Phillip Busch VS, Pat Roberson...... the plaintiff in a federal lawsuit against Pat Robertson says the televangelist threatened his life and that of his family at a legal proceeding Wednesday.Robertson has been touting his "age-defying" weight-loss shake for five years on TV. You know the man can leg press 1000 LBS, www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d3AxvKCH7U
Busch, a Texas bodybuilder, contacted the show in 2005, saying he had slimmed down from 400 to 200 pounds drinking the shake. Busch, The 700 club showed his before-and-after photos in a promotional spot. Robertson has recently licensed his shake for commercial distribution by a nationwide health-food chain in a ready-to-mix powdered formula. He sued Robertson in September 2005, alleging that the broadcaster used his image for a commercial purpose without compensating him.
The case is set for trial in April.
This is not the first time Robertson has been accused of threatening an adversary.
After the failure of an earlier Robertson commercial venture – a multilevel sales outlet for Bible study courses and discount coupon books – the broadcaster fired Mark Peterson, the venture's top executive. The two blamed each other for the business' failure in what became a public feud. And a leg press death threat!
