font awesome content coming as blank for IE7

Browser: My application renders as IE7 Mode(Document Mode)

I have a similar requirement as Deka87 had for Use font awesome icon as css content. Now, when I implement the solution given by Mr. Alien I get a weired problem.

CSS Class:

.listing th.sort-col-d{
    font-family: FontAwesome;
    content: "\f0dd";
}

This when rendered in browser, makes the content=" ". Screenshot

enter image description here

When I check my network tab then the font awesome request is successful and I can see the Response Body. It even changes the font for the th element.

I am not sure what could be the issue?

Quoted from the font-awesome website: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/get-started/

If you need IE7 support, you have my condolences. Really. Font Awesome 4.4.0 doesn't support IE7, but an older version does. You'll need to check out the 3.2.1 instructions for using IE7. Then go complain to whomever decided your project needs IE7 support.
