>>>No they won’t because that is NOT how the Fairness Doctrine is structured. It is designed to attack opinion.

What I meant was that if conservatives attack stations that carry liberal opinion the same way liberals intend on attacking conservative outlets, USING THE SAME DOCTRINE, liberal outlets will be forced to call the doctrine for what it is... suppression of free speech.

Every day, more than 100 million Americans are exposed to some of the most vitriolic hate speech you can find in the public arena.

THE ONLY WAY THESE PEOPLE CAN BE EXPOSED, IS TO PUT THEIR DAMNED RADIOES ON THE STINKING CHANNEL THAT THE PROGRAM IS ON!!!! THEY KNOW WHAT IS ON WHAT CHANNEL. THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!!! SO, IF THEY HEAR IT ON THE RADIO, THEY WERE TRYING TO HEAR IT!!! THEY WERE NOT INNOCENT VICTIMS!!!

You can join the fight by signing on to our Radio Action Team.

I heard Neal talking about this earlier today and I couldn't believe these yahoos really created something called the RAT.

Not that it doesn't fit. I can just imagine that when someone says something that hurts their feelings, these little RATs will be scurrying around, writing letters, making calls, and generally being pests.

You make sense in that. I want to admit something to you and to everybody here. For the first time in my life, I’m frightened of what my government may do to me. The loss of free speech is one I don’t believe our nation as a whole will recover from.

I might sound like a sorry sort, but I rely on talk radio and sites like FR for fellowship and a feeling that I’m not alone in my conservative beliefs. Wow, don’t I sound like a hate monger, racist, bigot, sexist etc... LOL.

This is part of what they want from us... fear... so we wont stand in their way. What they dont want is a fight, cause they know they will lose. So... its fight now, or fight later... fight later, and it might cost us some blood.

I heard an ad by former Attorney General Ed Meese on my local talk radio channel yesterday. He was talking about how his boss (Ronald Reagan) had killed the Fairness Doctrine during the 80’s and now the libs are thinking about bringing it back. I can not remember the name of the group, but they are already gearing up to oppose the attempt to bring back this assault on free speech.
