Morgan Freeman is now threatening to sue...
From The Hollywood Reporter
Morgan Freeman's lawyer has asked CNN to retract its report about sexual misconduct allegations against the actor.
The 10-page legal letter, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, is addressed to Jeff Zucker, president of CNN, and claims the story has defamed and "inflicted serious injury" on Freeman's reputation and career.
"At a minimum, CNN immediately needs to issue a retraction and apologize to Mr. Freeman through the same channels, and with the same level of attention, that it used to unjustly attack him on May 24," reads the letter from attorney Robert M. Schwartz. "CNN also needs to retract the portions of the story that concern Lori McCreary and apologize to her for defaming and injuring her."So called victims Lori McCreary and Tyra Martin have both claimed CNN misrepresented their statements for the report.
