Hmmm...they damaged his reputation.....but what about his brain?

[grumbles]

...........and we should care, why????????????

[nowRnever]

He is a odd looking fella. What happened to his eyelashes?

[repugnicansfearme]

The guy has a face like a cartoon character. Weird looing Dude.

[ClownPosse]

That is the look of "FAS"

I agree. For some reason he just creeps me out to no end.

[laurelei23]

I know next to nothing about the show -- other than what I've read.

But this guy needs to change his face. He looks petulant and petty. If you want sympathy, you've got to look sympathetic.

Why do they call it The Learning Channel?

[ancientmarinader]

They are teaching us what not to do.

Once upon a time TLC actually had fascinating, and educational, shows. That was before they discovered how profitable pandering could be.

[bartonfink]

that was so long ago

[JennMostrom]

So, wait a minute, his complaints are that he had no bargaining power as a nothing individual with no talent signing onto a reality show and that the show demanded exclusivity? Shocking!

[whateveris]

Damaged his reputation for what?

[nirak]

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear too many complaints out of Jon when they had one vacation after another and all the freebies that came with it.

Jon, how about TLC buy you a large new minivan !

Load yourself, your wife, and your spawn into it, and pop in a movie !

We'll direct you to a large body of water !

Hurry !

[talkingdog]

In the end they'll be ruined by all this.

[Okieborn]

This guy needs to get a real job !!
Take Kate and your eight and just go away !!!
Your soap opera is getting very annoying !!

[Posterella]

In terms of calculating Jon's "damages," the jury will have to figure out how much of a joke and a fool he already was before TLC "damaged his reputation."

In other words, one must have a good reputation that has been damaged before filing suit for damage to said reputation, n'est ce pas?

[bgofca]

so much for him wanting a real job. He just is looking for more easy money with a lawsuit. He and his selfish ways has been what has ruined him (the same for the wife). Since he split with his wife, he has shown he has no character and is totally selfish. what a jerk.

[davism97]

To be fair we're all looking for easy money. It's human nature.

Looks like fetal alcohol syndrome.
