Karma is a Wacko

Back in October I commented on Jessica Seinfeld's Cookbook and it's similarities to Missy Lapine's book that was published before Seinfeld's, but didn't do as well without a famous husband to get her a date with Oprah.

Shortly after, Jerry went on Letterman and did this:




...and I said (at that time) that following that interview, I hoped that Lapine sued.

Apparently, she has....and Jerry is named in the suit because:

"Seinfeld went on Letterman's show and described Lapine as "angry" and "hysterical." He then compared her to the kind of "wackos" that had previously stalked Letterman. The comedian then added that Lapine was a "three-name woman" and "if you read history, many of the three-name people do become assassins." The complaint, an excerpt of which you'll find below, adds that Seinfeld also described Lapine as a "nutjob" in a second television interview."

I'm surprised that Jerry dismissed her the way that he did.
He, of all people should know better.
