When Rush says “State run media”, I always used to think it was hyperbolic compared to actual State run medias like China’s, but with the mindset of these Democrat fascists, I think we are getting closer to actual State run media in this country. Democrats are certainly no good faith friends of the First Amendment for all, apparently.

Since Barry the Fraud was elected, the totalitarian statists have come out of the woodwork.

Mark their names. Remember who they are.

The last time I looked, books were produced on printing presses.

The 1st Amendment does not say “newspapers”. It says that freedom of the “press” shall not be abridged.

Ryan is feisty. Why doesn’t he take this motley bunch to court?

“... Democrats move to tighten the so-called “media exemption” that lets the press cover politics any way they want.”

Well, which press is the issue. For sure they won’t review and give “oversight” to left leaning press.

Mother Jones and Kos celebrate. ..

Specifically what are the FEC regulations doing or proposing to do? And who are the people behind it ?

The FEC tried to ban a documentary!!! Now had it been a liberal documentary the Left would have gone even more nuts.

Frankly, I bet most critics of Citizens United have no idea the FEC tried to ban a political documentary. The ones I’ve encountered have no clue what Citizens United is about!!

...and has noted how Democrats on the panel have been eager to nick at freedoms for conservative media while Republicans have been voting for broader protections even for liberals...

About sums it all up right there, don't it?

If liberal values are superior — then why attempt to censor opposing viewpoints? A truly superior ideology should welcome opposing views so that a comparison can be made.

Equally disturbing is the desire to trample the rights and freedoms of others — which should be a sufficient red flag to call into question the entire ideology — based on this mindset alone!
