Well...that is too bad. I was looking forward to hearing Michael Savage and Rush Limbaugh get their equal time on Air America. :)

The Federal Communications Commission has no intention of reinstating the Fairness Doctrine imposing a requirement of balanced coverage of issues on public airwaves, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said.

Along with Martin's statements regarding open access requirements for the 700 MHz spectrum auction, this represents an unusual triumph for individuals instead of politicians or telcos in the FCC's decision making.

Pence, in a joint statement with Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., welcomed Martin's position but said Congress should still pass his legislation so that no future administration or FCC chairman could revive the doctrine without an act of Congress.

I hope Pence makes his legislation also state "without a super-majority vote in Congress."

Several Democratic lawmakers suggested that Congress take another look at the doctrine after conservative radio talk show hosts aggressively attacked an immigration reform bill when it was on the Senate floor, contributing to its defeat.

Aww... Poor Democrats. How dare private citizens challenge their authority using Constitutionally-protected speech!!!!!
