SEVEN MINUTES WITH RUSH LIMBAUGH
MICHAEL WESTFALL'S THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE WORKER ^ | 7-24-2007 | Paul A. Ibbetson

As a growing debate builds over a Democrat inspired push to resurrect the Fairness Doctrine and artificially decrease the market demand for conservative radio, there may be no better time to pay homage to one of the stalwart radio personalities that personifies the conservative dominance of the airwaves. That individual is Rush Limbaugh.

I have been a Rush Limbaugh listener for many years. As my daily schedule has altered, as does often happen in life, I would listen to different segments of the daily program and enjoy the creative educational environment that Rush seems to create with ease and grace. I would always listen to at least an hour of the show, even in the most hectic of daily schedules, until at one point in my life I found myself in the most peculiar of situations. Yes, that is when a strange and powerful set of forces came together that both limited and increased for me the phenomenon that is known as the Rush Limbaugh experience.

The TV and newspapers are extremely liberal.

Therefore, Rush and talk radio are the ‘fairness doctrine’ implemented by the public!

I have to say that what kept me going after the ‘06 election was Rush. I try to listen every day.

The way to fight the Fairness Doctrine is to insist that, if they insist upon resurrecting it, it apply not just to talk radio, but to all FCC-regulated broadcast media.

I guarantee you ABC/NBC/PBS/SeeBS don't want that to happen.
