BONADUCE Is On His High Horse

(From The Hartford Courant -- By Pat Seremet)

In a slander lawsuit filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, former child actor and radio host DANNY BONADUCE accused a former KYSR-FM radio morning co-host, JAMIE WHITE, of defaming him by telling listeners he had been "higher than a kite" while on the air and had "no clue as to what is going on because he is so loaded."

Bonaduce also claims that White, who still co-hosts a morning show, speculated on air that he had been fired in July because he had become an uninsurable liability to the station. Bonaduce also claimed White was responsible for reports on the Internet WIKIPEDIA site that his relations with station co-workers were hurt by a drunken-driving arrest and in the current NATIONAL ENQUIRER that he had verbally abused his daughter while at the station.

Attempts to reach White for comment were unsuccessful.

Bonaduce, whose marital infidelities and drug history are part of the backdrop to the VH-1 reality show BREAKING BONADUCE, spent May in a Malibu rehabilitation center. But he said in the lawsuit that he was never drunk or stoned while on air and was not arrested for driving under the influence.
