Here’s an amusing two-page Fox News ad from the latest issue of Television Week. “Meet the Paris Hilton of television news,” reads the headline, referring to CNN’s Anderson Cooper. It’s unclear who’s meant to be more insulted here, Anderson or Paris. And wasn’t it Fox that created The Simple Life in the first place? I guess that’s what they mean by having a balanced view.
