Fear Factor made some people eat rats mixed in a blender.
"Aitken's handwritten lawsuit contends the rat-eating made his blood pressure rise, resulting in being dizzy and lightheaded -- and vomiting. Because he was disoriented he ran into a doorway, "causing suffering, injury and great pain."
Asked why he didn't shut off his television before the rat-eating segment, Aitken said he couldn't do it quick enough."

I think "Asshat" fits him rather well.

Well, the show was pretty (no pun intended) tasteless for making an episode like that. But this guy is a complete loser. I read another article on this guy, and when asked for an interview, he said something to effect of "No comment unless its in the form of a paid interview".
Loser.

He's a paralegal. Probably figured he could get a nuisance payment, quick hush money so that the FCC won't yet again lay down the hammer with a fine.

Reading that made me vomit.
I'm gonna sue cnn.com

Absolute bullshit. They explain exactly what they're going to do before they start.
If this somehow goes through, then I'm gonna go on a suing frenzy, thanks to how much of the crap on network tv makes me lose braincells.

I'll bet the hand written statement was quite eloquent....
