Magazine Publisher Sues Rosie O’Donnell
The publisher of Rosie magazine is filing a $100-million lawsuit against former talk show host Rosie O’Donnell for abruptly pulling out of their business partnership last month.
Gruner & Jahr Printing & Publishing Co. said in court papers that O’Donnell’s decision to quit Rosie magazine has or will cost it “in excess of $100 million in damages.” The filing claims that O’Donnell, who announced Sept. 18 she was quitting the magazine, breached her contract and publicly disparaged the magazine.
O’Donnell plans to countersue, a spokeswoman said.
