What's Worse than the Fairness Doctrine?

[dirtyshortsPU]

Libs, ya gotta hate'm

[connn2]

I reckon the Dems just bring up the Fairness Doctrine every now and then to give Fox News and right wing radio the shits. I don't think it's going to happen, too many people against it. The fact is Americans like being lied to, "Weapons of Mass Destruction" remember. Obama might have won, but still, over 40 million Americans voted for the Republicans regardless of the facts.

[whathoney73]

I have a great idea. Why don't we listen to and say what ever the hell we want to just as the first amendment guarantees us that right.

[mainestategop]

Well, because liberals hate freedom and they only want people to hear what they say. Because they are stupid and the only way to believe anything they say is to force them to. Liberalism is fascism.

[dicksatan]

@mainestategop

Your opinion shows an

utter lack of knowledge of what Fascism IS, much less any evidence

to bolster your thought that liberals hate freedom.

You're excellent at spelling.

[mainestategop]

Kingprogressive like all real liberals are the ones filled with hate. To him, acting bad means not being a deviant.

[gnome33]

kingprogressive You would make any communist leader proud with Your words, so why dont You join them.

[TsangBokyan]

true that

[ColumbiaCowboy]

Can't refute a thing they say, so you just call them Commies.

This dispicable, unAmerican lie destroyed a lot of lives 50 years ago, Senator McCarthy resigned and died in absolute disgrace, why on EARTH is the radical right reviving his failed sleazy tactics?

[suckmejagon]

Republicans, which represent whats still good in America need to stand up and fight the liberal filth-o-crats who are trying to turn America into a socialist dictatorship.

[ColumbiaCowboy]

Lie. There's nothing remotely Socialist about the Democrats, what you call "good in America" is still an illegal war, tax breaks for millionaires while our schools are underfunded and millions have no health care, letting polluters foul the environment, bigotry and discrimination...there's nothing good or American about this.

[KingProgressive]

Because these hate radio stations are corrupting the spirits of otherwise rational people

Most people think that since effects of the radio jocks are so intangible that it isnt any wrong with what they're doing but what they're

 doing is inciting that spirit within ppl that cause humans to act bad

Its this spirit which lies within man that causes all the evil on earth from Alqeada to the taliban

you can destroy all the guns and tanks but as long as the spirit is in takt its all futile

[Conservative1001BG]

"Because these hate radio stations are corrupting the spirits of otherwise rational people".

What's that supposed to mean!?! You're probably one of those liberals who sees extremely violent video games as just entertainment and not influential at all, but you're all hysterical when it comes to conservative talk-radio. It's called freedome of speech! Don't like it? Go move to Cuba or Venezuela, where dissenting points of view are forbidden and people are jailed. You'll be happier there.

[daizee106]

I think liberalism is infecting people with stupidity and should be banned. That makes about as much sense as what these clowns are trying to do. They dont want anyone speaking against them is what it boils down to. Fiscallly conservative is like a plauge for this kind of moron.I dont agree with all they say, but it is their right and the right of people who listen.

[rgrizer]

I dont care what people say. this is still america. you can not tell me what i can or cant listen to. people need to wake up!

[Munier1]

Even if a radio station does nothing but spew hate messages, you still do not rescind freedom of speech rights. If you force them to be silent, you will only empower them. We let assholes like the Klan organize and rally because if we do not, it will begin to look like they are on to something; that they are right about what they say.

Read John Stewart Mill's "On Liberty."

[WKaliber1]

What's Worse than the Fairness Doctrine?

Rape

[Otacon237]

Looks like the Obama farce is trying to solidify their grip on America's mind. Why is this surprising? After this comes weapons confiscation, blacklisting, and a totalitarian regime.

[joerow85]

Mega Dittos hellotommy

[hellotommy]

Total Fascism! I cannot even believe this is being considered in the USA! The Gov. telling you what you can say?!?CENSORSHIP! 38% of Americans support this censorship doctrine. You will not be able to express your opinion about any polictician on radio or the internet. The dems think that they can control the media doing this. Bye Bye free speech. Libs better have something nice to say about Bush, cause it's gonna work both ways stupid. What happened to the land of the free? Stunning...

[jorgen325]

Violates free speech dumbass.

You liberals will be the death of this country.

[KingProgressive]

Do to the fact that morals dont hold up where there is no law and these radios are basically hate radio stations. Hell yeah every show should have an opposite person on the show. Because these hate stations have degraded the true American way and created an atmosphere of hate

[waftv]

Morals don't hold up where there is no law?

How do you account for crooked cops then?

How do you account for the fact that any of us can buy illegal drugs any time we want?

"Their opinion is different than mine, which I find their opinions to be hurtful and hateful. They kill more people than alcohol-related deaths. Shut them down!"

You literally have no logic whatsoever.

[Puncture9]

You fucking whiney ass liberal pussies.

[KingProgressive]

You miss the point "Fairness" you stupid bitch

[Puncture9]

Oh whats wrong, your sides bullshit and lies arent getting out. You pussies have Air America, which no one fucking listens to.

[ymp5000]

The open market is all the fairness we need. Liberals have tried talk radio and it has failed. It failed because people do not list nor advertise in large enough numbers to make it profitable. Head to head competition IS fair and the contest IS over so now the left wants to change the rules of the game. What a bunch of PUSSIES!!

[urizon41]

this is the end all. once the voices of resistance are silenced there will be no way to stop them or find the truth. there agenda will go through in the dark of night. I predict the next thing will be removing firearms from the masses

[KingProgressive]

The problem is that these radio hacks are the biggest liars

[bittergunowner12]

And everything Keith Olbermann says is the truth?

[backobeyond]

For the truth about the Fairness Doctrine go to thefairnessdoctrineDOTcc

[baghoe37]

Fine by me ass long as the same standard is applied to TV after all its public, otherwise what was all the converter coupons for?

[BourneAccident]

free speech MY ASS!!! its time to let people voice their opinions and shut the NAZICRATS once and for all!!!

[SestrenNK]

"Media Diversity?" Wow, that's a sugar-coated way of putting it. Let's all thank big-daddy government for forcing us to be "open" to their views when they could give a rat's ass about our own.

[1971texas]

If they get rid of conservative talk radio I will just make my own I already have the equipment and I wont have any rules to follow its time to pump up the volume we will flood the airways

[TuxLady]

Same thing. Different name. It's for the ball-less who won't come at ya straight on. Is Obama gay, or what?

[Raycheetah]

It's a violation of Free Speech and Press, by the imposition of journalistic affirmative action.
