When anti-American war protesters descended upon Fox News Channel's Manhattan headquarters yesterday, the No. 1 cable news network used its news zipper to fire back.
In red neon letters that crawled across the building from the Avenue of the Americas to 48th Street, the peacenistas were taunted with barbs like:
"War protester auditions here today. . . . Thanks for coming!," "How do you keep a war protester in suspense? Ignore them" and "Attention protesters: The Michael Moore Fan Club meets Thursday at a phone booth at Sixth Avenue and 50th Street."
"I thought I'd have some fun with it," Fox zipper-writer Marvin Himelfarb told the Washington Post's Howard Kurtz. "I couldn't resist."

That is priceless.
Reminds me of an old George Carlin bit where while driving he wishes he had a LED zipper sign to type in and tell off other drivers.

I have been wanting to attend one of these anti-war rallies just so I could bring a sign I thought up:

This story should be read by all Freepers who still believe that FOX News is "just like every other network" .

LMAO! One night Shepard Smith said on the air that he was hoping protesters showed up so he could have some fun.

After Neil Cavuto's splendid performance on Friday, Fox News has become #1 in my office and my home.
