A “Community advisory board” in Seattle or San Fransisco would be worse and more restrictive than any “Fairness Doctrine” the Feds could conjure up!

You should be, especially when they put up a straw man like the Fairness Doctrine and how they are not going to reestablish it — all to distract from the legal machinations behind the scenes (localism and new licensing rules).

I'm all for the “fairness doctrine” if it's applied across the board to all forms of media, i.e. newspapers, television, magazines, the internet, radio, and what ever other mediums out there that disperse news. Libs would be screaming censorship and rightfully so. What I can't understand is when we are only talking about radio that it's somehow not.
