Well, no, someone else wanted to debate about it. I didn't start the thread. Someone called it censorship. It's not censorship. Maybe a kid growing up in Alabama should be exposed to more than just the one view on their airways. You live in California, and you're assuming other areas have our choices of views to listen to. They don't. You're assuming there is access to alternative views everywhere.

So a kid in Alabama has no other source of information to see all points of view but a radio station? I didnt know they didnt have libraries or newspapers or internet or television in Alabama . I havent lived in California all my life and somehow I have always been able to get information when I needed it . I think they should give 4 billion dollars to Alabama in the stimulis package so they can have sources of information besides radio so that the children of the state can be informed .

Another point also , if I owned a radio station , I would play what I wanted to play and people who bought airtime would know it and if they didnt like they could feel very free to take their buisness elsewhere.

notice they aren't going after TV and newspapers or movies for that matter...

freedom of speech
free market

things that are enemies of the state


where and when do I get to force my viewpoints on the public airwaves?
or Airhead Amerika

How will the Stalinist enforce this so-called "fairness" ? Government employees take up valuable airtime parroting the party line?

have some twit shout over the host and callers of shows like Tammy Bruce, Mark Levin etc?

Talk radio is the only place not dominated by leftist commie rats. They couldn't get people to listen to Air America so they are going to make it against the law to let the free market work.

Barackovich thinks the problem is what? Freedom of speech - Freedom of the press or some civil right(s) he is against.
