ABC says the report, which reportedly will probe ties between contestants and judges, will "explore explosive claims about behind-the-scenes activities at the show."

Abdul's lawyer sent a letter to ABC News threatening legal action, the New York Post said Wednesday.

The finale for the fourth season of "American Idol" is set for May 24th.

Fox is a division of News Corp., which also owns the New York Post.
