Democrats push Un-Constitutional fairness doctrine.

I want to seriously pose a question to all that will read this blogpost, some on the Democrat side of the American political spectrum have called for a "fairness doctrine" to takeover American talk radio, saying that the blatant bias is against America's best interest, and that we need supposed "fairness".

First off, the First Amendment protects freedom of speech & freedom press, meaning the government has no right to touch the radio dial or anyother media in the first place.

Secondly, American talkradio serves as the balance against a liberal newspaper industry, television industry (with the exception of FoxNews), and Hollywood - which produces thousands of movies a year.

Thirdly, some Democrats claim that Americans do not receive enough public broadcasting or enough views to make informed decisions on issues because of talkradio, has anyone heard of NPR? Hundreds of stations around the county, with a liberal slant. And there are tens of thousands of media sources with various opinions in Newspaper, Talk Radio, Television, and the Internet.

Fourthly, the supposed "fairness doctrine" is 100% Un-Constitutional.

So my question is, because talkradio is the ONLY media source promoting Conservative views and opinions, which are American views & opinions, can you find any other opinions anywhere else in anyother media source? And can you make decisions on political decisions as well? Because if you can, then the chief idiotic claim of the Democrats anti-first amendment, anti-talk radio, anti-Conservatism "censorship doctrine" is 100% proven, once again I may add, false.

Also, Democrats are going after Conservative Talkradio because it dares express a Constitutional given right to express a different opinion then them.

You realize that the Fairness Doctrine has existed since about 1949 and has nothing to do with the 1st Amendment right?

Either you are ignorant or just stupid. The First Amendment protects the freedom of speech & freedom of the press from government intervention, meaning if the government tells the media (press) to air one opinion or the other,or to tell them to air both opinions, it is in violation of the Constitution. Plus its against the capitalistic system of America.

Also, Reagan's FCC made the fairness doctrine illegal, the democrats want to enforce it again, thus they are pushing ot through.

Thanks for stopping by my site.

I think the thing I like the most is that we don't seem to be talking about television where the left dominates, just radio which is owned by the right.

Is it wrong that I am concerned that the Left is attempting to regulate and silence the only Conservative - American medium in the entire county? Freedom of speech and the Constitution means a lot to me.

I disagree with your point about talk radio "balancing out" NPR's huge grip on the media. For the most part, NPR is broadcast from college radio stations using transmitters powered by a few car batteries, so I think Clear Channel has a little edge on us liberals.

However, as a liberal I must commend you for rightfully bashing the "Fairness Doctrine." It makes me cringe when I hear liberals push the same Nazi bullshit that we accuse Rush Limbaugh of pushing (He *does* push hateful invective by the way, but I digress).

We may disagree on what constitutes real news, but we are brothers-in-arms when it comes to this fairness doctrine nonsense.
