4/27    Let's say I'm someone famous and SNL/Mad TV keeps making fun of
        me like it does with all famous people. Let's say it is outrageous
        and they portray me as a child molester in my Santa Barbara
        mansion. At what point can I sue SNL/Mad TV for libel?
        \_ Never, see Falwell vs. Hustler.
        \_ If you can sue media for libel, South Park wouldn't be
           airing would it? Nothing is as worse as South Park.
           \_ Except, possibly, your grammar.
        \_ whenever you feel like it.  Of course, your suit will likely be
           thrown out of court and you'll be wasting lawyer dollars.

        \_ Kudos.  I just worry that some shameless ambulance-chasing lawyer
           might sue her on behalf of the criminal.
           \_ America has more lawsuits per capita than any other nation.
              Lawyers, rejoice!!!
