Fine. Let’s just close it all down, radios for no one. The LIB stuff will fail just as it always has. We are not so desperate as to listen to the radio just ‘cause it’s there. Freakin’ morons.

“If markets cannot produce what society really cares about, like a media that reflects the true diversity and spirit of our country, then government has a legitimate role to play,” he said.

Because the tax cheating, lobbyist coddling, elitist socialist buffoons in government reflect that 'diversity' and 'spirit' so damn well...of course. Are you kidding me?

““If markets cannot produce what society really cares about,..”

The mantra of every Marxist.

“All one needs to do is look at the nation’s ailing financial sector to understand that you cannot just proceed pell-mell in the happy notion that markets will solve all problems,” Copps declared.

1. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are not "markets"; they are government entities designed to transfer mortgage risk to taxpayers. 2. Markets don't exist to solve problems or meet needs, but to exchange value and generate wealth. 3. The "airwaves" are not publicly-owned, but licensed. Public "ownership" of anything results in rationing, poor management, and bad quality; ask any ex-Communist. Too bad Obama's administration is not staffed by any ex-Communists.

We already have that, it’s called changing the channel. It’s not our fault that their moonbats won’t listen to NPR and others.

You want more diversity in broadcasting? Create more licensed channels for it!

If you don't do that, you are actually trying to decrease diversity.

This multi-culturalism and diversity push is getting out of hand. So, we’re not allowed to listen to someone who dissents unless we also listen to someone who toes the party line? What crap is that? I don’t want to listen to communists, because what they say is inherently bad. Will we see a situation where we have to look at porn in order to also look at a work of classical art? That’s where we’re heading.
