Mark Lloyd - FCC Hitman

Attention, radio station closings are imminent. The government is closing radio stations in the interest of “democratizing” media ownership of radio stations. Several stations that express opinions not totally in favor of the administration will be closed in the interest of “the people”.

We knew it was coming but didn’t think it would be so obvious. I at least thought the administration would concoct some story that the people would actually fall for. Instead, they have become so bold as to do what they wish regardless of the will of the people.

Granted, in a free society, we are given the right of free speech and our opinions are ours to develop without the censorship of the government. In this administration, it seems that will of the government officials trump the will of the people.

The above mentioned atrocities are currently taking place in Venezuela. 34 stations were closed in August, 29 are scheduled to be closed with a suspected total of 100 stations being eliminated for not promoting the message of the Chavez regime.

Worthy of mentioning is the fact that the Democratic Congress tried to pass the “Fairness Doctrine” which would have had the same results as the events taking place under Chavez.

It is highly suspected that an assault on our 1st amendment rights will be forth coming in the form of another less obvious form of censorship of media not controlled by the liberal left. Interesting enough, is the fact that the “Fairness Doctrine” ONLY dealt with radio stations which characteristically represent the “other side of the argument.” Talk radio is responsible for halting the Amnesty Bill that was attempted to be passed under cover of silence until talk radio exposed the fraud to the people of the United States, and more recently the Cap and Trade farce and the Health Care debacle.

If you feel that true coverage of administration policies and practices are being covered on National Television, please read my blog dated September 4th.

Having waited 2 days to post this blog, I find a new addition must be added.

Mark Lloyd – FCC Chief Diversity Czar – is beginning his attack on talk radio diversity of content on what you are allowed to hear or put another way, what the owners are allowed to say. Big licensing fees are at stake for not talking the governments talk or not providing a diversity of station ownership. Of course, much of the fees go to finance the liberal radio wing – PBS. Will they stop at nothing?

Curious that television is not falling under scrutiny. They are still allowed to remain bias except for FOX. I am sure they will go after them next.
