Your caps lock key is broken.
And if you think Moveon.org will stop the Republicans,
you've got a screw loose.

Shouldn't that read:

a bigger question should be what has happened to the FCC period (hint:

You're right. Interference requirements seem to have to become a dead issue
in the last 10 or 15 years. It would be asking alot of the FCC to have them
start caring now.


Now we've got BPL coming
down the pike, on top of all the touch lamps and noisy TV sets. Is there

I don't think so.



I think BPL is a terrible idea, and I say that as someone who holds stock
in several power companies. But then, I thought VOIP was a terrible idea
also.

Are any of those power companies considering BPL? I'd worry about the
company ****ing away cash on a goofy idea.

No, but you could say that about Kerry. He missed most of the Senate
votes this year.

The fairness doctrine is interference. It was used as a political club.
Richard Nixon and the Republican party were using the so-called fairness
doctrine to go after the licenses of radio and TV properties of networks and
newspapers they didn't like. But Nixon didn't invent the tactic. It was
first used in the Kennedy administration. Given today's political
climate,I'm sure both parties would enthusiastically hammer the media
companies whenever embarrassing stories got out.

Is that really what you want?

There's a mistaken belief that dropping the fairness doctrine made right
wing political talk radio possible. That's not true. In Chicago, Howard
Miller had a greatly entertaining political talk show back in the early
seventies. Miller was to the right of Limbaugh, Hannity and Atilla the Hun.

Let's also consider who else gets treated shabbily by the fairness doctrine.
Who should determine what the audience should hear -- the government or the
audience?

1. The Fairness Doctrine could be resurrected and rewritten to assure a
balance of voices/opinions are heard on the public airwaves.
2. The audience has absolutely no input over what is heard on the airwaves
(with very limited exceptions). If you try to argue that broadcasters are
responding to market demands then the I.Q. factor in this country has
indeed fallen to the low double or even single digit range.
3. No, what I would really like to see is an ownership cap of seven to a
dozen stations per entity with no cross ownership. Then there might
actually be some creative programming and diversity - you know, like there
was for the first 75 years or so.... Imagine! stations with different
studios, different personnel, maybe even different program directors! Then
they wouldn't sell for over inflated amounts and we wouldn't get stripped
down, dumbed down voice-tracked generic dog-vomit programming!
4. Radio listenership is down by 15-20%. There's a reason for that

this isn't a poltoical post only asking about broadband over powerlines.
the only way i'd truly be for this is if they could do something to the
lines there using so that the radio wvaes or harmonics as i've read
won't be emitted out side the transmission lines?

www.moveon.org stop the republicans!
bush health care does not empower americans!

The "move on" bull**** appearing at the bottom of your
post makes it a political post.

You might want to have a doctor provide some care - you
obviously suffer from acute rectocranial inversion.
