The framework for the attempt by Democrats to silence political opposition is already in place in what the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) calls localism, a scheme set up in the form of local “community boards” that will decide whether or not your local broadcast station is meeting the standards required to review and renew their broadcast licenses every two to four years.

This might be a hill we have to fight on. If they push localism, we need to take over those boards or at least get enough people on them to make them ineffective.

Karl, it's no longer an "if"--go take a look at the FCC localism link in the article. This is now a "when."
