Spoiler alert: At the end of American Gangster, the movie states that the Denzel Washington character's cooperation led to the conviction of three-fourths of the drug enforcement agents in New York. Real life spoiler alert: That didn’t happen.

The falsely convicted agents are seeking damages. And apparently they’ve been damaged quite a bit:

The agents are also seeking a restraining order against further distribution of the movie, $55 million in damages and punitive damages and any profits from a box-office gross that so far has exceeded about $130 million.

American Gangster has already had some problems with its truthfulness factor. Here’s our predictive spoiler: NBC universal, the producers of the film, will give them a hefty settlement.

BACK TO BLACK On Sunday, FoxNews.com gossip Roger Friedman published what could have easily been a Clinton camp-fed item about how black celebs aren't supporting Barack Obama's campaign with donations. He listed Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison, and Denzel Washington among those who haven't followed Oprah's lead. But what about … Eddie Murphy, Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Rock, Will Smith, Forest Whitaker, Halle Berry, Angela Bassett, Camille Cosby, Tyler Perry, Tyra Banks, Phylicia Rashad, Dennis Haysbert, Tracey Edmonds, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds, Gabrielle Union, Hill Harper, Holly Robinson Peete, Jamie Foxx, Nia Long, Morgan Freeman, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Regina King, Jasmine Guy, Debra Lee, and Michael Jordan?

Reports a breathless The Great Debaters insider to Page Six:

"The Wiley team never wrote to Harvard, never debated Harvard, never beat Harvard," a knowledgable [sic] source tells Page Six. "And no Harvard administrator would have ever referred to the university as an all-white college since it had long been integrated."

In another glaring error, the black team couldn't even have called themselves victors as they did in the movie because blacks were not truly considered part of college debating circles until after World War II.

You're kidding! SCANDAL! It's as if producers should be red in the face — unless, of course, they (and stars like Denzel Washington) were upfront and on-record about this all along. And these shocking revelations hadn't been reported elsewhere much earlier. Is a MGM-Weinstein movie – that is, a non-News Corp. studio movie – that inviting for an attack?
