I’ve been wondering if we should try the tack of making it clear that if the “ShutUpTheOppositionIfWeCan’tWinInTheCourtOfPublicOpinion” Doctrine passes, we WILL be demanding equal time for each and every slanted newscast that project the editorial bias and left-wiong propaganda the slimeballs at the MSM networks call “news”.

They've got that angle covered. See, radio is broadcast over "public airwaves", and therefore regulated under the FCC. Cable TV and satellite radio are not, being directly subscribed to. Therefore Howeird Stern can verbally masturbate and Chrissy Matthews can propagandize at will. Isn't that convenient?

I was thinking of broadcast news on NBCABCCBSPBS.

Intesting point, though. If this passes, you might see sales of satellite radios go through the roof if people have to go there for the truth. I might want to check out some stock prices...
