You mean Fox, the network that is a master of reality TV? I watch it too, but if you don't have cable, sorry but you won't get fox news.

Is this what we're talking about?
The Fairness Doctrine was a policy of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that was (in the Commission's view) honest, equitable and balanced.

To be honest, Liberals think telling the truth is hatefull. You mention that 85% of interracial crime is commited by blacks, and suddenly your a racist. However, if I mentioned that only 10% of racial crime is commited by whites, The libs would cheer.

I am sure your remote control has more than one channel/station available to you.
There is this little thing called freedom of speech, you remember it, now, don't you?
Now if only you could convince the crazies to flip channels.
(Or realize its entertainment, not news)

Just today some racist attacked the Halocaust Museum because he doesn't like the Jews. Immigrants have been attacked, blacks have been attacked, abortion docs killed in church and at home and there is little doubt in my mind that much of this is encouraged by talk radio and its venomous right wing extreme host.
what?

Seems you are suggesting that Censorship should be applied to a type of opinon you do not like KevK.

IMHO, if you are suggesting censorship - even a very little bit - then you cannot be a real American.
