Fairness Doctrine? Are you kidding me?

There you go again. Can't give an honest argument so you marginalize people. Weak, realy weak.

Scratch a wing nut you find a bigot.

when have you ever been honest?
and you're not marginalizing anyone?
scratch a liberal, find an idiot.:cof1:
 
Yes, but in as much as the question needed to be asked in the first place i though a fuller answer may be beneficial all round.

That was rather patronizing of you sir. Do you think we are all idiots? Oh...we're Americans aren't we? I guess that would be a rhetorical question then.
 
Democrats don't need neocons who think the air wave's are ok being monopolized.
Shit Republicans put Tommy Chong in jail for a bong at the cost of about $12,000,000. The same family first guys out fucking prostitutes.
Go back to your boys Chapdog.
 
Hey it's public airwaves. Republicans don't have a right to dominate them with their propaganda because their plutocrats have more money. How the hell does that equate to socialism? What is it about this little bugaboo scare tactic. Anything Republicans don't like and it's *GASP* Socialism!

Propaganda outlets, like Fox News, who purposefully deceive the public by masquerading as news should be regulated, as should the right wing propagandist on talk radio and to a much lesser extent, left wing talk radio who should be held accountable for the veracity of their programs. It's patently silly that a moron of the magnitude of Rush Limbaugh should be a king maker in one our two parties. Hell that's even worse for Republicans, in the long haul, then it is for Democrats.

Ultimately it's public property that these propagandist are playing in and they will have to play by the publics rules.

My understanding is that TV is broadcast over the same public airwaves or was until the invention of cable TV. So why would TV be excluded? The only reason I can think of is that Democrats control the TV market and thus would not want to suffer the same thing they are trying to do to conservatives.

Or is this why they are trying to force everyone to go cable with the complete switch to digital?

Hello?? Anyone home? Are you even reading what I wrote? Who gives a fuck about conservatives (or liberals for that matter). The point is is that if the public doesn't want the public airwaves polluted with partisan political propaganda, they have the right to regulate it.
In case you weren't taught this in your U.S. Government class (you were probably out beating off to Karl Marx) the Bill of Rights was written to prevent useless fascist scum sucking fucks like yourself from that kind of action. In short, no you DO NOT have the right to regulate content of broadcast programs.

The "public airwaves" is a fucking LIE told by assholes like yourselves (or are you actually so mindlessly ignorant to believe your own lies?). There is no such fucking thing as "the public airwaves". There is a phenomenon called the electromagnetic spectrum that is the result of the physical structure of the universe. Humans have managed to invent devices which can use the electromagnetic spectrum to transmit information. The EM spectrum would exist whether we use it for transmitting information or now.

You useless braindead fucks just cannot STAND the FACT that people want to listen to ideas you don't like. You can't STAND the fact that there are not enough vacuum skulled morons to make talk shows featuring your ideas profitable.

I have a simple solution for you. If you want your ideas listened to, try coming up with one that is actually WORTH listening to. The people choose to listen to those shows because they want that kind of content. If, as you try to imply, an actual majority did NOT want to listen to it, they would not be profitable and the radio station managers - being in business to make a profit - would change their programming to what people DO want to listen to.

Only fascists like yourself think you have a "right" to interfere with what people FREELY CHOOSE to listen to because you don't like their choices.

You've said it far better than I could have myself.

I'm sorry but I really don't understand your question Immie.

Hey pal. READ MY POST and while you're at it the Constitution. The public has the right to regulate the pulbic airwaves under the insterstate commerce act of the US Constitution. The issue of regulating political propaganda on the public air wave is no different than regulating obscenity or offensive language.

Personally I could give a fuck less about either sides propaganda. But considering how appalled I am that Republicans have adopted the Goebbels propaganda model tells me you don't even know what the fuck fascism is. IT'S WHY I LEFT THE REPUBLCIAN PARTY! My conscience could not live with their brand of extremism and look where they've led us?

Okay, let me try it a little differently. I'm not knowledgeable about how TV and radio work. However, my understanding is that pre-cable TV, when broadcast TV was analog, it was broadcast over the "public airwaves" and since TV is still broadcast analog for the time being, shouldn't TV be included in the so-called Fairness Doctrine? But, Obama and liberals have excluded TV. Why?

The question I asked was if liberals are trying to force the digital conversion so that they can exclude TV from the Fairness Doctrine because Cable TV i.e. digital is broadcast over corporate cables?

I didn't realize they had radios back then. Since the Constitution is silent about airwaves, I guess we will just have to make do with the 1st Amendment...
