Fox v. Franken


''Fox News Network, LLC, v. Penguin Group (USA), Inc., and Alan S. Franken'' (2003 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 18693; 31 Media L. Rep. 2254) was a civil lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on August 7, 2003. Fox News Channel, the plaintiff, sought to enjoin Al Franken from using Fox's trademark phrase "fair & balanced" in the title of his then-forthcoming book, ''Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right''.〔
〕 Judge Denny Chin denied Fox's motion for injunction on August 22, and the network dropped the suit three days later.
==Background==
Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation had founded Fox News Channel in 1996, in part to counter what it contended was systemic liberal bias on the part of other U.S. news outlets. To bolster this perception, Fox used "Fair & Balanced" and "We Report. You Decide." as slogans, and obtained federal trademark registrations for each.〔U.S. trademark registration no. (2,213,427 ) (FAIR & BALANCED), registered December 22, 1998, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Trademark Application and Registration Retrieval (TARR) System. Accessed April 22, 2011.〕〔U.S. trademark registration no. (2,713,413 ) (WE REPORT. YOU DECIDE.), registered May 6, 2003, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Trademark Application and Registration Retrieval (TARR) System. Accessed April 22, 2011.〕 Critics such as FAIR〔(The Most Biased Name in News - Fox News Channel's extraordinary right-wing tilt ), FAIR, July/August 2001〕 and Media Matters for America〔( 33 internal FOX editorial memos reviewed by MMFA reveal FOX News Channel's inner workings ), Media Matters, July 14, 2004〕 have accused Fox of having a pervasive conservative bias; on many Web sites and blogs, "fair and balanced" became widely used as an ironic euphemism for perceived right-wing media bias on Fox and other media outlets.
On May 31, 2003, the cable network C-SPAN2 broadcast a panel discussion on political books that was taking place at BookExpo America, a trade show for the book publishing industry. The panel included Franken, whose ''Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them'' was scheduled for release in the autumn, and Fox News personality Bill O'Reilly, who was promoting his own book ''Who's Looking Out For You?'', which was due for release at about the same time as Franken's. Saying that he felt the need to explain why a fellow panelist's face was on the cover of a book entitled ''Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them'', Franken told a story about O'Reilly's incorrect statements that ''Inside Edition'', a show that he had formerly worked for, had won two Peabody Awards, when it in fact won a Polk Award for work conducted ''after'' O'Reilly severed his ties with the program. The two then engaged in a heated confrontation, which culminated in O'Reilly shouting "Shut up! Shut up!" after Franken interrupted him. A link to footage of the program quickly circulated among blogs, which had the effect of providing valuable publicity for Franken's upcoming book.
