Franken Says He Doesn't Mind Fox Lawsuit

Franken Says He Doesn't Mind Fox Lawsuit (washingtonpost.com): "'As far as the personal attacks go,' Franken responded, 'when I read `intoxicated or deranged' and `shrill and unstable' in their complaint, I thought for a moment I was a Fox commentator.
'And by the way, a few months ago, I trademarked the word `funny.' So when Fox calls me `unfunny,' they're violating my trademark. I am seriously considering a countersuit.' "

Oh crap. Now I have to pay royalties to Franken for 'Funny' and Faux for 'Fair'. Looks like a pretty straightforward attempt at character assassination. Yes, I know, strange behaviour for Fox, although not for O'Reilly...
