Spengler testified in Manhattan's State Supreme Court, where O'Donnell and "Rosie" publisher Gruner+Jahr USA are suing each other for breach of contract "That was not my intention
She told O'Donnell, "Your mother died of breast cancer
"You know what happens to people who lie," the witness quoted O'Donnell as saying She countersued for $125 million, declaring that by cutting her out of key editorial decisions, G+J had violated its contract with her
Toepfer responded via e-mail that she wanted to move into O'Donnell's office, that she would "take out the bad vibes" and said "I think you're supposed to burn sage in all the corners
Outside court, O'Donnell said she called Spengler the next morning and apologized for the cancer comment The contract says O'Donnell had control over the editorial process and the editorial staff, subject to a veto by G+J CEO Daniel Brewster a week before publication "
Spengler admitted sending an e-mail on Oct 1, 2002, to Susan Toepfer, Rosie's editor-in-chief, suggesting that "we do our own little 'ding dong the witch is dead' song and dance" to celebrate the severance of O'Donnell's relationship with G+J "

On Wednesday, O'Donnell's lawyer showed parts of the contract between his client and G+J If they keep lying, they get it again

"We interpreted it (the veto provision) as having ultimate editorial control," Brewster testified
"I'm sorry I hurt her the way I did," she said
Cindy Spengler, who was head of marketing at "Rosie" magazine, said O'Donnell made the remark after a meeting to discuss the magazine's problems Staffer Testifies on Rosie Cancer Remark
