Scratch a liberal and you get a red faced screaming communist.

“And of course they have the right to turn it off. But that’s not good enough either."

Sure it is! I like Air America....when it's turned off!

[Gunder]

Funny how the Left's response to conservatives who complain about too much sex on TV/movies is to "just turn it off." But the same doesn't apply here.

"New York Democratic representative Louise Slaughter, ..., “a waste of good broadcast time, and a waste of our airwaves.”

'Finally, in early 2005, an online petition drive called for Americans to “renew the Fairness Doctrine.” The imbalance favoring conservative media voices, especially in talk radio, the petition argued, “results in issues of public importance receiving little or no attention, while others are presented in a manner not conducive to listeners’ receiving the facts and range of opinions necessary to make informed decisions.”'

And, I am willing to bet that if you asked these same folks who wish to have this "Fairness Doctrine" instituted, they would have a freaking cow if we would apply this same standard to teaching Creationism alongside of Evolution in our schools!

If they even came close to getting this through they would see a firestorm like they never imagined. Talk radio is to entrenched now, not to mention the Internet forums.

[right right]

thats when you see armed revolt and vigilantes .........

says that Right-ruled radio is a grave threat to American freedoms, “a waste of good broadcast time, and a waste of our airwaves.”

It's just a ruse - Jesse Jackson style shakedown to extort more tax dollars for NPR.

Had the libs been around in 1776 Samual Adams and Thomas Paine would have had to give equal time to the Brittish.

They can win so they cry life in not fair.

[Flifuss]

Every time I see "Bill Moyers" and "fair" in the same article, I stop reading.

[driftless]

I don't think libs know what they're getting into. I mean I know they don't. If they want "fairness", which in their twisted minds means somehow derailing conservative talk radio and FOX News, then what do they conservatives will do? Do they think that we will not demand fairness on all the presently lib-dominated alphabet network leftist propaganda-fests? The whole idea of trying to have alternate points of view on every politically-themed radio or tv program is absurd.

Can we introduce it in the universities too? And on the three broadcast networks? And in the media markets of the NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times, etc . . .

NO ONE hates the idea of Free Speech more than a Liberal...

Thier views can no longer survive in the Arena of CHOICE, and free ideas, so it MUST be MANDATED, and SUBSIDIZED...

Hitler and Stalin would have today's "Modern" Democrat...

[Tzimisce]

"Outfoxed" wasn't very fair or balanced itself.

It's also funny that she was talking to Bill Moyers on PBS - a couple of the BIGGEST lefty mouthpieces you'll find on network TV.

Funny how the American left is so upset about people talking.

[BlueNgold]

They will simply move to Sirius along with Stern if this ever passes, and FCC controlled radio will soon be a thing of the past.

These people should be thrown in jail for violating civil liberties.
