Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Period.

"Localism" is bogus concept and is nothing less than censorship. I travel around a lot and listen to a lot of radio. There is plenty of local-content out there -- with the possible exception of some of those all-music stations that operate off a satellite and maybe NPR.

I am amazed at how few people that I talk to have any awareness at all about this issue. But the way I look at it, if we lose this one, we lose the country.
