I believe Pew is the same group that ginned up that phony groundswell support for "Campaign Finance Reform" that resulted in the McCain-Feingold Act.

With this, are they trying to open the door for a revival of the Fairness Doctrine?

My thoughts exactly. Gin up some phony stats for dems to clutch in their hands while they rant from the podium.

perhaps we should reimpose a modified version of the "Fairness Doctrine" --- and that it apply ONLY to tax-payer funded broadcasts... ie. NPR and PBS.

I have told people that among Hillary's first executive orders during her presidency would be to shut down talk radio. She would do it. Don't doubt it.

We have not heard much about that lately, have we?

I have been wondering, listening to the "Big Head Ed" show - he keeps crowing about his growing number of stations - there is a tweak from time to time about this.

Today, Sen (D) Schmuck - forget his name - addressed this very issue.

No, they have not forgotten about it.

I can see it now.....if Rush gets 3 hours, then those stations have to carry 3 hours of Al Franken...etc.

They have bitched forever about Stars and Stripes carrying only the "Conservative" voice.

Gee, maybe that is by choice you nitwits.

Yep, use the court system to get your crap heard.

Typical.
