This morning, radio host Bill Press brought up the recent closing of liberal station Obama 1260 when speaking with Michigan Sen. Debbie Stabenow, and talked about whether there needs to be a balance to right-wing talk on the radio dial.
Yup, those libs sure know how to get Michigan out of the dumps, eh?
If this woman wants a civil war, bring it on. I’ve had it with them.
That was my thought as I listened to Sean today.
Yup.
Airamerika-Another failed liberal business model.
And these are the idiots that run our country?
I will listen to Sean. Thanks!
That's why their attempt at competition on the AM talk radio genre continually fails. Talk radio interacts with the population. All the other "media" are a unidirectional transfer. When the audience can talk back and challenge what is being said, the weak players fall apart.

And tried to start two other liberal radio networks? No conflict of interest here, no siree, after all, she’s a Democrat.
Yes, it's an ad hominem attack, but I'm taking advantage of the "Stabenow exception" to the no ad hominem attacks rule...
What works for Rush Limbaugh works for National Public Radio too! Oh, right, I forgot. The rules don’t apply to “progressives”.
The Fairness Doctrine is a product of the liberal Democrats’ victim mentality. Like a child who’s had to lose a few of their marbles because they’ve had to play the game.
I understand the man's reasoning completely
Here's Debbie's husband's latest "family story":
When he entered, she was standing in the kitchen preparing to boil eggs for breakfast, wearing only the 'T' shirt (XXXL) that she normally slept in.
As he walked in almost awake, she turned and said softly, 'You've got to make love to me this very moment.'
His eyes lit up and thought, 'I am either still dreaming or this is going to be my lucky day.'
Not wanting to lose the moment, he embraced her and then gave it his all; right there on the kitchen floor, she being too big to get on the "good ol' kitchen table", like the original joke. (8-}
Afterwards, she said, "Thanks", and returned to the stove, her 'T' shirt (XXXL) now around her neck.
A little puzzled, he asked, 'What was that all about?'
She explained, 'The egg timer's broken.'
Stopping Obama’s new Fairness Doctrine is essential

There is some encouraging data in a new Pew media poll. It gives us strong reason to believe we can turn things around if we can stop the so- called Fairness Doctrine.
Pew found 4 groups of news consumers: those who go to all sources, 23%,
only Internet news gatherers 13%,
only old media news consumers 46%,
and the clueless who don’t care 18%.
The “newspapers only” readers dropped 7 points to 27% since 2006 which is good news.
But the really good news is: for the first time the number of both online and radio news (outlets we have an edge in) gatherers, has overtaken the newspaper readers.
Predictably young people don’t give a damn what’s happening. Regardless of old media reports, only 10% of “Youtubers” care about the news and “Smart phoners” number just 6%.
The “believability” ratings for online news is less than for old news providers which is not good, but time and demographics will change this perception.
Television news consumers are declining, but still numerous. They’re older people who will eventually die watching “antenna television” and never look elsewhere. Nevertheless, these older people are still a source of net gain support for the GOP. Old Republican votes still virtually cancelled out old Democrat votes last November.
To maintain our communications advantage, we have to build on this good news, work hard and fight off liberal efforts to pass a new Fairness Doctrine. This Orwellian named farce is designed to destroy the edge we have in the new media, and frankly that edge is all we have.
Of course having America’s ear and making our case are two different things. Voters heard our message and decided it was a pile of murky unfathomable crap. We can’t let that happen again. We need to use our voice to offer a clear conservative message as an alternative to the socialism Barack Obama will be pushing on us.
It was Benjamin Franklin who said, “We must all hang together, gentlemen…else, we shall most assuredly hang separately”
His words are true today. If we sit back and wait for others to stop the new Fairness Doctrine we will lose our voice in the public square.
Time is short and the number of other sites gathering voices for the fight is shorter....
If you have ideas for saving our voice let us hear them. Write kcoachc@gmail.com
If these hearings are held, I hope Rush will be brought in to provide expert witness testimony. He’d decimate these pompus jackasses.
will CNN and MSNBC and ABC and CBS be included in the fairness interogation?
will there be congressional hearings on the fake national guard documents?
Fairness doctrine is meaningless as THEY define it if CNN especially is not included.
Paul Begalla should be opposite Ann Coulter, however CNN would have to compensate Begalla’s microphone for his girly man screams of agony.
“Accountability” is Newspeak for suppression of free speech.
As the glow fades from the Barack Hussein Obama presidency, expect more attacks on speech and dissent. When we get another terrorist attack on American soil, we might get martial law and suspension of all Constitutional Rights-permanently. Obama is showing himself to be sensitive, brittle and emotional. Before he falls, he’ll fall apart.
