Did Taylor Sheridan steal Yellowstone from a 2016 pitch?
Taylor Sheridan faces a copyright lawsuit alleging he took the concept for "Yellowstone" from Lauren J. Salkin's 2016 pitch "Sovereign Nation," with claimed similarities including a tribal casino as a hub of political power, disputes over reservation boundary expansion, and matching land-development plot elements [1]. This is a legal accusation rather than a settled fact, so whether he actually did so hasn't been established.
