Defamer: Method Man Fights One Of His Writers?: "Method then allegedly either punched the writer or grabbed the writer's head and pushed."

"The writer in question was Phil Lord. He and his partner, Chris Miller, creators of Clone High, resigned after the scrap to develop shows at Fox."


E! Online News - Method Man Raps Fox: "'I'm trying to keep this show ghetto, and there's a way for it to be both ghetto and intelligent. But it's not going that way.'"

""I'm no coon," the Soul Plane star vented. "I'm being criticized by people who have never set foot in the ghetto, who have never put up a brick inside the ghetto. I'm from the ghetto. We can't all be the Cosbys. There needs to be a yin and yang as far as what is shown of black people on television. But I don't want us to be used as a scapegoat for their crusades.""
