Sasha Baron Cohen is being sued for $110 million by one of the unwitting participants of his most recent film, Bruno. In both the film and its promotional push, the plaintiff, Ayman Abu Aita, is referred to as a “terrorist.” He claims he’s a “shopkeeper.”
This one’s tricky. It’s completely possible that Sasha painted an innocent man as a terrorist, but then again, all terrorists claim to be shopkeepers. Let’s hope he’s not, because if he is and wins the suit anyway, $110 million can buy a lot of Palestinian children to make bombs out of.
