CNN and Fox News personalities have been trading phone numbers.

CNN Tucker Carlson gave out Fox News's Washington bureau phone number on
the air.  Fox New retaliated by posting Carlson's unlisted home number
on its Web site.  The result was both sides have been innundated with many
phone calls (some might even describe it as harrasment).

No word if either Fox News or CNN violated Verizon's telephone
acceptable use policies or if Verizon will terminate both CNN
and Fox News' telephone privileges.
