Between Beck and O'Reilly Fox will blow everyone out of the sky with
viewership ratings - they're an AWESOME pair!

Until the Dopeocrats fix it with the fairness doctrine.


Fairness doctrine would not take anyone off the air, only require equal
time for the other side. Fox News should not have a problem with that if
they were to actually be true to their slogan "Fair and Balanced".

Aside from that, the doctrine only applies during election season.
Conservative talk radio (really almost all of it has been so from the
beginning many decades ago) existed coincident with the original
doctrine, with almost no legal issues. A station or network had to pretty
much specifically be 'in the tank' for a given candidate to elicit any
legal action by the Commission.
As I recall, all it took to be compliant was an open offer for opposing
view points.

I believe that was precisely the situation, yes.

But the thing is, it's just a hassle for the stations...

And, the Liberal/Democrat/Marxists are big into hassling, bribery and
extortion... just ask Jesse Jackson!

The stations are granted a license to use the public airwaves and must
serve the public in return. I'd support a return to the days when every
station did news and every station had meaningful public service
programming.

Equal time. Have an hour conservative show, have a hour liberal show. We saw
how the liberals did with the AirAmerica disaster.

Talk radio on AM and FM once upon a time was all Liberal all the time.
Not only did I not care for that point of view many of these left
leaning hosts were disgusting, despicable people. Two of these I recall
was Tom Leykis and another was Bernie Ward.

Bernie finally got a jail sentence for child porn.

Leykis is still free but one day I expect to read about him being behind
bars for getting caught doing some disgusting thing.

That would be an hour of no revenue for the station.

You work 40 hours a week. How about you give me 1 hour worth of that.

I don't think that's how it would work. In Los Angeles Clear Channel
owns 3 talkers: KFI, which caters to the knuckle dragging mouth
breathers; KLAC, Sports; and KTLK, which is Progressive Talk (your Air
America provides some programs, as does Jones Radio and Nova M).

In Los Angeles Clear Channel is pretty well-balanced ideologically. On
the other hand, there are many markets that are brimming with right-wing
hate radio, and nothing to counter. They really need to balance things
out, lest the people get a warped view of the world. Hopefully, just
the threat of a "Fairness Doctrine" law would be enough to get these
guys to loosen up. BTW, there never was Fairness Doctrine legislation.
It was always an executive order.

Of course there would be no revenue. Who would advertise on a time slot
where nobody listens?

There is legislation to ban it for good. Of course Pelosi and her goons wont
let it get a vote.

So, Leykis is despicable because - Why? He talks about things that
make you blush?

You just want an excuse to bad-mouth him because he's middle-liberal,
and to you and other ideologues that's a dirty word.
