You might think that someone named Jack Ass would have pretty thick skin when it comes to attacks upon his reputation. But you would be wrong.
A Montana man who legally changed his name to Jack Ass in 1997 (to raise awareness of the perils of drunk driving) says Jackass, the controversial MTV stunt-fest and subsequent film, has besmirched his sterling reputation, and he's not gonna take it.
Mr. Ass, né Bob Craft, has filed a $10 million lawsuit against Viacom, claiming the music network's parent company is responsible for "injury to a reputation I have built and defamation of a character I have created" with the conglomerate's Johnny Knoxville-led gross-out series and flick.
Ass' petition, available in its entiretly at The Smoking Gun Website, was filed in a Montana district court in November.
A MTV rep said the network does not comment on pending litigation. |
