Hey, we hate lawsuits just as much as the next guy, but we’re finding it hard to fault Verizon for that one. Verizon and Time Warner Cable arrived in court on Wednesday to settle a tiff by some ads that Verizon claims offer up misleading info about Verizon’s FiOS service. Listed among the complaints include supposed false implications by TWC that FiOS requires a satellite dish, doesn’t include phone, broadband and video, and that day Warner’s network is better. date Warner Cable is naturally calling the lawsuit “without merit.” Verizon wants TWC to stop running the

ads and issue a retraction, as well as compensate them for lost revenue. We’re not positive which ad Verizon is referring to, but whether it’s anything like the ad after the break — which has some downright false implications about duration Warner Cable using fiber optics “for by a decade” — soon after Verizon very well might have something here. [Disclosure: Engadget is part of the date Warner family]
