SEN. JAY ROCKEFELLER (D-WV): "There's a little bug inside of me which wants to get the FCC to say to FOX and to MSNBC: 'Out. Off. End. Goodbye.' It would be a big favor to political discourse; our ability to do our work here in Congress, and to the American people, to be able to talk with each other and have some faith in their government and more importantly, in their future."

Damn First Amendment!
CORRUPT BASTARD.
Hey Rocky get a life! Leave the airways alone and go play with your millions!
I dont accept the premise that Fox and MSNBC are similar entities.
Politicians who wish they could get around any portion of the First Amendment have no business in our government. That sadly includes even the "moderate" Dems, along with far left-wing socialists like Pelosi and Obama, and a few RINOs.
Senator Rockefeller (for it is He); Listen:
There’s a GIANT bug inside of me which wants to get the FCC: ‘Out. Off. End. Goodbye.’ It would be a big favor to political discourse; your ability to do our work in Congress, and to the American people,
My sentaments exactly,he is behind the New World Order,this guy belongs cleaning toilets,maybe in Russia or China
Ministry of Love attempting to take over The Ministry of Truth bookmark.
Is there anything in the bill of rights these jackasses won’t touch? (that’s a rhetorical question - we all know the answer)
Well, I have a little “bug” in me that wants to knock this
deranged moron off the face of the earth. So....who goes first?
When we said “Free Speech”, we didn’t mean for you.
Now pay your taxes and have a nice day. :)
That the one News organ which provides a balance to the rest of the socialist mouthpiece ass-puppets is hurting "public discourse" or the government's ability to be "trusted" is ludicrous, and Mr. Rockefeller is likely to find himself looking for a job (or worse).
With the Midterm vote, we just spoke as plainly as we know how, telling these scum to knock off their totalitarian crap. I guess Old Jay wants to see how much farther he can push before some really start pushing back.
Trust me, Jay; you don't really want the answer to that question. Just walk away, pus-for-brains. Make a decision you can live with.
;-\
Doesn’t matter to Rocky. He believes any media entity which doesn’t simply push the Progressive Party’s Press Releases should be silenced. He says forget the 1st amendment.
I’d accept FOX going off if ALL lamestream political opinion and news media on TV and daily newsprint form were banned. Then we’d have talk radio and the net. Well, FOX etc would all reappear on net. Then I won’t have to see CNN in the background when I’m ordering a Dunkin’ Donut, to see “The View” waiting for a doctors appointment.... won’t have elderly so subjected and victimized in hospital rooms, mental patients in their social rooms... Yeah, that would be worth it right there.
Think too families could huddle around the radio nights...
not bad.
What’ya say?!
We all know which one he wants off the air and which one doesn't bother him at all, but he had to put up some pretense of balance in his high level, senatorial assessment of the situation.

Jay obviously tuned out what the voters had to say on November 2nd.
