Al Franken kicks Fox News butt!!

[Catmando]

A judge laughed Fox News' "trademark-infringement' suit out of court(Al used "Fair and Balanced" in the title of his new book) Lies; and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them; A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right, which is now #1 on amazon.com's book list. "Obnoxus Bill" O'Reilly was the impetus behind this stupid suit.
You GO, Al!!

Al Franken In Sorry State
Comedian apologizes to Ashcroft for "imprudent attempt at satire"
AUGUST 20--Comedian Al Franken last month wrote an apology letter to Attorney General John Ashcroft, admitting that he was not truthful when he previously sought Ashcroft's views on abstinence.
In June, Franken wrote to Ashcroft seeking the AG's story for "Savin' It," which the performer described as a book "about abstinence programs in our public schools." On its face, the letter (which you'll find below) reads like a joke, with Franken advising Ashcroft to "share a moment when you were tempted to have sex, but were able to overcome your urges through willpower and strength of character. Be funny!" Franken also asked, "Did a young woman ever think you were homosexual just because you wouldn't have sex with her? Be serious!"
Franken's missive, written on letterhead from Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, claimed that he had already received abstinence stories from other prominent Republicans, including Condoleezza Rice and Senator Rick Santorum. However, in his July 11 apology, Franken admitted that he had not received those abstinence stories and called his solicitation to Ashcroft, "an imprudent attempt at satire."
The comedian also apologized for writing on Harvard letterhead: "My biggest regret is sending the letter on Shorenstein Center stationery. I can assure you that no one at the Shorenstein Center had knowledge of the letter before I sent it." Franken, who was a fellow at the Kennedy School this spring, added, "I am very embarrassed to have put them in this awkward and difficult position, and I ask you not to hold this against the Center, the Kennedy School, or Harvard in general."
What a good hero for you to have. Oh, wait, there is more...

Al ain't stupid, thats for sure. He had to know that title would get him in trouble with Fox, and look at all the free advertising he got out of it. Had he lost the suit, I bet book sales would be even higher.
As for the content of the book, probably just more liberal PC whining.

What does the Ashcroft thing have to do with the Fox thing??? You need to "edumacate" YOURSELF a little.
Besides, Franken apologized to the school, NOT Asshole Ashcroft.

As to your last post. It goes to the character of AL. I think Fox was nuts for filing the suit. But come on, Go Al?

Catmando, you're a pathetic left wing loser who grasps at anything that can even remotely look like a "win" over the conservatives.
Rooting for Al Franken against Fox is like rooting for the pinata at a birthday party.
Hey Cat-boy, your girl Hillary will run for president in '08 maybe you can contribute your nutsack since you don't have any use for it.
