I don't care how PC NPR is - that is IF they're NOT using my tax dollars to put out their message.

I don't think liberals would like it if Rush was put in charge of NPR and folks were fired for saying something liberal.

The airways should not be allowed to “brainwash” and lie. Ideas have to based in truth—yes, opinions are always allowed—but the left is forcing people who have opinions like Dr. Laura to be destroyed and silenced. They are trying to silence Beck and have silenced Wilders and Savage in some areas. The Constitution DEFENDS the freedom of speech no matter how obnoxious.

This control should never be allowed in a free society. The left is silencing too many people on college campuses and in the media, if they don’t like the message, no matter if it is the truth. On PC campuses they have no tolerance of Christian ideas and accept and allow obscenities and debased plays. Obscenity was never given a platform by the Founders. We saw government controlled media in action with Juan Williams. Free Press is the No.1 necessity for a free America.

Government controlled media should NEVER be allowed. It is only agitprop for the elites in government and can be used against the people. The power of the media to form ideas is very dangerous to a Republic when the elites in charge are corrupt which power tends to always do.
