Her LQ suffered another jolt last week when Cindy Spengler, G+J's chief marketing officer, testified that O'Donnell had called her a liar and added, "Liars get cancer." (Spengler is a breast-cancer survivor; Rosie later confirmed and apologized for the slur.) By the end, G+J had to be wondering, Why didn't we just start a magazine called Leona...
