Default The ObaMa0 attack on Talk Radio is Real -- Call to Action

There are more strong signals coming from the Obama Administration
reflecting an intent to put Talk Radio out of business -- or at least
reshape it to censor critical voices and points of view.

When I launched UnFairAir (www.unfairair.org) some weeks ago, we knew
that several U.S. Senators had publicly called for a re-instatement of
the "Fairness Doctrine"; we knew that draft FCC regulations mandating
"localism" and "diversity of ownership" had been circulating since
early 2008; we also knew that the Obama transition team had vetted pro-
Fairness Doctrine appointees to the FCC.

The "attack is Real"?? Only in your Fox-News-contaminated-thinking,
Donkey Doo. Get up to date on a few things.

1. A Federal Court UPHELD THE REPEAL of the Fairness Doctrine back in
1989.

2. Obama has already voiced his DISAPPROVAL of re-instating the
Fairness Doctrine.

3. However, it IS TRUE that Representatives Hinchey and Slaughter have
introduced a bill to bring back the Fairness Doctrine on more than one
occasion, but the bills have DIED IN COMMITTEE.

Calm down, have a rest, and try aroma therapy, a colon cleanse....or
sumthin'. Better yet, just try to stay informed with some real facts.
