US Weekly Lawsuit: The Sexy Parts
An update to yesterday’s report on Jill Ishkanian‘s $55 million lawsuit against US Weekly: There’s sleazy sex involved. And a whole lot of it.
If Ishkanian’s claims are right, US Weekly West Coast bureau chief Ken Baker put his nanny on US‘ payroll as a reporter and sent her classy, Pat O’Brien-style text messages like “I want to have sex with you” and “I want to see you pregnant with pigtails.” He also held a staff meeting where US reporters got to vote on whether a mag freelancer had gotten silicone implants.
