Rush would be the first to encourage you to do that. NO LAW STOPS YOU."<br /><br />What stops us is science. There are only so many radio frequencies in the air. If you have enough money, you can start a newspaper or even a university. But there aren't any frequencies left because the big corporations snapped them up in 1996 and they aren't selling.<br /><br />(Their very scarcity is why they are deemed public property, and why broadcasters must legally "serve the public interest" in order to get a broadcast license. <br /><br />So fine, if Clear Channel is willing to sell us a 50,000 watt station in Sacramento for a properly appraised price, we will raise the funds.<br /><br />Otherwise we will continue to demand our rights to have our voices heard on the microphones on OUR public airwaves.Sue Wilson Reportshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13872982849560848770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373737876997780530.post-19171580875342088822011-12-15T20:46:55.074-08:002011-12-15T20:46:55.074-08:00Sue, Rush may be a blowhard, but it is a free coun...Sue, Rush may be a blowhard, but it is a free country, and there is nobody stopping liberals from starting their own network and taking on the right wing. <br /><br />Air America failed once, but so try it again! Rush would be the first to encourage you to do that. NO LAW STOPS YOU. <br /><br />And by the way, radio ownership limits were lifted under the Clinton administration. He supported it. It's the most conservative thing he ever did. That's what ruined radio. Not the repeal of the fairness doctrine.<br /><br />But let me repeat - it is legal to have your own left wing show and never allow right wing commentary. If you don't have the money and can't find supporters, well, that's too bad. Try, try again. That's the American way. <br /><br />Forced fairness is never fair, and besides both sides deal in rhetoric and very few facts. <br /><br />Also, you said it yourself (as has Rush), he's an entertainer, not a politician. Maybe spend more time encouraging people to research candidates and vote for the best one? Based on something more than race or looks. <br /><br />People don't have time to research candidates, sadly, so they DO go by race or looks or religion. And most have figured out that ALL politicians promise one thing and deliver another. <br /><br />That's sadder than Rush being on 365/24/7.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
