Chuck Norris Is Suing CBS Over Owed Money From WALKER TEXAS RANGER
Get those Chuck Norris jokes out of the brain bank and out into the world once more, as the actor is going to war with CBS. Deadline reports Norris is suing CBS for $30 million in profits after what he alleges to be a breach-of-contract. The lawsuit alleges CBS has routinely failed to pay profits to Norris from the show Walker Texas Ranger, and has blatantly orchestrated private deals with third parties that ensure Norris makes as little as possible from the deals.
I don't know enough about the law to say if CBS can legally do that or not, but Norris is certainly within his rights to sue in either case. By the way, Walker Texas Ranger has aired in 100 countries if you can believe that. I guess the eyes of the ranger exist outside the great state of Texas after all!
