Feinstein Believes Only Liberals Provide Correct Reporting
by Big Dog on Jun 25, 2007 at 08:28 Uncategorized
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), war profiteer, was on Fox News Sunday discussing the fairness doctrine. In case you are unfamiliar, the Fairness Doctrine is a bit of legislation that required equal points of view in broadcast. So for every hour Rush Limbaugh discusses Conservative ideas the Liberals get time to present opposing views. Basically, this is legislation that forces Liberal views on people who do not want to hear them. It is only logical to conclude that if people who listened to talk radio wanted to listen to Liberal points of view, the market for Liberal talk radio would be big. Instead, Liberal talk radio performs miserably in nearly every market ala Err Amerika.
Feinstein said she was looking into reviving the Fairness Doctrine (which is really an unfair doctrine when you think about it) to provide balance. She said she believes in fairness (especially when she is doling out defense contracts to her husband) and that people should be allowed to hear varied points of view. I will agree that is the case but I think it is up to the people, not the government, to decide what they want to listen to. If they want equal time from Liberals then Liberals can start radio programs that give those points of view. The reality is, no one wants to listen to that stuff. It is also interesting to note that when Liberals are getting the advantage, Feinstein does not ask for fairness. Witness the major television news outlets who are overwhelmingly Liberal friendly. There has been no call for them to be “fair” and Conservatives started Fox News to counter the other networks which is how a market is supposed to work.
Anyway, Feinstein does not really believe in fairness as much as she believes that only liberals can report accurately. In the Interview she said; “I remember when there was a Fairness Doctrine. I think there was much more serious, correct reporting to people.” What she is saying is that the way it is now is not as serious and not correct, compared to what happened when Liberals were given equal time under the fairness Doctrine. In other words, only Liberals can report things to us seriously and correctly.
If that is the case, why is there not a market for Liberal talk? Perhaps is is because most of America, all through the Heartland, is not thrilled with Liberalism and people do not believe Liberals. One only needs to look at the Electoral map to see that the Northeast and the Left Coast are Liberal enclaves while the rest of America is Conservative.
Perhaps Dianne is just unhappy that talk radio discussed her war profiteering and there were no outlets for her to rationalize her illegal behavior. She just wants a Fairness Doctrine so she has a fair shot at lying about gaining millions of dollars in wealth because of her position and off the hard work of our military.
I have my own version of the Fairness Doctrine and it goes like this. For every Republican that goes to jail for corruption a corrupt Democrat has to go to jail as well. We can start by putting Feinstein in a cell next to Randy Cunningham.
