Blunt is WRONG. He claims the FCC and the SCOTUS oppose it but FAILES to state that the GOP majority of the SCOTUS ONLY holds that view and the new BUSH head of the FCC says that and NOT all the commissioners. The Fairness Doctrine PROTECT free speech and allows the public to hear opposing and important views regardless of it's bias. The PUBLIC owns the airwaves and the PUBLIC can do whatever they want with it.

Fairness Doctrine = Not fair at all.

False! the Fairness doctrine was not declared a violation of free speech by the supreme court. In fact, it upheld first amendment constitutionality in red lion broadcasting company v. FCC 8-0. check your facts.
ALSO it was only deemed a violation of free speech by the FCC after Reagan put in chairperson Mark S. Fowler, someone who wasn't even born in the US.
GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT

I think that if we are going to silence free speech we should start with either the internet or the newspaper. Starting in the middle doesn't really make any sense unless we go after the most influential one, which is television.

Roy Blunt is the man.

"BRING BACK THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE"
What good will it do you? When we all tune you out like we did Air America will our wives and children be arrested and thrown into gulags? You have billions of opportunities to hear left wing viewpoints with PCs, Ipods, and Air America. You do not have the right to silence the opposition. This is another october revolution parading itself as "fairness". The reality is you are attempting to force yourselves on people who do not wish to hear you.

if liberal radio could get the ratings and make money, liberal radio would be everywhere. but liberal radio can't compete so the liberals want the broadcast stations to subsidize there desire to voice their viewpoints. as their will be little paid advertising a.m. talk radio would be forced to devote half their airtime without just compensation. if the fairness doctrine is reinstated you might as well kiss english language a.m. radio goodbye.
