More Reasons to Be Appalled By Fox News

Apparently, Fox News leases billboard space right outside CNN headquarters in Atlanta. It uses the space to post jabs at CNN, such as trumpeting its stealing away of Greta Van Susteren (a O.J.-trial talking head until CNN offered her a job several years ago), to poke fun at CNN's ratings and once to accuse the network of lacking patriotism during the Iraq war.

Right now, they're throwing a hissy fit because there's been some sort of hitch in the posting of their latest message in which they claim victory over CNN, declare their love for CNN's home city and post an e-mail address for resumes from current CNN staff. The billboard's ownership has changed hands and now no one's quite sure why the message hasn't gone up. Fox, of course, blames CNN.

And this is what America wants for their news source? As much as it makes all too much sense, it's disgusting.
