this is the thing what I hate about media they never consult with you and without any consent do this generally, I would say you must take an action against this

Dude first listen to what they have to say. If they are ready to pay a good sum, just take it and let it go. You got what you deserved. But if they **** around with you, go ahead and sue them.
