Faux News has outsourced jobs to India

And s'hhhh they want to keep it quiet. And will Lou Dobbs report CNN has done the same? I just stumbled across this.

The U.S. sales director for one of India's top computer services providers said his company has won business from customers such as Walt Disney Co., Time Warner's CNN and the Fox division of News Corp. -- none of which want public disclosure.

2. I got a better word

Publicity. Boycotts are only useful in so far as they drum up publicity. Specifically, negative publicity

4. Lou Dobbs says he wants to be notified of any American Co.'s shipping jobs

overseas. Seems like this would be a test to see if he will report it.

5. Well then add IBM to the list

"I.B.M. has crafted plans to send thousands of upscale jobs from the U.S. to lower-paid workers in China, India and elsewhere. Anyone who doesn't believe this is the wave of the future should listen to comments made last spring by an I.B.M. executive named Harry Newman:

'I think probably the biggest impact to employee relations and to the H.R. field is this concept of globalization. It is rapidly accelerating, and it means shifting a lot of jobs, opening a lot of locations in places we had never dreamt of before, going where there's low-cost labor, low-cost competition, shifting jobs offshore.'"
