Rush should have lots more to say about the FCC czar and fetters. I hope.

. . . the left realizes that any effort to resurrect the Fairness Doctrine . . . could be challenged as a violation of the First Amendment . . . [instead they will try] exploiting . . . [FCC] localism regulations [that stations] must "serve the interests" of the communities in their respective listening areas . . . [and interest is defined solely] in terms of "diversity . . . .
here

I remember all the decades of the Fairness Doctrine. I remember when one hour a week of Buckley's Firing Line on PBS was all the fairness conservative opinion needed.

If the left ever gets away with doing that again it's time to -- like the hundreds of thousands of citizens past -- defend free speech against oppressors with blood.. our free speech, their blood.
