Will the democrats re-enact the fairness act , and exploit it to censor free speech?

Question

Air America the liberals shinny star died a deserving death, and the leftist just can't sustain their own outlets. So they resort back to the fairness act, if not to censor the right, then why?

Answer 1

There is no Fairness "Act."  There was the so-called Fairness "Doctrine," a cockamamie idea dreamed up by the FCC.  The Dems are sore losers and want to shut up conservatives.  Now there is so much advertising revenue involved, that conservative talk radio will surely battle them in the courts if they try to pass such a law.

Answer 2

They don't have the votes to do it now, but if they ever do, you can bet the farm they will use it censure free speech.  

Answer 3

If the democrats have their way yes. The free market is open to anyone with the desire, will, and funds to make their mark. George Soros tried to keep that dead horse (air america) in the race, but the horse had no soul, and is at this moment burning in h**l. The fairness act as the democrats want to exploite it, is nothing less than censorship. I thought this was the United States of America, and not communist China or Russia.

Answer 4

That seems to be their goal.

But then free speech to a Liberal is when you agree with them.

Answer 5

I hope they do, we are way overdue for a civil war. The Liberals have been using censorship for 20 years so they don't have to develop a legitimate argument.

The fairness doctrine is exactly what we need to convince the rubber spine Republicans that the era of talk is over and the age of blood is upon us.

We will fight for our Liberty or we do not deserve it.

Answer 6

"Think 1st", how is forcing a conservative channel to have a liberal program on it "fair" if the channel is privately owned? Doing this brings us closer to communism instead of vice versa. Besides, you guys misquote us enough on your own.

Answer 7

Unfortunately, that may come to pass. Then again it should be interesting to see them have to put Rush or O'Reily types on CNN or MSNBC. They want to abuse the system it can be turned on them as well.

Answer 8

Nope.

It will be used to allow dissenting opinions or rebuttal..

Unlike places like China. Cuba and N. Korea where that type of thing is not allowed.

You should visit, you seem to be on the same page.

Answer 9

They will try, but under another name, just as the FCC chairman has said. If they succeed, it will be the end of democrats, so I hope they do it.
