Arnie and British journalist settle 'groping' case

Hollywood star-turned California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has settled a libel lawsuit with a British journalist who claimed she was groped by him during an interview and later defamed by his aides during his 2003 campaign.

“The parties are content to put this matter behind them and are pleased that this legal dispute has now been settled,” said a two-sentence statement issued jointly in London by lawyers for Schwarzenegger and the journalist, Anna Richardson.
