What Al Franken should do

[SoFlaJets]

with the title of his soon to be bestseller he should put an ahem between Fair and(ahem)Balanced-that'd pi$s Bill O off good and they can stick their copyright up their lying a$$es

1. If I were Al Franken

I would go to the person who has put that "We Distort, You Comply" thingy in their signature here and ask to use THAT in the title.

2. he could simply put a footnote

'not to be confused with Fox News who claim to be Fair and Balanced'

[CarlBallard]

3. But

Come on for a comedian to have to put a foot note for every joke. I mean that was implied in the title. No, I think he should keep the thing as it is. Maybe put Fair and Balanced in a bigger font or something, but otherwise not make that big a deal of it.

5. you're right

a footnote is too cumbersome.

4. A Fox News - Fair and Balanced reply

Al Franken shouldn't do a damn thing different. Who the hell does Fox News think it is, attempting to appropriate the English language? Lets hope writers, poets, publishers
artists and those who use the English language, increase their usage of the words "Fox News fair and balanced" for fair and balanced fun, and fair and balanced profit, whenever and where ever the hell they please. This latest neocon gambit ain't the ultimate in Orwellian thought control. It's just a taste of things to come.
