Comic sues Jews for Jesus

CNN gets the prize for the most misleading headline title so far this year. Reading it initially, I thought we were looking at another ridiculous lawsuit, where the comic was sueing Jews on behalf of Jesus (presumably coz of the crucifiction and all that).

It turns out however, that there is a group called Jews For Jesus, who apparently practice as Jews, but believe Jesus is the Messiah (sounds like a whole lot of contradictory issues there, but who am I to tell). They created a pamphlet that had the likeness of sueing comedian on them, and he wants it removed and the pamphlets destroyed. So, in reality, a crap story that I got dragged into by a misleading headline. Don't you just hate that?
