"Skank" not a libelous term


Curtis Friday, April 19, 2002 at 12:57 PM

According to Rueters, a California state appeals court has ruled it is not libel to call someone a "skank" or even a "big skank" on the radio -- describing the word as "a derogatory slang term of recent vintage that has no generally recognized meaning."

Who was the skank in question?  Jennifer Seelig, a contenstant on the Fox show "Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire".
