"American Idol" creator Simon Fuller has sued the Fox television network seeking credits and monetary fees for the upcoming U.S. version of TV talent show, "The X Factor."
The breach of contract lawsuit, which became public on Wednesday, alleges that Fox, part of the News Corp media empire, and producers FremantleMedia North America, a unit of Bertelsmann AG, have refused to honor a 2005 contract granting Fuller an executive producer credit and fees for the U.S. version of "The X Factor."
