Ex-Hell's Angel claims FX stole his show idea

According to TMZ, a former Hell's Angel biker is suing FX, claiming the cable channel stole his idea for a show about an "outlaw motorcycle club." Chuck Zito, a biker turned actor, says that he brought the concept for a show (which would eventually become Sons of Anarchy) to FX in 1998. Apparently this guy Zito had a small role on HBO's prison drama Oz, which isn't that surprising. His publicity photo looks like a mug shot you would see on the sex-offender registry.

Zito is asking for more than $5,000,000 in damages from FX for breach of contract.

Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter fired back in a blog post, denying that Zito had anything to do with the creation of SoA and calling him a "loser" and a "delusional b****". Well, my guess is Zito's lawyers are preparing a defamation of character law suit as we speak.
