anyone go to the websites and notice the icon in their address bar is some undecipherable thing for Fox and what looks to be a boob for MSNBC?

Fox is spotlights and MSNBC is the peacock.

The favicons? MSNBC's is the NBC peacock logo. Fox News' is their logo with no "Fox News" text in it (which I don't really understand...why keep the red bar if it's not framing anything, and the spotlights being off-center now make no sense if they also serve no purpose as a framing device).

Sorry. Graphic design nerd. Fox's site has always been butt-ugly (though it's a lot better nowadays than in years past).

Ok then it's just me, cause MSNBC's logo for the favicon is definately a boob. I was hoping that they got hacked :)

This is what I see. If that's a boob, it's got some sort of weird condition that needs to be seen about.

In more ways than one.

Edit: seriouspost

Weirdly enough, I've seen that "boob" favicon somewhere else before, but I can't remember where. It was someone's blog that focused on spam fighting. I think it's supposed to be some kind of radar screen, not a boob.

Edit 2:

Hah! Found it. It was the favicon for chris-linfoot.net. It's offline now, but web.archive.org still has it.

Tell me that's not a boob.
