“Fox To Party In CNN’s Front Yard”

cnncentersept26.jpgThe Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports: “Fox News Channel is throwing itself a 10th birthday party in Atlanta this week, right in cable news rival CNN’s front yard.

Fox, which actually turns 10 next week, plans to broadcast three shows Thursday at the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce building on the edge of Centennial Olympic Park.” CNN Center is located a short walk across the park.

FNC’s EP of news specials Thom Bird says “we’ll have this lovely view of the CNN building, and I’m sure they’ll have a lovely view of us.” He added: “I’m sure we’ll be waving at them and they’ll be waving at us and watching to see how news is done.”
