Well, the "party for the people" is at it again when it comes to conservative talk radio. They claim to be all for free speech until that free speech goes against their beliefs. Here are your tax dollars at work.

Note the honest response as to why the attack. "If we can take them off their game for a while, it will help our folks out there on the campaign trail." They admit to attacking free speech for political gain!!
Waxman to investigate talk radio

Here is what they want to impose on talk radio. The Fairness Doctrine would force broadcasters to give equal time to both sides in order to keep things "fair." There's only one problem, democratic talk radio doesn't make money. Look at the latest go, Air America was on air for a short while and filed chapter 11 with over $20 million in debts that it could not pay. Look at conservative talk radio which, for the most part, makes a lot of money in advertising. Rush Limbaugh has over 20 million listeners, Sean Hannity is another successful Republican talk radio host. The broadcasters carry their show because they make money. Enacting this "Fairness Doctrine" would force the broadcastert to carry shows that lose money. All this because they don't like what the hosts have to say.

Your tax dollars at work people.
