A Web designer at Fox News accidentally left their site’s image directory open to the public over this past weekend. Website Fark.com found out about it and their users pursued Fox’s image archive. The result is some troubling quasi-racist images and a whole lot of indebtedness to the ‘lolcat’ aesthetic. Plus, in one case, a leering Dick Cheney.
