Wonder what made him change his mind about these "Facts" cause he came off as finding them funny and not having a problem with them before like.. months ago when he appeared on some TV program.
Just fucking read it, it says.
He's sueing because they made a commercial product off his likeness and name without authorization.
What kinda person has a fit about fiction. Just cause a website says it's "Facts" doesn't mean anything. The most those people can whine about is that that website is full of Libel info.
I can't find the article now, but the news I read about this indicated that the author of this book has asked Chuck Norris' permission to publish the book, Chuck said no, and the guy went ahead and did it anyway. Also there's a big difference between running a website with jokes related to a person's identity, and actually publishing a book to make money off a person's identity without their express permission.
I don't remember reading that in there exactly, I read something about "saying things which may be racist" or the whatnot.
"Defendants have misappropriated and exploited Mr. Norris's name and likeness without authorization for their own commercial profit," said the lawsuit.
Learn to read.
