I know nothing of the laws that surround this sort of thing, so I really can't add anything to that part of this discussion (though a minor detail like that doesn't always stop me).

I have an issue with something in linked doccument. here is the quick little quote...

"Good lord. Who among the five, possibly ten percent of the American people who could recognize Franken in a lineup would think that he's affiliated with the Fox News Channel?"

I believe that's the point of Fox News' issue. If only between 5% and 10% of people know who Franken is, that may mean that the remaining 90% to 95% of the population could be fooled into thinking the book is somehow Fox News endorsed.

Not that I care honestly. The most fun I've had watching CSPAN was watching Franken give the little speach at the white house press dinner maybe 5 years back. Heck, I'm happy he is getting the free pub.
