The core of the suit? A toy hamster named "Harris Faulkner," which the anchor claims not only bears her name but was designed in her professional image, "in particular tone of its complexion, the shape of its eyes, and the design of its eye makeup," reads the lawsuit. "Hasbro's manufacture, sale, and distribution of the Harris Faulkner Hamster Doll is extremely concerning and distressing to Faulkner," court documents state, also noting that Faulkner, a six-time News Emmy winner, was "extremely distressed" to have her name attached to a potential choking hazard and that the toy endangers her journalistic credibility.
