House Republican Conference Announcement on Bill to Ban Fairness Doctrine
House Republican Conference Announcement on Bill to Ban Fairness Doctrine (January 7, 2009)
Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) was joined by Reps. Mike Pence (R-IN) and Greg Walden (R-OR) at a press conference to highlight the introduction of the Broadcaster Freedom Act on the Floor of the U.S. House. The Broacaster Freedom Act would prevent the FCC from implementing the Fairness Doctrine without an act of Congress.
Washington, DC : 21 min.

"Broadcaster Freedom Act" -- just to confuse the public a bit more . . . !!!

2. They want to ban a law that is not even on the books
and hasn't been for over 20 years.

What a waste of time.

4. Cause they wouldn't want the "librul" media have to give their side
equal time.

In order to be a Republican, you have to be able to believe in fairy tales, because reality sure gets in the way too often.
