FOX NEWS ON FACEBOOK

Uh.

Did anyone know that this is a link on facebook?

"Check out the latest news, hot video and celebrity gossip in the FOX News Group!"

...yeah. There's a FOX News Group. I learned this when I clicked on "What's next?" on my homepage after playing a really nifty procrastinating game. This isn't a student-created group. It is definately a souped-up facebook page that FOX News creates and maintains, like a webpage.

While it's pretty obvious that FOX is paying Facebook for this slot, I'm a little...turned off by it, I suppose. Can anyone advertise on Facebook? And if any news group is going to create a group, WHY FOX?! I'm sorry but I forget who is working on social networking for her thesis--have you come across this? If you haven't, you should definitely check it out.
