The Fairness Doctrine is Dead, Long Live the Fairness Doctrine

The Fairness Doctrine is Dead, Long Live the Fairness Doctrine:

Republican Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa is worried about the future of talk radio. On August 14, Grassley sent a letter to Obama’s FCC chairman Julius Genachowski about concerns he has with the appointment of Mark Lloyd as Associate General Counsel and Chief Diversity Officer. Grassley discussed the Fairness Doctrine with Genachowski before his confirmation by the U.S. Senate and the senator was told by Genachowski that he did not support an effort to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine.

Senator Chuck Grassley was chumped by FCC chairman and loyal member of the Obama commissariat Julius Genachowski.

Problem is, Grassley bought Genachowski’s promise. Genachowski knows full well Mark Lloyd wants to purge talk radio of its conservative ways.

In June 2007, Lloyd wrote a paper entitled The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio for the Center for American Progress, a think tank run by John Podesta, a former Clintonite and head of Obama’s presidential transition team after the 2008 election. CAP is a Soros funded operation. It is also aligned with Democracy Alliance, a Soros organization that funds ACORN and the consistent money losing talk radio operation Air America."
