Ghost of Merv Sues Ed

Posted Sep 29th 2008 3:06PM by TMZ Staff

It's just sad. Merv Griffin's company is suing Ed McMahon over a personal loan.

Apparently Ed has been having money troubles for a while now. Back in 2005, he needed money and his pal Merv Griffin fronted him $100,000. The first installment was due September, 2005, but so far nothing has been repaid.

The Griffin Group is suing both Ed and his wife, Pamela.

It's the latest in a string of lawsuits against Ed. His publicist, Howard Bragman, just gave us the best response EVER: "Anybody interested in a great house in The Summit?"

78. He had a misfortunate accident. Maybe the check did not arrive from Publisher Clearing House because the mailman got in an accident on the way? He should charter himself as a bank then so he can be apart of the $700 million Bailout.

79. Bill Clinton's Tres. Robert Rubin Deregulated:Light of Truth: the REPEAL of the Glass Steagall Act (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act). This legislation was passed under the Clinton administration, days before Rubin's resignation. Consolidation of investment, commercial banking, and insurance services under the direction of Rubin, has been implicated in the subprime mortage crisis. Democrats did it. Spending Bills originate in Congress which has been controlled by Democrats for the last 2 years: Democrats did it and are doing it.
