I have no doubt that such censorship is their goal but I think Rush, for example, is just too deeply imbedded in our culture for us to tolerate such a raid on the first amendment. If the politicians on our side could not pull the plug on funding Sesame Street, imagine the firestorm if the libs went after Rush.

But you are right, the fairness doctrine is a spectre ever just over the horizon.

They are already attacking Rush, by demanding that he be taken off the FARTS (Federal Armed Forces Radio). They are trying to limit Scaife too, but have been unsuccessful so far. The problem is that the leftists see them selves as moderates, and only the right as radical. This issue could very well be an ultimate pyhrric victory, a true case for being careful what you ask for.
