SEN. STABENOW, THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE AND HER HUSBAND
Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) was on a radio talk show today and had the following conversation with Bill Press:
BILL PRESS: Yeah, I mean, look: They have a right to say that. They’ve got a right to express that. But, they should not be the only voices heard. So, is it time to bring back the Fairness Doctrine?
SENATOR DEBBIE STABENOW (D-MI): I think it’s absolutely time to pass a standard. Now, whether it’s called the Fairness Standard, whether it’s called something else — I absolutely think it’s time to be bringing accountability to the airwaves. I mean, our new president has talked rightly about accountability and transparency. You know, that we all have to step up and be responsible. And, I think in this case, there needs to be some accountability and standards put in place.
BILL PRESS: Can we count on you to push for some hearings in the United States Senate this year, to bring these owners in and hold them accountable?
SENATOR DEBBIE STABENOW (D-MI): I have already had some discussions with colleagues and, you know, I feel like that’s gonna happen. Yep.
So she is calling for the Fairness Doctrine or something else with a different name to be enacted or re-enacted to make radio "fair" and "accountable." Perhaps Sen. Stabenow has never read the Constitution. Heck, she doesn't even need to read the whole thing. All she needs to read is the 1st Amendment. Here, I'll post it for her.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or
abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition
the Government for a redress of grievances.
Now the fun part.....fun in the liberals are friggin idiots sense. Sen Stabenow's husband, Tom Athans is a liberal talk radio executive. He was a co-founder of Democracy Radio. That failed. He then went to work for Air America as their Executive Vice-President. That also failed. Then he co-founded TalkUSA Radio.
Point is.....her husband keeps getting involved in all of these failed liberal radio enterprises. Maybe....just maybe she's sick of seeing her husband fail time and time again. Perhaps she thinks the fairness doctrine can finally make one of his enterprises successful. Even with the fairness doctrine, liberal radio will continue to be a miserable failure. No one wants to listen to people whine and moan all day.....and that's what liberal radio is.
Maybe she just wants one of his liberal radio businesses to work so that he stays busy and away from the hookers. And no that's not a nasty joke. Google his name and prostitution.
