"Internet fairness doctrine" covering all speech on the internet.

Well, just like the ACLU outing 42 CIA agents to a known terrorist
group, and the New Black Panther party getting to brandish weapons at a
voting booth.. The "fairness" will be a bit one sided.. Harry will be
considered "mainstream", he will be fine..

If you weren't such a ****-for-brains, scotty, you'd know the chairman
of the fcc has already stated more than once that there will be no
rebirth of the "fairness doctrine," most recently to that idiot grassly.

So, your source of third-reich opinion will continue uninterrupted.

In spite of the fact that there is no movement in Congress to re-
implement the 'Fairness Doctrine' that would silence conservative talk
radio, the Obama administration and Democrats on The Hill are working
behind the scenes to accomplish that very goal without the Doctrine.

With the appointment of Mark Loyd to the FCC as the nation's very
first 'Chief Diversity Officer,' Obama hopes to accomplish the very
things that the Fairness Doctrine would mandate.

The main focus would be to force commercial radio stations to offer a
'diversity of opinion,' meaning of course that liberals would get
equal time to promote their causes and concepts. Rather than get
mired in the swampland of rules and regulations concerning how to do
that, radio stations will simply cancel programs such as Rush
Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck.

But this is not the only thing Loyd would do as Chief Diversity
Officer.

Loyd wants public broadcasting to be the dominant force in radio,
overshadowing commercial stations. And, as we have cited before, he
would do this by forcing commercial radio stations to pay a fee equal
to their entire operating cost to the government in order to directly
benefit NPR.

However, more danger lurks just under the surface with regard to Loyd.

Today, we discovered this:

Lloyd draws on his experience lobbying the FCC during the Clinton
administration, counseling would-be revolutionaries to follow the
tactics used by other left-wing movements, such as the followers of
Saul Alinsky and the people who ran the campaign to block Republican
Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork.

"We understood at the beginning, and were certainly reminded in the
course of the campaign," wrote Lloyd, "that our work was not simply
convincing policy makers of the logic or morality of our arguments. We
understood that we were in a struggle for power against an opponent,
the commercial broadcasters ...."


In addition, Loyd makes it clear that the concepts pushed by extremist
Saul Alinsky in his book, Rules for Radicals, would serve as the
inspiration for his war on commercial broadcasting:

"We looked to successful political campaigns and organizers as a
guide, especially the civil rights movement, Saul Alinsky, and the
campaign to prevent the Supreme Court nomination of the ultra-
conservative jurist Robert Bork," wrote Lloyd. "From those sources we
drew inspiration and guidance."


In order to wrest control of broadcasting from private commercial
interests to place it under government control, Loyd outlines 6 goals,
which include vastly expanding NPR with money collected from
commercial radio stations, expanding the FCC by setting up powerful
regional hubs, and 'clear regulations over political commentary and
advertising.'

In other words, good-bye freedom of speech.

But Loyd has an answer to critics who cry foul over his plan to muzzle
First Amendment rights. He thinks that concern over the First
Amendment is 'exaggerated':

“It should be clear by now that my focus here is not freedom of speech
or the press,” he said. “This freedom is all too often an
exaggeration. At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech
or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of
other communications policies.”


These examples make it clear that Obama intends to wage all-out war on
conservative talk radio, free speech, free commerce through private
radio broadcasting corporations, and new government regulations that
control broadcast content. The First Amendment is simply an
exaggerated concern that gets in the way.

Jesus.....you make it sound like tthe panthers were there forcing people
to vote a certain way! The internet fairness doctrine? The guy knows
it'll never gain legs, so is more or less just talking about it. He even
goes so far as to say that if it ever happened it would be
unconstitutional. So, I beg to ask, where did you get the information
that the Obama administration is proposing this idea?
You see, it's not a question of either proving or disproving something.
It's the intellectual dishonesty of someone saying that the admin. is
proposing it when that's not true.

Ahhh...another right-wing screed. Does it mention teabags and deathers,
too?
