API decided last week to take up a legal battle against Fox News Network, USA and has now finally decided where the case is to be filed.
Fox News Network broke the agreement when they did not air the Michelle Obama tape as was agreed between the two parties.
The names of the two officers attached to Fox News Network will be informed of the case against them on Thursday. While informing them, their names will also be made public following the court documents that will be filed.
During the court proceedings, Fox News Network will get an offer to compensate API hugely and be free from our demands to air the tape, or with a smaller compensation but on condition they air the tape unedited - all the 54 minutes as earlier agreed. It is important taking such action because big news outlets should not think they can ask for monopoly of a tape, or any news item and sit on it, only to decide, due to political thinking to cancel the deal already made.
Summons will be directed against the two Fox News Network employees who initiated the talks that led to the deal and they will be made personally responsible.
API regrets that this has taken long and that it has to end this way - through battling it out in the courts and yet the deal was struck in a good and friendly atmosphere and a shake of hands in New York City after the verification of the tape.

Not this s-— again!
This tape will come out right about the time I get my 13.5 million dollars (USD $13,500,000.00) from that Nigerian prince. Anyone got a credit card I can use—he’s asking for a “small processing fee”...
I’m so excited this is finally coming out!!! Not.
If I had it I would just put it up on youtube and let the world see it. I wish they did have it but calling it doubtfull is an understatement.
Ask him if he will accept State of California Income Tax Refund IOUs.
Screw that—if I won’t, I’m sure he won’t either.
Maybe it's not a hoax.
Right... they have changed their story so many times.. it is a hoax...
You forgot your sarc tag. People might think you are serious...lol. This story is dead get over it.
Make that business months...
wait a darn minute, I thought I WAS getting that money!!!!! I already sent in the processing fee and I was promised the dough!!
“During the court proceedings, Fox News Network will get an offer to compensate API hugely”
That tells me all I need to know about these morons.
FoxNews is liberal media folks, acting like they’re on our side ...
You are injecting serious comments into an API thread. No cookie for you.
I told her next time, to tell the guy the bank is willing to lend her $10K to send to him, but she needs $1500 in cash from him to open the account.
I also suggested that since she is unsure of who he is, she should get some form of verification, like a video of him having "My friend is Sylvia" tattooed on his chest in 2 inch letter format.
If there is nothing to this why would they sue? Are they that crazy or is it a publicity stunt?
You spelled that wrong - it's "d'oh!"
