Public hearings would instead be used to drag unfavorables like Rush Limbaugh before the Commission to "explain how they justify" their availing themselves of their First Amendment rights. And to threaten their stations' broadcast licenses should they fail the FCC's definition of "justification."

I look forward to the day when any person tries to have a show trial and put rush in the docket....let’s see who thinks they can out talk Rush on the issues.
That would be hilarious in the extreme.
Rush should be shouting “oh, don’t throw me in the briar patch!!”

Al Sharpton is NOT part of the FCC and this race baiting hustler should not be calling the shots.

Soviet Union under Stalin.
And until the time comes that we fight the left like they fight us, we will continue with this crap.

Just the fact that the FCC would put up with the race pimp's "McCarthyism" is enough to show that the FCC is one of the government agencies that needs to be shut down.

They don't have the gonads to drag Rush before their commission.
They know he would make mince meat of them.

How do white people eat? Who the L ever thought to observe people of different colors to know how they eat?
Chopsticks and silverware are pretty much the only differences I can think of.

The FCC muzzling Rush or any other conservative talk radio show is a definite casus belli for me (yes that kind). I'm just saying.

I will never forgive Sean Hannity for giving this pig a nearly daily television forum during the 2006 election cycle.

The GOP in the House should cut the FCC's funding completely, but they won't. These guys aren't going to compromise in the next couple of years, but instead will ratchet things up a couple of notches.

I agree, they’d be making a big mistake if they took on Rush. They probably won’t, but will start with a smaller, weaker target.
