O'Reilly Lawsuit -- Click to Read
In a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the prince says that O'Reilly called him a "fraud," among other things, during a February 23 broadcast.

Von Anhalt claims that O'Reilly "knew that the statements were false," and used them to "directly injure his reputation in a substantial portion of his community."

The prince is the 9th and current husband of Zsa Zsa Gabor.

A rep from FOX News tells TMZ, "We haven't received the lawsuit yet, therefore we cannot comment."

31. I hope the Prince sues O'Reilly's ass off. I can't stand the guy, or for that matter anyone on Fox News except Greta. It may be the #1 Cable News station but it sucks big time!! It's more like a televised "Enquirer"

37. Nothing anyone says could discredit Von Anhalt, more than he has disgraced himself. He is a joke. He is the only one that doesn't realize it.

41. That's freakin hilarious! I love O'Riley, he tells it like it is, and even though I don't always agree with him, you have to respect the man for calling the scum on being scum. This idiot comes forward amidst a paternity battle, mind you he's married, and claims that he can be this babies daddy too! And he thinks it was O'Riley that made him look bad...HA HA! This scum bag fraud loser cheating ass hole better not get a dime or I am moving out of the country! Whatever happened to those black guys trying to get $$ from Kramer, did they get any?
