So far, there’s been much less focus on the “localism rule” – even though it would have a similar chilling effect on First Amendment rights.

I'm not interested in learning about the FCC. The topic was Bush's (in)actions to affect free speech.

Bush has nothing to do with the FCC, that appointment will be Obama’s, and the link you provided is erroneous as BUSH will not be appointing anyone. You are confused. The linkt to FCC that I gave you proved this...just because you aren’t interested in truth doesn’t mean you are right...sheesh.

Bush has nothing to do with the FCC,...

It's his appointee being discussed!

Unless you're into victimology.

ON FREE REPUBLIC THREAD; “OBAMA APPOINTS FAIRNESS DOCTRINE BACKER” QUOTE:

“President-elect Barack Obama has designated former Federal Communications Commissioner Henry Rivera to head the team that will select the next FCC chairman — an Obama move that bodes poorly for conservative talk radio. That’s because Rivera is widely believed to support the reinstitution of the so-called Fairness Doctrine. “

That's all and good and everything but the thread in question and the one I reference is titled:

Proposed FCC Rule a disguised 'Fairness Doctrine' and its lead sentence is: The DC Examiner has a troubling editorial today on a new rule being proposed by Bush's FCC...

What don't you understand?
Now, quit bothering me.

I even have Dr. E. to vouch for my lifelong passion to be a pagan; thwarted by God, but inclining.

An Ombudsman is born. :)

Bush does not own the FCC, nor are they his people, it is an independent agency...the person is referring to the fact that Bush is President now...but it will be Obama who appoints Riviera who will reinstate the censorship...and I’m not the one who doesn’t understand.

What’s impressive is you went there first and then cried about it, loser.

You are some piece of work, and I believe you need to see a psychiatrist because your comments are insane and make no senses.
