Satan Threatens NBC Lawsuit
Prince of Darkness Offended by Carville's Remark
It appears James Carville's statement during Merideth Viera's recent Today Show interview that "Bill Clinton is the most influential entity on earth right now" did not sit too well with the Devil, whose ego is disputably bigger than even the former President's.
Attorneys for Satan report that he was "mad as Hell" at Carville for such an assertion, and that he had confided to those persons burning alive in eternal flames closest to him, "You know, I almost regret the day that I started streaming words into that hillbilly's gaping maw".
Rejecting intitial counsel... "Prince, just cool off and let this remark slide, Carville's always been good for us.", the Devil appeared determined to move ahead with the slander suit against NBC .
"We feel we've got a very strong case here", said one of the lead attorneys, "There isn't a court in the land that will look at the hard evidence of who's wreaked more earthly havoc, our client, or Bill Clinton, and come to any conclusion other than that the Devil has been defamed".
When contacted about the pending suit an NBC spokesperson sounded defiant, telling reporters, "Bring it on! Our ratings can only go up with a good, high-profile court case. It's just what the network's needed post-Katie Couric. 'Beelzebub vs. NBC'... has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?"
