Church settles phone-hacking suit

LONDON -- News Intl. has agreed to pay 600,000 ($951,000) in damages and costs to Welsh singer Charlotte Church and her parents to settle their phone-hacking case against the defunct News of the World newspaper. This is one of the largest settlements yet made public, which reflects the fact that Church was a teenager when her voicemail was repeatedly hacked, and the long period of time over which the offences took place. Church's case is particularly sensitive for News Corp., the U.S. parent of News Intl., because reports have emerged that Glenn Mulcaire, the private investigator who hacked her phone for the News of the World, also had the U.S. cell phone numbers of her Los Angeles agent and her NY publicist in his notes. It is not yet known whether their phones were hacked. But if such evidence emerges, it could lay News Corp. open to a wider FBI probe of its activities on U.S. soil. Speaking outside London's High Court on Monday, Church said, "What I have discovered as the litigation has gone on has sickened and disgusted me. Nothing was deemed off limits by those who pursued me and my family, just to make money for a multinational corporation." Church's case claimed that 33 articles in the News of the World were the result of journalists or investigators illegally hacking into her family's voicemails between 2002 and 2006. The newspaper used information gained to pressure Church's mother into co-operating with an article about her suicide attempt. News Intl. made a public apology as part of the settlement, half of which covers the Church family's legal costs. But Church said, "Despite the apology which the newspaper has just given, these people were prepared to go to any lengths to prevent me exposing their behavior. They are not truly sorry. They are just sorry they got caught." Contact the Variety newsroom at news@variety.com

Fanboy or Fascist?

"What the box office success of the re-released Special Editions told Hollywood is that the only way to create another global phenomenon is to make a new STAR WARS movie. 1997 was the start of the modern-day fanboy/geek culture that now runs Hollywood. Fanboy culture (Comic-Con, Harry Potter, Twilight, The Hunger Games, The Lord of the Rings, J.J. Abrams, Joss Whedon, Marvel comics, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Glee, Aint-It-Cool-News, Attack of the Show) is a groupthink mentality that claims to be democratic, what with its we-know-whats-best-because-were-fans ethic, but is really pop culture fascism. And its the fans demand (remember, fan is short for fanatic), that led to Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace - the most hyped (and possibly most reviled) blockbuster in movie history."

Kenny Rogers sues Capitol Records

Pop-country star Kenny Rogers has added his name to a growing list of heritage artists suing their labels for digital royalties with a suit filed against Capitol Records in federal court in Nashville on Monday. The action alleging breach of contract and unfair competition was lodged by attorney Richard Busch, who also filed a suit against Capitol on behalf of the estate of the Knack's drummer Bruce Gary in December (Daily Variety, Dec. 28). Like most of the other pending suits, Rogers' action reflects an appellate court decision in F.B.T. Productions' suit against Universal Music Group and Aftermath Records. That decision found that F.B.T., which produced Eminem's earliest recordings, was entitled to much higher digital royalties based on rates for masters licensed to third parties (Daily Variety, Sept. 7, 2010). However, Rogers' suit also alleges a variety of other accounting abuses by Capitol, and thus was not filed as a class action. It involves royalties for recordings made under 1975 and 1977 contracts with United Artists Records, Capitol's predecessor in interest. During this period, the singer's top-five pop hits included "Lucille," "She Believes in Me" and "Coward of the County." Action follows a 2007 audit on Capitol's books performed by Rogers. It claims that the vocalist was underpaid in excess of $400,000, and that the label failed to respond to the artist's written objections. Suit alleges that Capitol failed to pay a 50% royalty specified contractually for what the 1977 contract refers to as "non-disc records." It alleges that the label received "substantial income" from download and ringtone licenses to iTunes, eMusic, Verizon Wireless and other suppliers. It also claims that Capitol distributed free goods in foreign territories without accounting for or paying for them; failed to report record club income; wrongfully withheld foreign taxes; deducted inappropriate video costs; and failed to account for foreign broadcast income. Capitol also allegedly failed to distribute monetary awards to Rogers stemming from lawsuits against Napster, Kazaa, Grokster and other pirate sites. An EMI spokesman had no comment.
