavandeira’s business by publishing a continuous onslaught of defamatory statements and publishing Lavandeira’s private cell phone number, while encouraging people to call that number to harass him. This conduct by Jaxson defamed Lavandeira and caused him to suffer extreme business interruption and constant harassment.
See how that works? If you violate Perez Hilton’s privacy and interfere with his ability to make a living, he’ll sue you. And if you say something that displeases Perez Hilton, he’ll invade your privacy and interfere with your ability to make a living.
Problem?
*Look it up, Mario.
