Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
The UK's Evening Standard newspaper claimed that parts of one of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey's shows were faked. Specifically, they made accusations that the restaurant kitchens pictured on Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares were actually normal kitchens, up to code, that were made to look like the "health hazards" that Ramsay said they were. The paper also speculated that Ramsey had resorted to other tricks to make the kitchens he was supposed to be renovating appear to be poorly run.
Ramsey sued, accusing the paper of libel and falsely defaming him. And he won.
With their claims proven to be untrue in a court of law, the Standard has agreed to pay $138,000 to Ramsey in damages and to publish a public apology in the paper. Ramsey said, "I won't let people write anything they want to about me. Even I have limits and on this occasion the line was crossed."
