Seton Motley on Glenn Beck about Mark Lloyd: ASSAULT ON CONSERVATIVE AND CHRISTIAN TALK RADIO
Originally aired on Friday August 14, 2009
Comment from poster, Yosemitest: I recommend you open the video link to the right from youtube.com in a separate window and reduce its size to view just the 9:00 minutes of video. Then you can read along on the transcript below.
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
MODERATOR: For years, the world has seen reality distorted, facts manipulated, and truth hidden.
But theres even more to the story than anyone has ever suspected.
Because no one has been able to see the whole picture, Three, Tow, One, Beck.
BECK: America, I am uh,
Im going to go on vacation, uh next week.
But when I come back, we have um,
We have quite a week of uh, shows to do for you.
Weve been working on them for a while,
and Im going to be introducing you to uh,
what I think is really going on in this country.
Methodically lay it out
and then show how to fight it.
Stand up.
Know what youre dealing with.
Ive been telling you for a while,"Something is NOT RIGHT with the direction the country is headed in, now."
I think I know what it is, and it evolves around some of these Czars.
Well now, theres something else that has been bothering me for a while
and, lo and behold, weve got a new Czar.
Radio is under attack by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). I told you before, "Pay no attention to the Fairness Doctrine. Its not going to happen."
But this man is the FCC NEW CHIEF Diversity Officer. When I say "NEW CHIEF Diversity Officer,"
I didnt know if they had an old one.
His name is Mark Lloyd.
He wants private broadcasters to pay LICENSING FEES, LICENSING FEES EQUAL TO THEIR TOTAL OPERATING COST.
And, if theyre a conservative radio station,
they could receive a CRIPPLING Two Hundred and FIFTY Million-Dollar Fine.
All that money will be used to fund Public Broadcasters, like NPR
who are competitors of these private broadcasters.
The man trying to silence FREE SPEECH IN AMERICA in Washington is Seton Motley.Comment from poster:(Glenn makes a mistake here.
The man trying to silence free speech in America is MARK LLOYD, for Obama. )
Hes the Director of Communications at the, uh, Media Research Center.
Seton, tell me a little bit about the man,
uh, what is his name, uh, our new Czar Lloyd.
MOTLEY: MARK LLOYD. He is a FORMER Senior Fellow at the GEORGE SOROS funded, John Podesta run "Center for American Progress."
Man, people remember John Podesta from the Bill Clinton days.
He was also a Chief Obama Transition Team Czar, so to speak.
Uh, Mark Lloyd as a Senior Fellow there, co-wrote a pi.., a uh, a paper there in June 2007 entitled "The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio".
Now first of all, this report is flawed
because it completely excluded Public Radio, from their survey.
BECK: Of course they did. Thats just fair. (Disgusted looks)
MOTLEY: And then they ... Thats just fair (disgust).
And because hes looking at it from a market saturation standpoint.
And as you know, in many large cities, with a, with any number of, El ..,
Los Angeles for example, has a number of, has at least three Public Broadcasting Stations on the radio.
They get more than 100 percent market share.
But they, but that doesnt count as market domination.
Its only for private ownership.
But this report is frightening on how it wants to enforce the localism,
the media diversity rules of the FCC, which are very nebulas as they are written.
And therefore, up to the enforcement interpretation of whoever is doing the enforcing.
And now, this guy Mark Lloyd is doing the enforcing and ...
BECK: Okay. How long ...
MOTLEY: People have forgot ...
BECK: Well first of all, who was our last Diversity...
what is it? Chief uh, Chief Diversity?
MOTLEY: Chief Diversity Officer.
BECK: Who was the last one at FCC?
MOTLEY: Thats an interesting question.
I have a friend whos been working there for years,
and that person doesnt recall this position ever existing before.
BECK: Huh.
MOTLEY: Most amazing. This position.
BECK: Thats interesting. Okay.
MOTLEY: This may be a new Czar, in and of itself.
BECK: Okay. So we have this guy.
He wants to force private broadcasters to fund Public Broadcasters DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR.
So, if I understand this right, help me out, he is saying
whatever the gross operating budget is for every private radio station,
every year, they will have to pay a fee equal to that, uhm, to get their license for a year.
MOTLEY: Right.
To get their license from the FCC,
and of course, that money goes to fund stations with whom they then have to compete.
BECK: Let me ask you,
MOTLEY: Uh, okay.
BECK: Let me, let me ask you this? What Company in America can take ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of their operation budget
and PAY IT AS A TAX and survive?
MOTLEY: Well, uh,
and then, and then, and then say "Okay,. Now lets start doing business."
Its impossible.
BECK: IMPOSSIBLE!
MOTLEY: Impossible. ... Its literally impossible.
BECK: Okay.
MOTLEY: Its literally impossible.
BECK: Okay. I want to take a break, and when we come back,
Theres, theres more to this, America.
MOTLEY: Much more...
BECK: There is much more to this. Radio under attack, next.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
BECK: America, I am here to announce the birth of a new Czar.
This one at the FCC.
Back again is Seton Motley of the Media Research Center.
Seton, there is a part here that I, Uh, Lloyd suggest fining conservative radio stations up to TWO HUNDERD AND FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
and giving the proceeds to the government subsidized Corporation of Public Broadcasting.
MOTLEY: Well thats isnt it.
BECK: That CANNOT be right.
MOTLEY: Thats not exactly right.
Well, thats an estimated total of what the operating cost are,
for somebody like Premiere Broadcasting, who syndicates several large talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity among them.
Uh, the fine, this is,
thats just an extrapolation of the fine weve been discussing,
which is DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR for the, uh, annual operating cost.
BECK: Okay.
MOTLEY: Just to be clear ...
BECK: Okay. So its not,
its not, its not a fine IF YOURE A CONSERVATIVE, uh, RADIO STATION?
,br> MOTLEY: No. He does have,
he has laid out a road map for liberal activist
to attack conservative ... , oh, Conservative and Christian Talk Stations, however.
BECK: Okay.
MOTLEY: Uh, you said, "Forget,"
you said, "Forget the Fairness Doctrine?"
A month after his report came out, he wrote an essay called "Forget the Fairness Doctrine."
BECK: (Shaking his head No) Im telling ya.
MOTLEY: ... In which, he lays out a way
for liberal activists to use the FCC
by threatening their licensees, if they dont, uh,
if they're politically, uh, opposed to what theyre saying on the air.
BECK: (Shaking his head NO) I think its all localism like I SAID.
This is the way theyre going to go.
MOTLEY: And media diversity... And media diversity.
BECK: Yeah. Yeah. Theyre going to take it,
theyll take those licenses
and theyll keep everybody AFRAID TO PUT ANYTHING ON THE AIR.
If they do put something on the air, somebody can challenge it.
They can take that license away from them at the end of the year
and give it to some ... ACORN-like group, or some,
you know, some, some minority group,
and then youve lost that radio station.
MOTLEY: Right, and then its...
BECK: Voices like mine, Seton, v ... voices ...
MOTLEY: Its Freddie Mac..
BECK: Go ahead.
MOTLEY: Its Freddie Mac and Fanny Mae for the radio industry, is what it is.
BECK: (Sigh) First of all, how long before you think this could come to fruition?
Hes there.
He, uh, doesnt have to be confirmed or anything.
Hes there. Its happened.
MOTLEY: He, He started work on July 29th, unless Im mistaken.
Yes, hes, he uh,
he stands waiting to take their calls.
However, theres a,
theres a Supreme Court decision in the Nineties called the "Ateran Decision"which said you cant, you couldnt set aside, uh, contracts for minority business owners. And now, thats being looked at
as applicable to setting aside licenses for minority broadcast stations.
So hes going to have to go into 'research mode' to overcome the Supreme Court, uh, law
thats been set against doing this
strictly based on racial decisions.
So hes got a little bit of work to do.
BECK: Okay.
MOTLEY: But believe me, dont, ...
BECK: Oh no...
MOTLEY: Dont, dont think that hes not working on it.
BECK: Oh no, theyll,
I mean theyll uh, theyll get this done.
Broadcasters like me,
I mean if you take ..
you know, Rush makes ... a bazillion dollars a year.
Premiere would have to step to the plate and say, "Okay, you pay Rush a bazillion dollars a year, AND
you pay the Federal Government that same bazillion dollars."
With my salary, then its like a bazillion and ten dollars.
Uh, and uh,
so then you would to,
you, they would have to,
that would WIPE those people out.
Theres just no way they could ever do it. So ...
MOTLEY: Its an ..
BECK: MOTLEY: Its an, its an assault on,
its an assault on the radio industry
to affect an ideological outcome.
BECK: What happens to free...
MOTLEY: Thats it.
BECK: What happens to FREE SPEECH in America?
MOTLEY: Thats IRRELEVANT to these people.
BECK: Is this, uh,
do you know anything about this guy?
Is he a uhm, ... Socialist, Marxist?
What, what is his ideals?
Uh, I got to, uhm ...
MOTLEY: Well .. he is definitely...
BECK: I tell you what.
Im being told were out of time.
May I have you back, Id like to cover this when we come back, Im going on vacation next week,
the week after?
Im going to show you, America, what is, what is coming.
And Id like for you to do some more research,
and Id like to have you back.
Is that possible?
MOTLEY: (Shaking his head YES) Id ... , Id love it.
Thank you.
Yes.
BECK: Okay, thank you,
thank you very much.
Uhm, America, ...
Dont ... dont miss it.
Im going to be back a week from Monday.
Uhm, dont miss it.
Please tell all of your friends.
Join us the week I return for the whole week.
PLEASE, dont miss it.
Ill be back in a second.

Well, thank you very much, Mr Seton Motley,
and you too, Mr. Glenn Beck.
Now we know
what the Democrats NATIONAL SOLIASTS' other hand is up to.
Compare and contrast.
"No one will fully comprehend
the historical implications and strategy of fascist corporativism
except the true FASCIST manipulator
or the researcher
who is able to slash through the smoke screens
and disguises the fascists set up."
George Jackson, June 21, 1971
Why do you think Obama wants a UNIVERSAL CITIZEN SERVICE?
It's a way around
UNIVERSAL CITIZEN SERVICE wouldn't fall under those laws, hence they could round up and kill United States Citizens.
"Operation Garden Plot.
Think it couldn't happen?
To: Yosemitest
It is quite obvious why the communists are trying to get Glenn Beck off the air with their organized boycott.
How can we save talk radio from this communist takeover? At this point, since they are bypassing the legislature, it pretty much has to be stopped through the courts.

Sounds like dialog taken directly out of Atlas Shrugged... Was it Wesley Mooch? Don't have the book handy...
BECK: Okay. So we have this guy.
He wants to force private broadcasters to fund Public Broadcasters DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR.
So, if I understand this right, help me out, he is saying
whatever the gross operating budget is for every private radio station,
every year, they will have to pay a fee equal to that, uhm, to get their license for a year.
MOTLEY: Right.
To get their license from the FCC,
and of course, that money goes to fund stations with whom they then have to compete.
BECK: Let me ask you,
MOTLEY: Uh, okay.
BECK: Let me, let me ask you this?
What Company in America can take ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of their operation budget
and PAY IT AS A TAX and survive?
MOTLEY: Well, uh,
and then, and then, and then say
“Okay,. Now lets start doing business.”
Its impossible.

I don't have faith in the courts anymore, either.
There
WILL come a time, when we have to use the guns and ammo we've purchased. I don't think that time is too far off.

If the FCC came in and took a local favorite station and turned it over to a minority, that station would probably be lying in a pile of dust or ashes ASAP.

Very close...
I just re-read the book...
I have been on a recycle mode over the last year or so...I go thru some of my favorites more and more often...
- Atlas Shrugged
- Unintended Consequences
- Matt Bracken’s (Enemies trilogy)
- Rawles (Patriot)
- Jeff Head’s novels
- I snuck in Mark Levin’s new book as well
- Alas Babylon (I read it the first time when I was 12 yrs old; yeah so my Dad was a genuis, he made me read it)
Maybe it appears I’m driving my blood pressure up when I read these things, but I find myself sleeping better, I am a bit more confident that in the end we will prevail...
I do get up in the middle of the night and post my ramblings here in this website, but it makes me feel better...And if anyone dissagrees with me or tells me I am wrong...No big deal, I appreciate the corrections...
If we lost our conservative talk radio, and other TV programs we like to watch tomorrow, I think we’ll still be ok...We already know where we stand...We know who will be responsible for this,and for them to believe they will not be accountable for their actions...
hehehe, we can still toss them so hard onto the street that the next wannabe Obamanite will feel it...
I hope they don’t pull this trigger, because if they believe they are above reproach...Boy, will there be a lot of surprised liberal (statists) out there very soon...
To: Yosemitest
Motley was excellent...well informed, articulate.
Looking forward to his return when Glenn gets back.
To: Guenevere
Here's a little addition.

I do get up in the middle of the night and post my ramblings here in this website ... it makes me feel better...I understand - the world's getting a little more chaotic... I have checking accounts at three banks. Two out of the three have failed this year. The FDIC worked things, covered, and no one lost money - but it's a disquieting feeling. Like we're losing control of our world...
