Representative Maurice Hinchey (D-N.Y.) and Senator Bernie Sanders (S-Vermont) are sponsoring the Media Ownership Reform Act (MORA) as a vehicle for restoring the Fairness Doctrine. Under this bill, if Rush Limbaugh shoots his mouth off, he must give equal access to our side, Hinchey said. The American public will begin to get both sides or all sides of an issue. That is basic fundamental to a democracy.
Critics have dubbed the bill the Hush Rush Law. But Hinchey contends his bill is even-handed. The right-wingers over at CBS, NBC, and the rest will all be required to give access to our side, Hinchey insisted. Government control over what the media says is the only way we can head-off a fascist takeover of America.

I wonder if this twit can even see the irony of his statement.
Or no political opinions would be offered which will help ignorance. We would go back to talk shows that were bland, boring and a lot about nothing. we would get our liberal indoctrination from the MSM.
“Hinchey insisted. Government control over what the media says is the only way we can head-off a fascist takeover of America.
The irony is dripping from this guys ears.
