CNN has: The court also upheld restrictions on political ads in the weeks before an election. The television and radio ads often feature harsh attacks by one politician against another or by groups running commercials against candidates. VERY BAD NEWS. Unfreaking believable.Just keep in mind that this cannot stop New Media: Talk radio, the net, etc. This ruling will make them more powerful than ever, as the "mainstream" media starts to baldfacedly shill for the RATS and the public revolts as a result. It worked after the Wellstone memori-rally, it'll work in 2004.
We still need to agitate to get the law REPEALED, however.

It's going to be the liberal broadcast networks versus talk radio. Parties have been cut out of the process. Hard money is king.

I think it's time to buy one of the big three networks. A little help from some of you stock market gurus. How many shares of NBC, ABC, or CBS would have to be bought to have such a huge impact that the news programming would be forced to change to a conservative slant, thereby passing the no ad rules.
If church groups, constitutional groups, free republic and conservative groups suggest their members buy 100 shares of one stock and then gave proxies to a group interested in taking over ABC, can that be done?
If so, here is a way to get aroungd the media bias and the unSupreme court.
