MSNBC takes a page out of Anderson Cooper‘s book, taking shots across the bow at Fox News and Cooper’s CNN.

Fox News’ responded yesterday: “When you’ve been an embarrassment to your parent company for 10 years, it certainly never hurts to take chances.”

Open question: Is the cable news business becoming like the political campaigns they purport to cover? Or has it always been this way?
