Coming Through Obama’s Bureaucratic Back Door


I hope you all had a great 4th of July. I also hope you had some
patriotic renewal and re-connection to the unique freedoms that we
enjoy as Americans — for now.


We’ve been reporting that many of these freedoms are under attack by
Obama, Pelosi and Reid, who want to kill Talk Radio. They said so
during the elections and transition, but they realized they were
tripping alarms when they ran their mouth – so they stopped talking.


Now they’ll be using subversive, back-door bureaucratic tactics. They
imposed a gag order on Genachowski, their nominee for FCC Chairman,
preventing him from talking substance during his confirmation hearing
– a Democratic love fest. Then, to stay under the radar, Harry Reid
maneuvered Genachowski’s confirmation through the Senate – WITHOUT
EVEN A VOTE!


Get used to it. Al Franken has arrived to give Harry Reid an automatic
Super Majority in the Senate and Obama has a majority on the FCC. Here
is what’s next:


Strike 1 – the FCC Diversity Sub-Committee will start writing
regulations to redistribute station ownership to minorities;


Strike 2 – the Congress and FCC will begin writing rules for “Local
Content” requirements, to force radio coverage of left wing views –
even if there is scant listener interest for it in local communities;


Strike 3 – Democrats in Congress will start writing new legislation
taxing radio spectrum to pay for Obama’s socialized medicine program.


... and Talk Radio is OUT. The mainstream media won’t bring you this
news because they can’t afford reporters to cover it, don’t understand
the nuance, or are too busy cutting their own deals.


But at UnFairAir – we’ll get the word out. We have the tools: the
Internet and radio. Let’s use them.


Sorry for the bad news on the threats to freedom of speech – after a
holiday where we celebrate freedom. But there you have it. Please get
the word out.


In the meantime, stay tuned.


Regards,

Yep, they have been talking about it on WLW
and on 550. I wonder why there are all these
posts on Sarah in here, but not a peep from
anyone in a ahem RADIO GROUP?

Everyone is taking their shots at Palin in here (and she's
gone) but no one is saying anything about the
person they voted for wanting to put the stop
on free speech.


- Only in Amerika.
- Gotta love it, I know I do. :-)
