A Question of Fairness

In ruling out a vote on Pence’s proposed Broadcaster's Freedom Act, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D.-CA.) also signaled her strong support for revival of the “Fairness Doctrine” -- which would require radio station owners to provide equal time to radio commentary when it is requested.
The ruling Marxists can't allow a marketplace of ideas. It must be controlled and directed.

What the hell kind of ant mentality views basic human decency as a "doctrine" to be imposed by the state anyway?

That Air America can't stay aloft when left to the choice of the people (hey, isn't that democracy...?) simply means that force must now be employed. And since the airwaves are the province of the collective...

See, it doesn't matter that broadcasters can move over to paid satellite radio--what Commisar Nancy is interested in is manipulating the masses--for now. They'll get to the privateers in due time--starting by convincing people they're "pirates."

Hey, you gotta demonize your enemies to gin up the manufactured hate.

And once that's all locked up, can the Internet be far behind?

A few days back I asked WoG readers to sign a petition sent to me by Michael Dukes. Like I said, I don't know if it will do any good, but it certainly can't hurt to invest a few seconds to make your stance known.

  1. well, if this passes and the left gets time on the right wing stations does that mean that NPR will have to give time to the right?

    If they pass this we should beat them over the head with it. . .

  2. Hey what about us crazy Anarcho-capitalists? Do WE get a say? Can I force Air America to put me on their station?

    Not only is this an egregious breach of the first amendment, but it is NOT going to cut both ways.

  3. The argument I always hear is that the media are "too right-wing" and that Nationalist Public Radio IS the equal time.
    Rush Limbaugh is fond of saying he IS the equal time to counter the LEFT-wing mass media.
    To paraphrase "Saturday Night Live's" "Point/Counterpoint" parody:
    "Nancy, you ignorant slut."
    (And two heartbeats away from the presidency.)

  4. Excellent point, jon. There are often AT LEAST THREE sides to every argument. The upcoming presidential election will illustrate it very well.

  5. Does this mean Dr. Dobson will get a show on LOGO?

  6. Nancy hasn't anyone told you life ain't fair?

    If people LIKED you bullshit they'd be flocking to it, instead we see people fleeing from it...one only need look at the emigration rates from the soviet union during the "progressive's" rule
