Parton Sues Stern Over Altered Audio Clips?

Parton Sues Stern Over Altered Audio Clips? Dolly Parton is furious with satellite radio shock jock Howard Stern after he broadcast what he claimed was a segment from her online audiobook on his show.

The clearly-doctored audio manipulated her speaking voice to create racist and sexually vulgar comments, which Stern played to his listeners last week (06May08).

Stern and his crew joked about the audio, stating they were "shocked to hear Dolly talking like that", and the host himself called it "disgusting" - but the country star was far from amused.

The doctored tape also featured Parton apparently ridiculing Burt Reynolds, Kenny Rogers and beloved TV host Johnny Carson.

The angry singer says, "I have never been so shocked, hurt and humiliated in all my life. I cannot believe what Howard Stern has done to me. I would never have such vulgar things come out of my mouth. They have done editing or some sort of trickery to make this horrible, horrible thing."

"Please accept my apology for them and certainly know I had nothing to do with this... I just wanted you to know that I am completely devastated by this."

And Parton is keen to seek legal action against Stern and his Sirius Satellite Radio bosses, adding, "If there was ever going to be a lawsuit, it's going to be over this." (KL/WN/IG)

    Go Dolly. It is about time someone shut Stern up, or at least puts him in his place. It is one thing to show something someone actually said, but to edit it and make it seem someone said things they did not, and hurtful things, that is wrong in every way! So, go Dolly and God be with you! dw

  1. Kris Says:

    The sad thing is the audio was so OBVIOUSLY doctored that only an idiot would take what was said as really coming from Dolly. Otherwise this falls firmly under "satire", a perfectly legal practise.
    Im not defending him, it would different if it were innocent fart jokes or something, but still, as long as its obviously not meant to be a serious attack, I dont know if she has a case.
