Be ready: The Fairness Doctrine is coming back strong if the Dems get back a solid majority anytime soon, and they get some court nominees in place at the top. Be vigilant. This is how they will go after Fox and talk radio.

It's pretty clear that the whiners knew Phil's show was in intensive care. The recent "news" items about the lack of liberal radio talk shows and TV personalities were pre-emptive plants.

You read my mind. Yes, revival of the "fairness doctrine" is liberal's only hope.
Up until Ronald Reagan, all statins had to provide "equal opportunity" for opposing viewpoints (can you imagine that now???). Ronald Reagan did away with that, and AM radio quickly started marketing those who drew audiences. Rush was one of the first.
They tried to bring it back about 6 years ago. It was nicknamed "The flush-Rush" bill. It died, but not that easy.
Ever since, libs have been losing elections.
Having government control of the airwaves, like the schools, only leads to, well, more government control.
