An interesting place to find news and our commentary on it. Journalism is an awesome field, but a lot of people ruin it. So this is us saying STFU.
FCC to Delete ‘Fairness Doctrine’
From the WSJ:
Federal regulators will propose removing the “Fairness Doctrine,” a controversial, if little used, regulation on political speech from the books this week, the Federal Communications Commission said Monday.
The Fairness Doctrine, which has been around since 1949, required licensed broadcasters to give equal time to differing political views. The rule was introduced during an era in which there were far fewer media outlets and regulators wanted to ensure that listeners had access to both sides of political debate.
The FCC abandoned the policy in 1987 during the Reagan administration, saying it violated broadcasters’ free speech rights, but the regulation remained on the books.

Libertarians, let’s just go and move to a floating pod in the ocean and start humanity over again. Let’s live like it’s the end of the world, UTOPIA. Silicon Valley billionaire is giving money to start one. LET’S GO.
OMG, an actual Republican, with an actual plan. But I thought that defaulting was not important, that’s what your leader Preibus says.
Anyways.
“massive plan to cut the nation’s deficit by $9 trillion over the coming decade, including $1 trillion in tax increases opposed by most of his fellow Republicans.” He is calling the plan, ‘Back in Black’.
OK, Republican Senator from Oklahoma, a.k.a., Tom Coburn, what’s the plan?
“proposals like raising to 70 the age at which people can claim their full Social Security benefits. It would cut farm subsidies, Medicare, student aid, housing subsidies for the poor, and funding for community development grants. Coburn even takes on the powerful veterans’ lobby by proposing that some veterans pay more for medical care and prescription drugs.”
Coburn even threw out a year like 2080, that is how far into the future he is looking.
When everyone on Tumblr will be dead.
You cut education to college students, America will have no future. You cut money to veterans, you will not have people willingly volunteering in your armies. AND YOU CANNOT CUT FUNDING TO THE POOR, that is the opposite of a future.
Back in Black- AC/DC will be very upset at you.
It’s a Priebus kind of night.
So, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is desperate.
He wants, nay, he needs more candidates to run against Obama. Cause, honestly, the motley crew out right now is not cutting it.
Herman Caine makes a fool of himself talking about closing down mosques and confusing separation of church and state.
Michele Bachman’s clinic not only takes government money to ‘pray away the gay,’ but her family also squeezes farm subsidies. She is a contradiction onto herself, and she says God talks to her.
Mitt Romney is Mormon, not that I have anything wrong with that, but their beloved tea party does.
