Time for reverse censorship laws. The media needs to be forced to cover such stories.

“The media needs to be forced to cover such stories.”

Nope. You can’t do it like that.

What Murdoch discovered, after Rush basically showed the way for 10 years, was that conservatives were an UNSERVED market for news in the US.

Rush notwithstanding, conservative newsers in the US is still an UNDERSERVED market. We have Fox - that’s it - and lately that’s pretty weak magic right there. Axelrod was on with Brett Baer last night bumbling and stumbling.

Breitbart found this market too. If that’s your passion, news for conservatives, and you have a little capital, you can make a boatload of money even at this late date.

I’d love to see what Drudge lost from backing Romney. Coulter too. I don’t get it. They wouldn’t have done it if there wasn’t a buck to be made in there somewhere. Maybe they’ve seen something we haven’t.

I don’t know.

I know the answer isn’t curtailing one of my freedoms in the pursuit of ‘equity in reporting’. That’s essentially the root of the ‘fairness doctrine’ which like all other Orwellian-named bills in Congress does the opposite of what the title suggests.

I have always said that when a low-life uses a gun to shoot and either mame or kill someone, the media should be forced to report, in the article, as to whether or not the perpetrator was a member of the NRA. Can you imagine the media having to report that these murders are being committed by other than NRA members. That would get their collective panties in a bunch, would it not?
