Norris, who rose to fame in the 1970s and 1980s as the star of such films as "The Delta Force" and "Missing in Action," says the book's title would mislead readers into thinking the facts were true.

Translation: I wouldn't mind having another million bucks

Not saying I'll argue with him. He basically has the case. I am saying however that he's an asshole for suing over something that makes him much cooler than he is.

Most of those facts are public domain facts submitted anonymously to a single site. Why anyone would put a bunch of them in book form is beyond me.

You don't see how someone could make money doing that?

There are plenty of books out there that compile things that are otherwise free to view online. Its not new at all.

Although not submitted facts, Penny Arcade or Megatokyo come to mind.

The Trial of Col. Sweeto by PBF comics was so worth the 15 bucks that got refunded.

Honestly the unreleased sequel to Check Shots was a buy in itself.

In those cases, they were published from material from that author, but in the case of the Chuck Norris book, they were compiled from anonymous facts that the author in all likelihood had no part in their creation.

Well, it's one thing if a (presumably) friend makes jokes about you and another if someone makes a book full of them, you know.

Well, to make money. Why anyone would buy a book of public domain facts bunched together into a book is beyond me.
