Romer sues over fake site

Los Angeles schools chief Roy Romer and the school district have sued that disgruntled ex-student who posted gay pornography on a website and claimed it was connected to Romer. As reported here early this month, David Grant obtained an Internet domain in Romer's name and threatened to post porn unless Romer sided with him on a workers compensation claim.
