Subject: BS: Fox v. Franken: Smart Move Rupert!
Rupert Murdoch and his news personality disorder network, Fox, have sued Al Franken, in an attempt to stop publication of Franken's book ""Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right" due out next month.

Al Franken, on vacation in Europe with his family, thanked Fox for the free publicity.

The new book is said to be along the same lines as Franken's book "Rush Limbaugh is A Big Fat Idiot" (I think I got the title right).

Here is a link to a story about it:
