The Don Imus Slander Lawsuit: What Case?

Jay Ambrose writes at bostonherald.com: "Kia Vaughn says Don Imus ruined her reputation when he called members of the Rutgers women’s basketball team “nappy-headed hos,”...[and]...Her lawyer, Richard Ancowitz, has been quoted as saying Vaughn 'would do anything' to 'restore' her 'good name.'" In addition, Ambrose comments, "No one with a lick of sense could conceivably have thought Imus was suggesting anything factual about members of that team, and it is utterly absurd to think their reputations were diminished."
