NBC Universal -- The Tape Will Set Bruno Free

16. When TMZ initially posted this story, the woman's statement was that she was so humiliated and upset by what happened in the bingo game that she went into another room and, while crying hysterically (or something along those lines), passed out, fell down, and hit her head on the floor--causing her injuries. She wasn't hurt by SBC and his crew, she was injured by her own reaction after the fact. At least, that's what you guys reported at first. Since then, you've only reported that SBC & his crew attacked the woman. What is she actually claiming?

It seems highly unlikely that he's going to physically attack someone while his crew is filming it. More likely, he would resist giving up the mic when she tried to take it back.

If she fell down after the fact, I doubt she'll be able to convince a judge or jury that that's SBC's fault.

18. Obviously something went down if there's a lawsuit. Lawyers are expensive.

The studio probably isn't telling the whole story, and may be trying to infect public opinion early on. It has a lot of money at stake if SBC is found at fault, not just for this suit but closing the door on future projects due to liability.

If this woman was hurt, they need to do the right thing by her and not try to bully her. It will backfire.

19. I thought it was funny how the SBC haters rushed to defend this woman even though the allegations and supposed injuries were outright comical and implausible. If anything this was a better than average example of a bogus lawsuit.

20. Color me shocked , some gold digging bitch gets embarrassed and decides she is going to cash in on it. What an imbecile. Heck even if he did wrestle with her when she tried to get him off stage why would that cause her to hit her head on the tub lol...haha , the judge is going to make her pay sasha's lawyer bills and she will have to claim bankruptcy lmao.

21. Naive much?
People ever heard of southern california personal injury attorneys desperate for media exposure that take high profile cases on a contingency basis, or dumber yet; pro bono - creaming their pants when the see their name in print or on a screen? Having visions of name recognition for the next celebrity-screwer?

She didn't have to put out a dime, I guarantee it.

23. Gee TMZ, you had all but convicted Sacha Baron Cohen on this lawsuit. Funny, if there is a tape that shows that he never touched her, TMZ needs to apologize to Mr Cohen for spreading libel and slander. Harvey, you had better blow Sacha, or you could be renaming this web site "Borat's Place".

26. Goes to show that celebs have to cover themselves at any public appearance.

A few years ago, I read that there was a mild bus crash in NYC. It was reported that three people outside the bus fell to the gound and started moanin' and groanin"

No wonder we hear that THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!

30. People are quick to judge someone without knowing them or the facts. I know this women and yes I was there the night of the event. She is a good person with a good heart and would not hurt anyone. She has helped alot of people without asking anything in return. She is a good Christian woman and don't say oh! a religeous nut. Yes things got out of hand that night and although most people at the Bingo Hall were laughing at his jokes, as he got more racey the laughter was toning down and people were shocked at what was coming out of this man's mouth. Yes it was shocking and as head bingo mangager Rochelle had attempted to put a stop to it and Bruno held her at Bay, and yes he touched her. The only thing to do now is wait to see what a court of law say's and stop badgering the poor woman. How would you like it if you were not only dealing with brain bleeds but cancer too!!! As for those of you who choose to batter us up here in the A.V. keep this in mind. 20+ years ago the Antelope Valley was a nice quiet place to raise a family, no violence and no or very little crime. That is until all the uneducated, drug dealing, drug using, perverted sex offender low lifes decided that they could not afford living in the LA Basin due to rising costs, or every cop on the beat new them so they now needed a new place to do thier dirty deeds. If the law was just they would not waste tax payer dollars housing these degenerates they would execute them like they did in the good old day's.
