Somehow I must be missing something. Isn't NPR and PBS 99% represented by Democrats, minorities, and the left? The left would lose them if the Fairness Doctrine was implemented...I wouldn't mind seeing Rush or Beck on PBS or listening to them on NPR. (...some sarcasm here)

Don't think that's gonna happen.

Someone at FCC will have to judge and decide which show is "biased" and needs "balance", and the Dems will make sure he's one of their own. By their reckoning, PBS and NPR are bias-free and to allow a right-wing conservative to speak would only destroy their "balance".

Count on it.
