    Franken wins injunction hearing, big time: link (scroll down a bit...)

    Believe it or not, the best publicly available coverage I've seen of the Franken injunction so far has been from Fox (the comma infested link is here: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,95484,00.html), though it didn't show up on a Google news search...

    Fox new's law suit really was stupid.

    How they could ever claim the phrase "Fair and Balanced" as a trade mark I'll never know.

    Here's the kicker - Fox hired Dennis Miller to appear on Hannity and Colmes, and they are using this line to promote him: "It's Miller Time."

    One American in a million will watch that show. It's called the Dennis Miller Quotient.

    And, before we could even chat much about it, Fox wimps out. What a bunch of pussies.

    Won't THEY get nailed on "It's Miller Time?"

    That would be funny as hell.
