Journalist Sues Over Charlie Wilson’s War Scenes
A retired U.S. newscaster is suing the makers of CHARLIE WILSON’S WAR, after footage of his war reports appeared in the movie without his permission.
Ex-NBC journalist Arthur Kent claims his intellectual properly rights were violated when his coverage of the Soviet Union’s war in Afghanistan was used.
He has filed a federal lawsuit, seeking a ban on the distribution of the film, as well as unspecified damages.
