Here's an illustration of why liberals (in both parties) would like to bring back the "Fairness Doctrine" to emasculate talk radio.
From the Politico:
“What listeners of the conservative talk radio media were hearing, in large part, was that the legislation itself was little more than an ‘amnesty bill’ for illegal immigrants, a phrase loaded with political baggage,” it says.
The study by the nonpartisan Project for Excellence in Journalism quantifies what White House and Capitol Hill phone lines and e-mail inboxes already indicated: Talk radio focused on the immigration debate more intensely than the mainstream media did from April to June.
Talk radio is being credited with bringing down the amnesty bill...and I would have to concur. The "mainstream" media certainly wasn't doing it's job; it was too busy using its stories to shelter illegal aliens.
