Fairness Doctrine

Can someone tell me why they are pushing for this again? They want to hit Talk Radio with it but I don’t get it. How can you say only the right is getting air time with the left controlling NPR, and most TV and News Papers????

This sounds like an attack on the press and or free speech to me. I don’t see how an open market place is not enough control for these folks (read the DEMS). Give it up and get out of the speech control business. Let the market make the choice, if folks don’t like a radio show they can always change the station. . . IF this does pass, I want to see 12 hours of right wing stuff on NPR to match the 12 hours of left – if it is good for them than it should be good for us too. Then we can start looking at more balanced reporting on the TV and in the papers right?

Someone please give me a good reason why they should even be talking about more government control. This is ridicules and I hope folks pay attention to the continuing power grab by the Fed and vote a few of the “More Big Government” forks out of office in November. . . .

Because they want to win, and it's easier if they can make you shut up. Otherwise, they have to use logic and persuasion, and stuff from the classes they slept through.

YA, that about covers the liberal viewpoint. . . If we can't win with logic or truth then we will change the rules. . .
