David Letterman isn't the only television personality in hot water.
Television advice guru Dr. Phil McGraw is being sued by one of his very ticked-off ex patients, who filed her suit against him in L.A. this week.
According to the papers filed, the lady in question is accusing Dr. Phil of sexual harassment, as well as "brainwashing", which she claims to have suffered while under his care. She is alleging that the folksy psychotherapist prevented her from sleeping, mentally abused her, touched her inappropriately and tried to keep her in his office against her will. According to her bizarre account of what transpired when she was being treated by McGraw , she was also prohibited from leaving by his staff, as she was forced to be in a room with a strange male in his birthday suit.
If this individual has her way in court, the famous t.v. doc will be paying damages out of the ying yang to compensate her.
Wonder if Dr. Phil will do like David Letterman and discuss this thing openly on the air with his audience? The get-it-out-there-in-the-open method seems to be working positively for Dave, whose ratings have gone up since he's been publicly discussing his personal scandal.
However, Phil McGraw is no David Letterman and the accusations against him are far creepier than the ones against Letterman.
My guess is that his "mentor' Oprah will probably not be taking any of his 'phone calls for awhile.
