The lovers' quarrel was dug up by Fox News, which as been at war with Brock and Media Matters for years over his criticism of the network's conservative voice.
Media Matters is a liberal organization that rails against the influence of conservative media.
Fox News is its most frequent target.
In a lawsuit, Brock says his former lover of 10 years, William Grey, contacted him three times after their breakup and demanded payment or he would embarrass him to his donors and report him to the IRS.
In May 2010, Brock says his lover sent an e-mail to him and his new partner James Alefantis that read: 'David, You and James pulled this same kind of sick nonsense in 2008 to try to hide your financial malfeasance. Next step is I contact all of your donors and the IRS. OK? Do you understand?
