What about the Internet? Most get their information from the Internet. I listen to RUSH and LEVIN on the Internet. Is Zero going to control that too?

"Why would government officials want to launch such an assault on conservative talk radio when they practically have all of the rest of the media in their hip pocket? The answer is chilling. Only tyrannical governments wish to silence the voices of dissent and totally dominate communications and media. Make no mistake about this, my friends. This is an open assault on free speech, the First Amendment, and private enterprise.”

The best thing for us, for this kind of nonsense to proceed full steam ahead. I welcome it.

First, this kind of unAmerican activity will continue to get people motivated in time for 2010 elections. If they pull an ACORN on us at those elections, it will be obvious and the anger will, hopefully, finally boil over.

Second, I have confidence that Rush, Sean, Glenn have contingency plans. They may at some point be forced off AM, but I see no possibility for their voices to be silenced. And, if forced off, they will be stronger after than before. Can anyone say Radio Free America or Voice of America in reverse?

This is totally unconstitutional. An outright assault on our first amendment right to free speech. IF he gets away with this, he will do the second amendment right the same way! That boy is going to start a revolution. He's not paying attention to the anger in America, and it's NOT all about health care.

Radio free Obama...

Frankly it’s a very stupid move that could only be made by a group (the Administration) that lives in an echo chamber but hears nothing from outside.

Maybe they forgot about Rush’s ebay sale of the Reid letter ?

There may come a time that conservative radio and Fox News will regret that they were so silent about Obama’s natural born status.

The man is likely in the White House illegitimately. If he were in prison he wouldn't be able to shut down conservative programing.

Obama recently appointed to the FCC an officer that we have never had before in America. It is called the 'Chief Diversity Officer,' the goal of which is to make sure that on radio there is a broad diversity of opinion.

No links. No further investigation. No background. Nothing to back it up.

Look, I'm not a fan of hysteria by press release and newspaper article when the left does it. I have to stay consistent.

I don't doubt this is what the left wants, that's what leftists do by nature....suppress opinion and censor. But I'm not sure this is the BIG ONE.
