Score one for FOX Network

I'm not a great fan of the FOX Network, though I think Special Report with Brit Hume is one of the two best news shows on TV these days. However, FOX and its owner, Rupert Murdoch, scored major points with me when Murdoch had one of his other holdings pay to provide the American Forces Network access to broadcasts of Team USA and all quarter-, semi-, and final games. The AFN has no budget for sports broadcasting, which is provided free by the US sports leagues. The Swiss, owners of the broadcast rights, on the other hand refused to drop their demand for money.

FOX 1, Swiss broadcasters 0.  GOOOOOAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
