Associated Press: Fox has asked a federal judge to issue an order allowing the television network to continue to use “Empire” as the title of its newest hit show after a record label demanded millions of dollars over use of the word. Twentieth Century Fox Television’s lawsuit states the San Francisco-based record label Empire Distribution has sent letters demanding as much as $8 million from Fox. Empire Distribution claims the show’s title is creating confusion with its artists and the network should either pay or change the show’s title.
