New Idea’s Boom Year Continues As Demi Moore Sues

In case you’ve forgotten, when it comes to “two thousand and great”, the only person or thing whose annus horribilis has rivalled that of Channel Nine has been beleaguered women’s rag, New Idea. From dodgy deals to paying alleged domestic abusers to spill their guts to “accidentally” breaking Palace embargos (and that’s just the stuff that was actually in the mag, they’ve had plenty of strife behind the scenes), it hasn’t exactly been a red letter year for the mag. Well, as Queer Eye told us, all things just keep getting better, and now Demi Moore is suing New Idea after they allegedly printed photos from a private party without permission. Bonus!

In a statement of claim filed with the Federal Court last week, Moore claimed New Idea infringed her copyright over the pictures when it put them on the cover of its March 8 edition and across two pages inside the magazine.
