@Zardoz,
Quote:Fox news would have been taken off the air if the Fairness Doctrine was in place.
Every cable news channel currently on the air would be off the air if the Fairness Doctrine was in place. CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, they would all be gone as none of them present a fair case on anything.
Quote: A network created by right wing political operatives and that takes an active role in Trump’s political campaign.
Unlike CNN and MSNBC being shrills for the DNC and working closly with that party to win elections?
Quote:In the eighties radio talk shows were popular the host was generally neutral and the show was made up of phone calls.
I like how you threw in the "generally neutral", which means they weren't neutral at all.
Quote:Now the so-called talk shows are near 100% lecture on the republican talking points of the week with a hero worship call or two.
I take it you never listened to left-wing talk radio... Ed Schultz would have Bernie on all the time, it's how I know Bernie was a socialist, he used to admit it on Shultz's show all the time. People would accuse me of trying to smear Bernie, but I was only pointing out what the man himself said.
Quote:Glen Beck, Rush Slimbaugh or Sean Hannity would have been removed because they are just an arm of the republican party.
Just like every talk radio program currently on the radio, no one would be immune from the law.
Quote:The three big networks were founded as news organization on the other hand Fox News was founded as a political tool with an agenda to elect right wing politicians to destroy America.
No, they were not founded as news organizations, they were founded as entertainment channels that came from old radio channels, I love Lucy, Honeymooners, Father Knows Best, they would only do a single 30 minutes of news a night, not something you build an entire channel around now is it.
Quote:You are far more republican then most republican you don’t have an independent bone in your body.
Haha, you actually have no clue as to what you are talking about. I left the GOP for a couple of reasons and one of them had to do with the stubborn Social Conservatives who wouldn't let go of gay marriage, they were sticking with the religious people and ignoring the non-religious people. I actually have some pretty good liberal leanings.
Quote:The democratic party is made up of a number of factions.
Not anymore they aren't. The DNC is currently made up of extreme leftists who would have burned JFK at the stake.
Quote:Fox News is a political tool the others major broadcast news organizations have a corporate agenda.
No they don't, they have the same agenda as the DNC, it can be seen in the way they pick their news stories and how they report them. You seem to have forgotten that CNN was once called the Clinton News Network...
Quote:If there were any left-wing news outlets, they would have a far different political agenda than corporate news.
You really are blind as to how the world really works don't you. The news organizations support and promote the DNC and the new extreme leftists of the party. Do you really think AOC and the squad are main stream or even close to holding middle ground views? The New Green Deal is nothing but socialist dreams that come up just short of Communism.
Quote:They let anyone reply to editorial.
Sure, anyone could reply to an editorial, but not everyone's opinion would have been published or even given the time of day.
Quote:They simply advertised that they would give time to anyone who wanted to present the other view point.
That says nothing about guaranteeing that all views would be seen and heard, only that some of them would be presented, usually the ones that fit closest to the views of the news channel. Opposing views I'm sure made the stage, but I'm also postivite that they would select a point of view that wasn't as strong as the other, so they picked the "winner".
Quote:I have been guest on radio talk shows and I have written guest editorials for the local newspaper. I also called in to radio talk shows before there were screeners to weed out opposing points of view.
So a guy who was part of the DNC political machine, picking and choosing who could run in your city was selected to have his point of view in the news... thank you for proving my point.
Quote:You could not even imagine what a left-wing press would be like one for sure it would not have a corporate agenda that is not left-wing.
We have a left-wing press, there is nothing to imagine, it is happening everyday here in the US.
Quote:None of those programs are available in this market. They didn’t last because the corporate sponsors are simply not going to pay to air political views that cost them money.
So what you are saying is that left-wing views don't pay the bills and are not popular?
Quote:While the purpose of Republican party is to make the rich richer. Those are ideas that corporate sponsors support.
That's where you are wrong. The GOP wants to see everyone make more money and pay less taxes. They want everyone to be able to start a business and become a millionaire.
Quote:If the former head of the republican party can’t express the Republican view point than no one can.
You seem to think speaking against Trump is a Republican point of view. That's the point of view of the "never Trumpers", and isn't held by the GOP in general. He can say all he want's, that doesn't mean he is speaking as a member of the RNC.
Quote:Fox News was actively working on Trump campaign with offices in the Whitehouse.
More lies being told. Every major news organization has an "office" in the WH, it's where their reporters hang out and prep their stories.
Quote:They actively advise Trump the best way to con the public. Many of Trump’s employees a were Fox News employees. The best way to get a job in the Whitehouse is to work for Fox News. In fact, some Trump employees kept their job at Fox and worked for Trump. About 99.9% of the stories Fox does on Trump are positive and they drone on for hours about how good that conman Trump is.
You say all this like not one person from the Obama admin left and went to work for any news organization. You really are blind to how things work aren't you?
Quote:And it was Fox News that gave Trump all the questions for the debate and that is the reason Fox News will never be Trusted to hold a debate ever again. Fox News is in business of telling Trump how to answer the softball question they give him.
That is a straight up lie being told to cover for the fact that CNN gave Hillary the debate questions. You have done this before, when Hillary or some left-wing person gets busted doing things, you try and claim Trump was doing the same thing. Provide the proof and stop making the claim.
Quote:See what I was telling about corporate news. Bloomberg is one of the ungodly greedy and his news organization will reflect his view not the left-wing views. When mainstream new stations were set up it was to report the news not to be a political party’s tool.
Bloomberg is the worst kind of leftist, he will believe anything that give him more power and control. He's anti-gun and has spent millions across the US trying to undermine the US Constitution. He tried to ban soda's in NY, that's a control freak with power issues, he is the definition of a nanny state.
Quote:They actually studied the news stories before the election an the mainstream news media actually did more positive stories on Trump then Clinton.
Who did a study and can you provide a link to this study? No you can't because you are lying again, no such study was done with those claims you just made. Where did you find this trash, Vox?
Quote:The pictures of Clinton collapsing were shown on every network. If you can’t believe your eyes you got a problem.
They showed it, but they refused to say there was something wrong wit her, they used her talking points. They never really questioned if she was healthy enough to be President, we were told it was sexist to ask such quesitons.
Quote:Unless you want to lie all the time you can’t report positive news when nothing positive has happened.
That's the problem, the news isn't reporting the good stuff. Stock market is at an all time high, and has been since Trump took office. GDP has grown under Trump despite the tariffs. New trade deal signed with Mexico and Canada, a new phase one trade deal with China. People's income is higher than it was 4 years ago and they are paying less taxes on what they do make. Immigration if finally starting to come under control, Trump has Mexico stopping illegal immigrants at the southern Mexico border instead of allowing them to come up to the US. Things are really good right now, my 401k is through the roof.
Quote: Trump is digging a hole that this country will never get out of.
No, he is filling in the hole created by the socialist Obama, who was giving our country away to other countries. Times are only bad if you are a socialist and you don't see your political dreams coming true.
Quote:Trump is borrowing a trillion dollars year to give huge tax cuts to the ungodly greedy.
Everyone has received a tax cut, including you. What did you make of Obama doubling the national debt from $9 trillion to $20 trillion?
Quote:Our children will be indentured servants to rest of the world.
That was where we were headed under leftist rule. Trump has stopped that because he believes in US sovereignty and doesn't want us tired into a bunch of international agreements that did nothing for the US.
Quote:America was the biggest creditor nation in the world and now we are the biggest debtor nation in the world.
You don't know what you are talking about. This might explain how you are wrong and not properly understanding what is taking place:

Quote:Third world countries can’t hold a light to us. The nation with the greatest wealth has become the poorest nation on the face of the earth just like Trump’s casinos and airlines went bankrupt.
You really are crazy aren't you? We are not even close to what you are claiming, we are still one of the richest countries in the world, no one comes close to what we generate and create. No country exports as much oil and natural gas as the US. We are doing just fine if we can get our out of control socialist spending under control. We need to stop sending so much money to other counties that don't care about our best interests.
Quote:You really should study the history of the thirties when communism became a real political threat in America.
There is some actual truth from you.
Quote:Then you will see where these communists went, after communism got a bad name during the cold war.
Communism didn't get a bad rap, it created it's own bad rap by killing millions of people in the coutries where it was being used. Communism is responsible for almost 100 million deaths in the purges that followed it's rise.
Quote:These card-carrying communists became the new conservatives and founded a movement.
They turned their backs on communism because it's real aims had been exposed, they were lied to and millions died at the hands of communists spreading their lies.
Quote:The Republican party was completely decimated after they caused the Great Depression.
Sorry to tell you, but the GOP didn't start the Great Depression, more lies being told by a communist.
Quote:I know more about the establishment of the conservative movement than most living conservatives. I watched it take shape like an evil witches-brew of the greed of the ungodly greedy and those greedy for power. The people who are conservatives today are not those who have any interest in history or the origin of the modern conservative movement.
You are indeed out of your mind and crazy with pro-communist ideals. You pegged yourself when you tried to claim communism got a bad rap during the cold war. Yeah, bread lines and killing millions of people will cause that to happen and give you a bad rap.
I guess you chose to ignore the truth about communism when the Khrushchev Report was released.
Quote:Let’s call her by her real name, Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum, so everyone will know she is from Russia.
Anyone who has read her books knows she's from Russia, she spoke out against Communism, plain and simple. It's why you spend so much time attacking her, she told the truth about communism and now she must be silenced and discredited. It's a tactic used to discredit people who speek the truth. Religious organizations do the same thing, it's nothing new.
Quote:Zinovyevna philosophy put forth in her book, Atlas Shrugged, is that the ungodly greedy are entitled to the wealth of the nation and the rest of the population of America should be happy with whatever crumbs they decide to throw their way.
That isn't even close to what she says. She says the people who are the wealth generators should be allowed to keep all of what they make, she wasn't a fan of welfare as she say it as nothing more than communism with another name. She didn't believe in forced charity as the leftists do.
Quote:“They are nothing but vicious animals”
Ayn Rand
Why do you leave out the import part of either speechs or court rulings?
Here's the entire portion of what you are being misleading about.
Quote:“I am older than you. Believe me, there is no other way to live on earth. Men are not open to truth or reason. They cannot be reached by a rational argument. The mind is powerless against them. Yet we have to deal with them. If we want to accomplish anything, we have to deceive them into letting us accomplish it. Or force them. They understand nothing else. We cannot expect their support for any endeavor of the intellect, for any goal of the spirit. They are nothing but vicious animals. They are greedy, self-indulgent, predatory dollar-chasers”
She was referring to the leftists and their wanton greed for other people's earnings and money.
Quote:That horrible abomination of a book has shaped the 30- year decline of the American middle class. Her book was a favorite of ungodly greedy who bought hundreds of copies and polluted America with them. This work of fiction did far more to destroy America than any foreign army. This work of fiction is considered the conservative bible. Didn’t I tell you people prefer fiction.
It laid bare the lies of socialism/communism. The only thing she destroyed was those who would change and destroy the US to make it look more like the failed USSR, much like you want to do.
