Will Forte of Saturday Night Live fame and the spoof movie MacGruber has filed suit against the world famous blog Backyard MacGyver for use of his likeness on the website. Forte says that his serious theatrical character MacGruber is being "mocked and ridiculed" by the BackYard MacGyver blog and is seeking compensitory and punitive damages for the harm that the blog has done to movie ticket sales. Sources close to the BackYard MacGyver blog said that they are hiring world famous attorney Gerry Spence to defend against the specious and frivolous action. When attempts were made to interview Backyard MacGyver he was found asleep in his tent. Whatever.
