The people who run digg showed their true colors a long time ago. Spineless, they are. The fun part is that the users can call them out on their bullshit.

In this case I've got to presume News Corp is guilty once again of being a bully about free speech. This is the same network that a couple months back demanded that John McCain take an ad off the air that used a clip from a Fox News-sponsored and broadcast debate. He said something about "being tied up at the time" in comparing Vietnam to Iraq. When the NY Times picked up on this, Fox News went ahead and demanded all candidates at the debate not use it's content.... unless, it turns out, if your name is Rudy Giuliani, who to this day has footage of the debate on his site. Not to mention the apparent demanding Judith Regan to lie about having relations with Bernie Kerik.... News Corp is expert at these bullying tactics and no doubt Digg's lawyers were left squirming. Fox News should be banned from the media and left to accurately define itself as a PAC of delinquent, quasi-conservative talking heads. It would be nice to hear what Kevin Rose has to say about this incident.

BWAHAHAHA! Whoever made this FoxNewsPorn site rules! I remember one time on the Daily Show they showed some Spring Break clip that Fox News repeated like 50 times in a row. Oh, and who could forget the footage of the hot blonde high school teacher in her lingerie, the one that got caught with one of her students. They played that clip non-stop. haha Fuck News Corp, what hypocrites....
