Lies (And the Lying Liars Who Tell Them): A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right

New York: Dutton, 2003. First Edition. First Printing. 379, illus., footnotes, sources and notes, endnotes. Former Saturday Night Live writer Al Franken directs his satiric skills at two large targets: the George W. Bush administration and the right-wing media embodied by Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, and others. Franken was taken very seriously by Fox News Channel, which initiated a lawsuit just prior to publication, claiming copyright infringement because his subtitle borrows their "fair and balanced" phrase. The judge in the cse declared the suit to be wholly without merit, and Fox News subsequently dropped its suit. Condition: very good, very good.

Keywords: Political Satire, Politics & Govt., George W. Bush, Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, Terrorism, Paul Wellstone, Fox News, Jerry Falwell
