from www.tmz.com – Rachel Uchitel is threatening to sue the ladies at “The View” — or at least one of them — for suggesting she’s a hooker.

Gloria Allred, lawyer for Tiger Wood’s alleged mistress #1, is pissed that Joy Behar joked on the show today, “Yeah, you-ka-tell she’s a hooker.”

Gloria says the statement was false, defamatory and highly offensive — and hurtful, too.

G.A. says Rachel is “not amused” because “she values her reputation and her reputation has been damaged…”

Gloria wants a retraction, or else.
