Until they change that, people, including many DUers, are going to refer to Fox News, whether you approve of that or not. It's like General Motors. Now, you might think that GM Vehicles are crap, but you can't change the company name to Crap Motors.

You, of course, can call Fox News whatever you wish. That does not mean that everyone must adopt your renaming campaign.

Personally, I use the real names of corporate entities. My goal is avoid any possible confusion about my references.
