Rush and Sean could go off the air...

From NY's Congresswoman Louise Slaughter-
H.R. 501, The MEDIA Act (Meaningful Expression of Democracy in America)

Democrats will be working hard on this bill...get ready as they are going to try and shut down all Conservative Talk Radio. Example.

"When asked whether television and radio stations that use public airwaves should be required to present the sides of an issue in a reasonably balanced way -- including giving time to opposing points of view -- fully 77% say that they should, and only 17% say that they should not."

WHAT THIS LEGISLATION WOULD DO
The MEDIA Act would reinstate the Fairness Doctrine for broadcasters holding licenses from the Federal Communications Commission. This change would ensure that broadcasters present discussions of conflicting views on issues of public importance.
