Fox v. Franken
Oral arguments are scheduled for tomorrow in a copyright infringement lawsuit brought by Fox News against Al Franken for his use of the phrase "fair and balanced," which Fox has copyrighted, in his book "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right." Fox is taking a tough line:
The news channel described Franken, an author and liberal commentator, as "neither a journalist nor a television news personality. He is not a well-respected voice in American politics; rather, he appears to be shrill and unstable. His views lack any serious depth or insight."
It's hardly Lawrence v. Texas, but this has the makings of a very amusing lawsuit.
