Back Door Censorship
by: Mike Proto | February 26
Senator DeMint has been posting on Twitter (would that be ‘twittering’ or ‘tweeting’??) regarding Un-Fairness Doctrine debate. GOP amendment banning Fairness Doctrine passed 87-11…BUT Durbin amendment which will allow FCC to regulate radio content passed 57-41. In other words, laying the groundwork for back door censorship of talk radio – just not calling it what it really is. First Amendment be damned!
Here is some audio from the debate on the Senate floor.
To join the movement to help fight this go to protectfairness.com.
While I do believe the Fairness Doctrine is a trojan horse that sounds good at first glance but will be leveraged by liberals for social engineer purposes. I also think the American Public and the FCC need to keep an eye on ISPs as well as the airwaves. Comcast has been censoring conservative message board posters in my opinion. Because dominant ISP Comcast is a gateway to the internet, they control many eyeballs. Comcast’s systematic censoring of conservative opinions on their News & Current Events message boards needs to cease and desist. If Comcast gets tax breaks from local government, then they have a civic, ethical, moral and perhaps legal obligation to provide fair and balanced moderation of their message boards. This type of social engineering is an outrage. Please get involved. Silence is consent. Post a conservative response to a News or Current Events thread here and see for yourself.
