could paula deen walk away from this cleanly?well, you know, a lot of it does have to do with bubba's behavior, but she also alleges, again, that paula deen was knowledgeable about this behavior and that she, too, took part in a lot of this behavior, especially using rachael epithets. i don't think that she will just walk away from this because she also is part owner of this restaurant. this is her establishment and, in fact, paula deen hired lisa jackson. so, you know, paula deen certainly is a big part of this complaint and, again, we need to remind our viewers, these are just allegations. paula deen hasn't responded to these allegations, but she's seeking unspecified damages and so this is a civil suit filed in savannah, georgia, state court and not a good thing for paula deen. >> sunny hostin, thanks so much. >>> a fight over underwear. true. the navajo nation is suing urban outfitters. the tribe says the retailer stole its name and with it millions of dollars. we'll talk about that after a break. >>> and the prince and the o
