Dentist Wants to Wash Author's Mouth Out With Soap
Ahh, free speech. It just causes so much entertaining drama! The Daily News reports that [a Manhattan dentist to the stars has sued a best-selling dating-book author for $5 million]. Whatever for, you ask? Well, he said that she said he sucks (or something to that effect) on LyingDentist.com and BadDentist.com. Dr. Larry Rosenthal says Ellen Fein tried to extort $100,000 from him for allegedly ruining her teeth a decade ago. And then there was the incident when she allegedly burst into his East Side office, called him a liar and accused him of sleeping with a friends daughter. Wow, now thats the kind of specific stuff youd have to be pretty creative to make up (and I don't mean dating guru creative). Rosenthal claims he settled the malpractice claim nine years ago and now wants Fein to stop her online slandering of him. The Daily News has a nice quote from Rosenthals lawyer, David Jaroslawicz, about Fein: She says her teeth aren't as beautiful as they were when she was 6 years old. Hmmm, well for starters, those were your baby teeth. So Im guessing a lot of things arent as pretty as they were less than 10 years out of the womb. (http://flickr.com/photos/mamabarns/)
